Carbon 5 storage and transportation requirements
Thread Content
Dear sea friends, those of you who have experience with the storage and transportation of Carbon 5 – what kind of tanks are suitable for storing it? Has it been pumped? What kind of vehicle is used for transportation?
For spherical tanks, a dehydration tank is required below the tank; during cleaning, the tank is purged with nitrogen and steamed at 1.0 MPa.
For spherical tanks, the tank trucks used are those for transporting liquefied hydrocarbons.
Thank you, OP, and thank you to the visitors; I’ve learned something.
There are specialized vehicles for road transport, and there are also specialized vehicles for train transport, though they are longer; each crane position at the quay requires 14 meters. There are many specialized pumps.
In our facility, Carbon 5 is stored in spherical tanks with a design pressure of 0.66. When mixed with raffinate oil, it is stored in internal floating roof tanks.
