Methanol storage tanks and pipelines
Thread Content
It’s a small project; the client wants to install a 50m3 methanol tank to provide the raw material for production. 1. Methanol tanks are required to be installed underground. Which specifications should be referred to for the design of methanol tanks? 2. What material should be used for the pipes used to transport methanol? 3. The client intends to use a pump for transporting methanol; would a submersible pump be more suitable for this purpose? Since his tank is buried, I’m not sure how the pump should be installed
Carbon steel can be used for tanks and pipes; the type of pump depends on the client’s requirements. If it is possible, it should be installed on the ground to facilitate maintenance and operation
