Calculation of fire-fighting water for ethylene oxide (liquefied hydrocarbon) storage tanks

2009-08-10View Original

Thread Content

In small chemical plants, there’s simply no space for storage tanks according to the new petrochemical regulations. If fire protection measures are to be considered based on building codes, should Class A liquids or liquefied petroleum gas be taken into account? And how should the corresponding amount of water required for fire suppression be calculated?

**The thresholds are being gradually raised to restrict market access for small chemical projects. Temporarily, there seems to be no other option; we have to follow the Building Code. Calculate the fire-fighting water demand based on liquefied petroleum gas.

Agree with the opinion above; it should be calculated based on liquefied petroleum gas

How to impose restrictions? Those who have been to Zibo or Linyi on the second floor know that there are hundreds or even thousands of small factories that invest 1 to 2 million yuan each.
