Do the unloading compressors still need to be one in use and one as a backup?

As the title suggests, unloading of ethylene-based liquefied gas. Calculations show that 5 vehicles per day are sufficient. So the conditions set were one parking space and one flex hose. So, does the unloading compressor also need to have one in operation and one as a backup? Thank you!

For continuously operating equipment, it depends on the requirements – whether a backup is needed or not

The redundancy of equipment generally depends on the impact on the system and the investment in the equipment. Personally, I think it’s a bit tight if 5 vehicles need to be unloaded every day, using just one crane position. Based on this, it can be preliminarily inferred that property owners place considerable importance on investment. So it is recommended to use just one compressor; there’s no need for additional equipment

Private enterprises focus on saving on investments. Anyway, if the owner feels it’s not enough later on, they can buy more. Well, thank you for your reply. You answered our two questions today. It seems you’re a kind-hearted person in everyday life.

The loading and unloading of ethylene-based liquefied gas tankers falls under the category of hazardous chemicals; strictly speaking, comprehensive facilities and systems are required for this purpose. Refer to Linyi Jinyu Petrochemical for the consequences
