Evaporation of liquids in the accident pool
Thread Content
The accident pond may contain some volatile toxic and harmful liquids that float on the surface of the water. If these are not collected, could exposure to the summer sun lead to high concentrations of toxic and harmful gases in the area around the accident pond? Is there a good solution? Thank you
Collection of sewage and waste gases, with lids – discussed in relevant posts under the environmental protection category last year
Once the water is pumped out and replaced with tap water, there’s no need to worry.
The water from the accident pool must be promptly sent to the wastewater treatment plant for processing. If there are still odors and organic substances, wash and displace them with water, and then send the mixture to the wastewater treatment plant for processing.
According to the regulations on the management of accident ponds, an accident pond is a temporary reservoir used in case of an accident; under normal conditions, no liquid is allowed to be present in it – strictly speaking, it remains an empty pond that sits exposed to the sun. If wastewater is temporarily discharged due to an accident, it must be treated as soon as possible and the function of the accident tank restored. It is recommended to process the pool’s liquid as soon as possible and replace it.
For example, in the methanol tank area, putting some water in the accident pool – is that beneficial if methanol leaks and ends up in that pool? The water in the accident pool can dilute the leaked methanol, reducing the risk of combustion explosions.
