Regarding the design of liquefied petroleum gas storage tanks
Thread Content
What aspects should be considered in the design of liquefied petroleum gas storage tanks? Thank you.
1. Size issue. It is necessary to address production or supply issues, consider cost-effectiveness, and adapt measures to local conditions. 2. Safety and environmental protection issues. Consider the impact on the surrounding environment, how to prevent fires and explosions, how to handle and evacuate in case of such incidents, how to deal with leaks, the installation and layout of fire-fighting equipment and facilities, emergency water tanks, etc.
The design pressure is determined in accordance with fixed capacity specifications; note the allowable limit for hydrogen sulfide. The pipe flanges use a combination of butt-welded flanges, high-strength bolts, and wound gaskets.
Material in normalized condition； The welded structure features full penetration ； 100% radiographic inspection ； Overall heat treatment ； Airtightness test
What are the components of liquefied petroleum gas? What is the saturated vapor pressure? What are the limitations on the filling factor? Thank you.
On the Internet, you can search for a book titled NB/T 47001-2009 (JB/T4713) – Design Requirements for Horizontal Steel Liquefied Petroleum Gas Storage Tanks and Their Basic Parameters; the design requirements are outlined in this book.
Must the material for LPG storage tanks be normalized steel plate? ? ?
If the drawing references standard HG/T20581-2011, normalized plate should be selected. Unless otherwise specified, hot-rolled sheet can be used
