Self Bunded Diesel Fuelcube Storage Tank Sale For Ecuador

The following are some measures that Diesel Fuelcube Storage Tank takes to deal with extreme cold waves:
1. Tank insulation
Effective insulation of the tank is the key. Insulation materials such as rock wool and polyurethane foam can be installed on the surface of the tank. These materials have good thermal insulation properties, can reduce the heat loss of gasoline in the tank, and slow down the rate of oil temperature drop. At the same time, the inlet and outlet pipes, valves and other parts of the tank should also be insulated to prevent these parts from freezing due to low temperature and affecting the normal transportation of gasoline.
2. Heating measures
A heating device can be set to maintain the temperature of the gasoline in the tank. Common heating methods include electric heating and steam heating. Electric heating converts electrical energy into thermal energy to heat the gasoline through electric heating elements installed in the tank or on the tank wall; steam heating uses steam pipes to introduce steam into the heating coil in the tank to increase the gasoline temperature through heat exchange. Before the extreme cold wave comes, start the heating device in advance to maintain the gasoline temperature within a suitable range, generally keeping it at 5℃ - 10℃, to prevent the gasoline from becoming viscous due to low temperature and affecting its fluidity.
3. Inspection and maintenance
Before the cold wave arrives, conduct a comprehensive inspection and maintenance of the storage tank. Focus on checking the sealing performance of the tank body to ensure that there are no leaks, so as to prevent gasoline from solidifying due to low temperature after leakage, causing safety accidents. At the same time, check the operating conditions of valves, pumps and other equipment to ensure that they can work normally in a low temperature environment. Calibrate and check measuring instruments such as liquid level gauges and thermometers to ensure that their readings are accurate so that the status of the gasoline in the tank can be grasped in time.
4. Emergency plan
Develop a comprehensive emergency plan to deal with possible emergencies. For example, when the heating device fails or the tank insulation effect is not good, resulting in the gasoline temperature being too low, the backup heating equipment should be started immediately or temporary insulation measures should be taken. At the same time, organize relevant personnel to conduct emergency drills, familiarize themselves with the operating procedures of the emergency plan, improve their ability to respond to emergencies such as extreme cold waves, and ensure that measures can be taken quickly and effectively in an emergency to ensure the safe operation of the storage tank.
