Should a fire dike be installed for the storage tanks or reaction vessels used to store flammable liquids in the production workshop?
Thread Content
I would like to ask whether a fire dike is required for storage tanks or reaction vessels used to store flammable liquids on the floor of the production workshop, with a storage capacity of 10 tons.
Facilities such as slopes to prevent the spread of flammable liquids in case of leaks, as well as recovery systems, should be installed.
If fire dikes are installed around all the equipment in the device, how can it be operated? The leakage issue should be addressed through comprehensive consideration of the manufacturing process to ensure safe production. Sometimes, the question of what to do in case of a similar leak is itself a false premise.
Set up the cofferdam in accordance with the requirements of GB50160.
There is no need to set up a firewall dike. However, facilities such as those to prevent liquid dispersion, drainage ditches, and a \"clean wastewater\" tank for emergency situations should be installed.
Does your factory’s workshop use 10 tons per day? I have also been working on the issue of cofferdams in our area recently; for now, only the storage tank area can be handled in accordance with the relevant standards, while the cofferdams for the workshops can only be designed by referring to the \"Equipment Layout for Process Units\" guidelines. GB50160 only introduces the concept of a fire dike.
This reminds me of the need to install dikes around areas where major hazards exist, such as liquid chlorine storage tanks, so that in the event of a leak, alkaline solutions can be applied systematically for treatment.
Are the floors in the production workshop used for storing tanks containing flammable liquids? What material is it? Moreover, as for a quantity of 10 tons, it’s not certain whether it’s allowed by the regulations

Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises GB50160-2008, 5.2.28: Around equipment areas where there is a risk of leakage or spillage of flammable liquids during startup, shutdown, or maintenance operations, dikes and liquid diversion facilities with a height of not less than 150 mm should be installed.
