What is the vapor emission rate of a 300-ton oil tank? A few questions! Please help!

Hello. May I ask, for a 300-ton vertical gasoline tank used in the production of blended gasoline (which is made by using naphtha as the base oil and then adding aromatics, 90-octane gasoline, MTBE, and certain proportions of additives), ) During this process, how far can the oil and gas evaporated from the vents of the oil tanks to maintain normal pressure travel? 2. If there are four oil tanks, each with a capacity of 300 tons, and one tank is filled after another, with mixing taking place at the same time, will more volatile oil vapor be produced? (Taking 900 tons as an example, with three tanks filled) Or will more volatile oil vapor be produced if all four tanks are filled, with 225 tons in each tank, and mixing is carried out simultaneously? 3. How much oil can a 300-ton oil tank hold at most? 4. What tests are required for blended gasoline? Beyond meeting emission standards, is it necessary to test the levels of various components in it, such as benzene and sulfur, before it can be sold on the market? Thank you!

It is said that this is a problem in physical chemistry, and one needs to calculate the surface tension in order to determine the saturated vapor pressure. . . . Then it is calculated using the external temperature and pressure. . . . I’ll stop talking; I haven’t mastered this yet

It’s so complicated! ! ! I can’t do it! !

I’ve encountered the same problem as well and am thinking about it.

It’s time to get off work. A quick glance at it suggests that it’s not easy to calculate this; it’s likely a fluid dynamics problem related to the operating conditions at the time, environmental conditions, wind speed, and so on.
