Fire conditions of the safety valve on liquid ammonia storage tanks

2016-09-20View Original

Thread Content

In an independent liquid ammonia tank area without other material storage tanks, is it necessary to consider fire conditions for the safety valves? Liquid ammonia is difficult to ignite; GB50058 states that the explosion risk can be disregarded in outdoor environments, so I believe there is no need to consider fire scenarios. I hope everyone will share their opinions

It is still necessary if it is connected to the system, because dissolved hydrogen and nitrogen gases inside will be released; or after separation, they will remain in the upper space where they can cause combustion and explosions. However, there is fire-fighting water on site, and fire extinguishers will also be available! ! :victory:
