Introduction to several liquids suitable for storage in double-layer oil tanks

Release Date: November 26, 2024

If we understand the double-layer oil tank literally, we may think that the double-layer oil tank can only store oil liquids. In fact, this is not the case. The double-layer oil tank is actually a container with relatively high safety requirements, so it can store liquids with high safety requirements, such as gasoline, chemical liquids, etc. Today we will specifically understand the five major types of liquids currently using double-layer oil tanks on the market.

1. Solvent tanks: including solvent oil (aliphatic hydrocarbons) benzene, toluene, xylene, methanol, butanol, ethanol, isopropanol and ketones, etc.

2. Refineries mainly refer to crude gasoline, diesel and naphtha tanks in the refining production process, etc.

3. Intermediate product storage tanks mainly finished oil tanks (refineries, finished oil depots, gas stations, oil users, etc.) Finished oil includes diesel, gasoline, aviation kerosene, etc.

4. Crude oil storage tanks (oil production units, oil trading companies, transit depots, port terminals, and refineries) High-sulfur crude oil is highly corrosive. China now imports crude oil from all over the world, and crude oil with high wax content has a higher viscosity. The quality of crude oil in different places is different, and the corrosiveness is also different. The sulfur content of crude oil in the Middle East is high, and it is also the main source of oil imported by my country.
