How to temporarily store small amounts of light oil
Thread Content
We use naphtha as raw material; upon receipt, it is checked for water content. A small amount of oil is discharged, and our approach is to collect this oil in large tanks for subsequent processing. However, due to the small quantity, it takes a long time before it needs to be processed again. Is this approach correct? Is it safe to store it in a large barrel for an extended period of time?
Could you explain the relevant handling methods in more detail? In principle, it shouldn’t be a problem if the quantity is small. Talking about how our company handles this might be helpful to you: Our company has a temporary storage area for hazardous chemicals; it’s used to collect hazardous waste generated at the production site or in the laboratory. Once a certain amount has accumulated, it is taken away by specialized waste disposal companies for processing. 1. We have an overall plan for this area, which specifies the maximum amount of waste that can be stored there, and relevant signs as well as hazard signs are installed in the area； There is a register at the entrance, which is checked regularly. I guess your situation is similar to ours, so there shouldn’t be any major problems. Just be careful to store them in a designated place, separate from other types of items.
