API 650 storage tanks general introduction

The elastic filling and sealing of floating roof API 650 storage tanks is to fill the elastic and changeable objects in the sealed envelope, and the sealing purpose depends on the compression deformation of the filler. This kind of sealing effect is good, the requirement of the geometry of tank wall is not too high, and the adaptability is strong. However, the elastic filling and sealing has poor wear resistance and is easy to deform and damage in long-term use.

The API 650 storage tanks outer wall shall be designed for the purging and operating pressure of the space between the inner and outer tank shells and for the loading from the insulation, the pressure of wind forces, and the roof loading.
The outer tank bottom, shell, and roof shall have a minimum nominal thickness of 3/16 in. (7.65 lbf/ft2) and shall conform to the material requirements of Q.2.3.

The outer layer of API 650 tank is glass fiber reinforced plastic layer with a thickness of more than 2.5mm, which API 650 storage tanks has strong corrosion resistance and electric corrosion resistance. Special process technology is used between the two layers to make the gap reach 0.1 mm, so as to eliminate the existence of potential safety hazard from the root.

The company always adheres to the concept of green production, follows the development path of innovation, transformation and improvement, and has carried out in-depth cooperation with Zhengzhou University and other scientific research institutes, planning from a high starting point, strict standard design, and successfully implementing engineering projects With nearly 20 research and development projects, the company's production technology and equipment are at the forefront of the industry, and indicators such as environmental protection, energy consumption, cost, and resource utilization have reached the advanced level in the industry.
