What is the maximum diameter requirement for the piping used to transport tetrafluoroethylene monomer?
Thread Content
Question: Is there a rule stating that the diameter of the pipelines for transporting tetrafluoroethylene monomer cannot be too large? Are there any safety risks associated with larger pipe diameters (such as those above DN100)? What is the basis?
There is indeed a constraint that the pipelines for transporting tetrafluoroethylene monomer cannot be too large; larger pipe diameters, such as those above DN100, increase the risk of a large volume of flammable gas being generated in the event of a leak, which could lead to explosion hazards. The basis is the safety operating procedures for chemical production and the safety standards for pipeline design. .
