Methanol unloading and methanol bottling
Thread Content
Methanol bottling: Use the normal loading process, close the ball valve before the dip pipe, add a 0.2m straight pipe, a valve, and a quick connector in front of the ball valve; by connecting a hose, bottling can be accomplished. Process for unloading methanol from a vehicle: From the methanol vehicle – through the hose – to the newly added interface in front of the loading arm – to the bypass pipelines for the flow meter and filter – to the outlet of the methanol loading pump – to the inlet of the methanol pump – to the methanol tank. Process for filling methanol into barrels: From the methanol tank – through the loading pump – to the quick connection for filling barrels – to the methanol barrels. The process up to the newly added interface remains the same as the normal loading process; simply close the ball valve located under the loading arm. Directly connect a hose from the new interface to the tank opening
I would like to ask the original poster how to solve the issue of finding time What type of pump is it? Thank you
Installing an submersible pump at the front end of the flexible hose can effectively resolve the air blockage problem caused by methanol evaporation, which should reduce the need for vacuuming. Please contact me for information on submersible pumps and flexible hoses.
Methanol is a polar substance; according to the approach suggested by the original poster, it is also necessary to take into account the static electricity issues that arise during transportation, as fires can occur if there is no grounding: L
The unloading process used by the poster is not very reasonable; flow meters and other devices are installed at the pump inlet, which causes high pressure drops and affects the pump’s ability to draw in fluid.
Everyone has spoken very well; the methanol project under construction at my company is of great help to me.
Metal hoses are preferably used during the transfer of methanol. During the unloading and bottling of methanol, the owner arranged for flow meters to be used for measurement; however, in practice, weighing the tank trucks is generally employed, after which a transfer pump is used to pump the liquid into the storage tanks. If it is to be filled into barrels, gravity feeding is used.
Could you provide an image for a detailed explanation? Mainly, it’s also necessary to explain the selection of equipment and the calculation procedures!
Our company uses methanol, and it’s quite helpful
It seems that a submersible pump would be better, but for our bottom-discharge type, we still need to install a buffer tank in front of the pump. To prevent the pump from running dry!
Centrifugal pumps can run idle for a short time, as can barrel pumps.
