The design and construction for API 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks

API 650 Tanks in which liquid fluids are stored and designed to withstand atmospheric pressure operation, less than 18 kPa, or internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the API 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks roof, with temperatures no higher than 93, 3 C are included in the scope of this design code.

Generally, external environment corrosion should be considered before design and construction of API 650 partially anchored liquid-storage 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.

Design of Compression-ring Regions
In this project, a cylindrical tank 30 ft in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 5 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 Grade A steel for thicknesses of 1/2 in. and less. The top course of the butt- welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick, including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The tank API 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks roof is a butt-welded spherical dome with an internal radius of 30 ft and a thickness of 1/4 in., including a 1/16 in. corrosion allowance. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of the juncture of the roof and sidewall.

Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the products against the competitive products. Understand the industry situation and future trend. Understand the API 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks product brand positioning appeal point, focus on the crowd and development direction. Understand the layout of each market area, and form a big strategic layout view. Understand the basic operation and assessment standards of work responsibilities. Understand the situation of the cooperative customers.

"Efficiency is benefit, time is money", the company is equipped with a high standard logistics team. After the products pass the factory inspection, they will coordinate the shipment as soon as possible according to customer requirements and schedules to hand over the booked steel materials to customers at the first time, to ensure no delay of customer's project progress, to strive for more project preparation time for customers.
