Innovation in leak prevention devices developed by pipeline design institute receives patent approval According to China Chemical News, the “leak prevention device based on storage media” developed and submitted by China National Petroleum Pipeline Engineering Co., Ltd. (the pipeline design institute) has been granted a patent approval by the **Intellectual Property Office. 　　Non-degradable storage media such as crude oil and refined products are usually stored in tanks. However, due to the tendency of these tanks to corrode or suffer from quality issues, leaks at the bottom of the tanks can occur, leading to severe contamination of groundwater and the surrounding environment. Therefore, it is necessary to implement leak-proof design measures for the ground in areas where such tanks are installed. This patent provides a leakage prevention device based on a storage medium, which can detect leaks in storage tanks as well as any damage to the leakage prevention device, thereby improving the effectiveness of preventing leaks from the storage medium. Compared with traditional leakage prevention technologies, this device offers better leakage prevention performance, and it can address issues such as the difficulty in promptly detecting damage or failure of the leakage prevention membrane, as well as the challenges associated with its repair and replacement.
