Storage and handling forms of liquid sulfur dioxide
Thread Content
How is liquid sulfur dioxide stored? If stored in tanks, what methods are used for unloading and transportation?
Reply to 1# syy821029: A carbon steel storage tank will suffice; transfer can be done via pressure difference or with a pump. The choice of pump depends on the level of residues in the product, and the unloading procedures are the same as mentioned above. Typical manufacturing companies will provide specific operation plans.
With a pump? ? Don’t mislead people.;P With 8 kilograms of pressure, it can be sent anywhere.
Due to the high pressure, much of it is stored in steel cylinders, which makes it relatively safer.
Reply to 5# DCY1973: Thank you. We used to purchase cylinders for storage as well, but now we find that using cylinders is too costly; therefore we want to use tank trucks for transportation. This brings up the need to consider storage in tanks, as well as the process of unloading from the tank trucks and transporting the sulfur dioxide to the areas where it is used.
Reply to 6# syy821029: May I ask where the products mentioned above are used? Regarding storage tanks, it is necessary for the manufacturing company to provide relevant parameters and details, which will help to avoid many unnecessary problems during future use and maintenance. For delivery to the device, pressure transmission can be considered, as well as factors such as usage volume
We first compress it into a large tank using a compressor, and then push it into the steel cylinder through pressure difference

Reply 1# syy821029: Store it in an iron tank, using a pressure vessel with a capacity of one ton.
Liquid sulfur dioxide is relatively easy to liquefy; the storage pressure generally does not exceed 0.6 MPa, and storage can be carried out using steel tanks made of 16MnR material. For external sales, tank trucks or cylinders are generally used; tank trucks come in various sizes, while cylinders range from half a ton to 1 ton in capacity. Transportation can be achieved using system pressure or by pressurizing with a shielded pump.
