API 650 duplex stainless steel tanks adjustable legs
API 620 Tank Standard Post-heat Treatment (Stress Relief)The post-heat treatment now performed on pressure vessels is of established value, although the mechanism by which the improvement is realized may be open to debate. Post-heat treatment of API 650 duplex stainless steel tanks tank sections when the plate thickness exceeds 11/4 in. is required as stated in 5.25. In special cases, the possibilities of post-heat treatment after erection should be explored. Post-heating an insulated tank may be possible if an ample source of heat is readily available and if the rigidity of the tank is adequate.The thermal stress-relief treatment performed on pressure vessels is recognized as a means for reducing the probability of brittle failures.
The API 650 duplex stainless steel tanks most widely used and most commonly used standard for global storage tank construction and procurement is API 650. The Chinese translation name is "AP1650 Steel Welded Petroleum Storage Tank". API 650 storage tank is for commonly used oil, gasoline, diesel, chemical and production water storage, etc.
Generally, external environment corrosion should be considered before design and construction of API 650 duplex stainless steel tanks and so on storage tanks. The corrosion on the outer surface of storage tank is often worse than that on the inner surface. Especially in the chemical industry area, there are often acid fog, alkali or salt dust in the atmosphere. These impurities form an active corrosive medium with dew or steam and oxygen in the atmosphere. The corrosion of the external environment of the storage tank shortens the maintenance period of the storage tank, even causes the storage tank to be scrapped in advance, which affects the normal operation of the storage and transportation.
