First, nitrogen is introduced to maintain a slight positive pressure inside the tank, preventing air from entering and causing oxidation of methanol; Second, nitrogen can be used for displacement during maintenance.

For tanks without a nitrogen seal, can introducing nitrogen during maintenance be sufficient to achieve proper purging and meet the maintenance standards?

Reply to 3# zeng46563: It is best to use water addition for the displacement method, as this ensures a more thorough displacement!
