How to remove static electricity from acetic acid storage tanks?

2018-11-02View Original

Thread Content

In our company, the acetic acid storage tanks and pipelines are made of 304+PTFE. The feed to the tanks is done from the top, without any insertion pipes (the vertical section of the tank is 5 meters high; if insertion pipes were used inside the tank, it would be impossible to secure them). Is there any way to address the static electricity that arises during the feeding process?

If the shaking isn’t too severe, a metal conductive tube can be inserted opposite the feed inlet (for example, titanium?) I don’t understand this) Slightly larger in diameter.

If it is a device that has already been installed. Taking drastic action now might affect normal production operations. Pipelines and between pipelines can be electrostatically bonded using clamps and copper wires. As for the storage tank, check whether there is an electrostatic grounding wire; if not, a connection point needs to be found to lead it away.
