As products, how large should the storage tanks be for ethylene and propylene? How many days’ worth of ethylene or propylene should be stored in these tanks? 》? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Generally, depending on your production volume, you have about 15 days of storage capacity; it should usually be more than 10 days.
Master Ji: For ethylene and propylene, are there any special requirements regarding the storage tanks used?
Reply 1# jzhanghailongj Usually 15 days
If the storage tank is very large, you can also calculate based on the time required to complete the work phase; you can use a two-hour downtime period for such calculations, and it’s common to design multiple storage tanks in engineering projects
If the storage time is 15 days, your storage tanks and those for methanol raw material will be very large; in the entire plant area, only a few tanks will be visible, which looks unbalanced… Our teacher said that seven days is sufficient for our village……
Reply to 4# lsl343952854: We need to take high pressure and low temperature into account!
Three days will suffice, taking into account factors such as production volume, downstream sales volume, and the cost of storage tank equipment
