Protection of Floating Roof Petroleum Storage Tanks against Lightning Strokes
The subject of petroleum storage tank fires has gained a great deal of attention due to the high cost of petroleum, and the consequent disruption of petroleum production; therefore, much of the current research has focused on petroleum storage tank fires. Also, the number of petroleum tank fires is oscillating between 15 and 20 fires per year. About 33% of all tank fires are attributed to light...
متن کاملBuckling of Aboveground Storage Tanks with Conical Roof
The buckling of aboveground circular steel tanks with conical roof is considered in this paper. The specific source of loads investigated is wind action during hurricane storms in the Caribbean islands. The structure is modeled using a finite element discretization with the computer package ALGOR. Bifurcation buckling of the shell is computed for a given static wind pressure distribution. Then ...
متن کاملDesign and Study of Floating Roofs for Oil Storage Tanks
Floating roofs are widely used to store petroleum products with high volatility. This is to prevent the product loss and to ensure safe environment around the storage tanks. However, small number of researches were accomplished. These researches aim at study the design of the floating roof and the associated risks that it faces during operation. In an effort to compensate the lack of knowledge ...

متن کاملSettling-Thickening Tanks
Settling-thickening tanks are used to achieve separation of the liquid and solid fractions of faecal sludge (FS). They were fi rst developed for primary wastewater treatment, and for clarifi cation following secondary wastewater treatment, and it is the same mechanism for solids-liquid separation as that employed in septic tanks. Settling-thickening tanks for FS treatment are rectangular tanks,...
