Issues regarding the loading and unloading of tetrachloroethylene and carbon tetrachloride
Thread Content
Currently, work is being done on the design of the loading and unloading system for a tetrachloroethylene project, which includes unloading raw carbon tetrachloride and loading the finished tetrachloroethylene. I would like to know what special precautions are required when handling these two substances during loading and unloading, such as the procedures for loading/unloading and considerations related to piping. Could you provide some information on the relevant handling procedures? Thank you!
Could you tell me about the design for that company? Is it about converting carbon tetrachloride into tetrachloroethylene?
Reply 1# maohaibo: The poster is probably referring to the unloading of tank trucks; generally, two pumps are required. During unloading, connect the pump’s suction inlet to the bottom of the tank truck to remove the gas from the discharge pipeline ； Then start the pump to transport the material ； At the end, make sure to reduce the valve at the pump outlet. When the liquid level in the tank truck is very low, the pressure gauge at the pump outlet will fluctuate sharply; in such cases, the valve should be closed and then reopened quickly. The process is relatively simple.
Can carbon tetrachloride still be used? Since its production and use have been banned internationally, how can your project be built?
