API Std 650 carbon steel tank shell compression

API 650 petroleum storage tanks use lightning protection, anti-static, and fire protection measures. The internal corrosion protection should be determined according to the API Std 650 carbon steel tank storage medium, and the outer wall corrosion protection should be determined according to the soil quality of the buried tank.

In this project, a cylindrical tank 62 ft 6 in. in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 4 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 steel with appropriate grades for different plate thicknesses in accordance with Table 4-1 for a design metal temperature less than 65°F but not less than 25°F. No corrosion allowance is required for any portion of the tank. The top course of the butt-welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick. The roof is a single lap-welded spherical dome with an internal radius of 50 ft and a thickness of 1/4 in. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of the juncture of the tank API Std 650 carbon steel tank roof and sidewall.

Operation points of sand blasting rust removal for metal storage tank, API Std 650 carbon steel tank:
1. The equipment should be as close as possible to the workpiece to be processed, so as to reduce the pipeline length and pressure loss, avoid excessive pipeline wear, and facilitate the construction personnel to contact each other.
2. The jet pipe should be straight as much as possible to reduce the concentrated wear at the bend. The wear direction of the bend should be changed frequently to prolong the service life of the pipe.
3. Strictly control the process parameters.

we develop very well through those years even the external environment is not conducive to the whole steel industry. With the prosperity of our group, our company always bear its staff who contributes to its growth in mind, and always on the way to improve welfare and treatment. That makes us staff and work with pleasure. On the other way, they creat a better and stronger our group. That may be one of the key factors why we develop so rapidly those years. Here we can say proudly “we are family”.
