How should the feeding pumps for buried tank groups in a chemical plant be arranged? Are there any guidelines to refer to? Can the feeding pump be installed at the top of the tank?
It seems that they are all installed on the side rather than above; it’s not convenient to carry out maintenance from above
For building codes and petrochemical regulations, it’s best not to have them right above; it’s better to keep a certain distance to the side
Yes, according to the petrochemical regulations, it should also be placed outside the fire dike
Follow the layout specified in the petrochemical design codes; it’s not very difficult. I suggest you take another look at those codes.
If it’s a new project, it’s definitely easy. Right now, I’m conducting a diagnosis of a factory that has been in operation for over a decade, to see if there are any standard criteria that can be used as a basis for evaluation. If nothing else works, have them make corrections
When conducting diagnostics for factories, the process is carried out strictly in accordance with standards and regulations; anything that conflicts with these standards and regulations cannot be approved, and corrective actions must be taken!
That’s how it works! But in small companies, it’s the boss who comes up with ideas and makes the decisions.....
