Is it necessary to install a rupture disc on alcohol storage tanks?

2009-04-03View Original

Thread Content

The alcohol storage tank has a volume of V=800 cubic meters, and it operates under normal temperature and pressure conditions. Is it necessary to install a rupture disc in this tank (in addition to installing a vent flame arrester)? Do anyone have storage tanks for similar types of media?

Since it’s at atmospheric pressure, there’s no need to set it.

No relevant regulations are required; from a safety perspective, it would be better to install explosion-proof valves on top, as the consequences of the tank exploding would be extremely severe
