Does the anti-corrosion treatment of the inner wall of internal floating roof oil tanks involving the use of \"boots and caps\" meet the regulatory requirements?
Thread Content
May I ask, is it in compliance with the standards to apply anti-corrosion treatment only to the bottommost and topmost wall panels of the inner wall of an internal floating roof tank? I’ve seen some oil depots do this. Is full anti-corrosion treatment necessary?
The anti-corrosion location should be determined based on the characteristics of the corrosive medium; I haven’t seen any standard specifications regarding what the original poster mentioned.
In the construction industry, this method is known as \"boots and hats\" corrosion protection; it is mainly used in tanks with internal floating roofs for refined oil. It’s not clear whether there are any relevant design specifications for this
