I am working on the design for a hydrofluoric acid tank area and pipelines; I hope everyone will be kind enough to offer their advice

Hello everyone. I am currently working on the design of a hydrofluoric acid storage area and related pipelines. Given the hazards associated with hydrofluoric acid, I would like to seek your advice on what else should be taken into consideration in terms of flow rates and the design of the storage area, in addition to the requirements outlined in fire safety regulations. What aspects need attention when designing the pipelines?
I have a basic understanding; to put it briefly: 1. All connections are flanged, with pipe thread sealing prohibited. 2. The vent pipe is connected to the acid gas absorption unit (alkali tank), with pH monitoring. 3. Sealed-free pumps should be used for pumping (such as fluorine-lined magnetic pumps: lol). 4. Install leakage spray systems and HF gas leakage alarms, etc. 5. Be sure to have a hexafluorophene first-aid kit on site!
Are there any standards or materials I can refer to?
Okay, feel free to suggest any other ideas
When the time comes, if you need fluorinated pipes and equipment, you can contact me; we can discuss this together
There are introductions to the PTFE-lined process available online, as well as numerous technical documents related to PTFE lining
If it’s convenient, please leave an email address; internal messaging will work as well
Construct cofferdams, build buildings, install emergency scrubbers; treat the surface cofferdams to prevent hydrogen fluoride from seeping in; install alarms and automatic sprinkler systems
