Tanks

A liquid storage tank can be installed in fixed location as a stationary vessel, or mounted on a road tanker for the delivery of liquid product. Typical tank size ranges from 4,000 to 30,000 litre. The tank has a double-walled structure, where the space between the inner container and the outer casing is vacuumed and filled with thermal insulation (such as perlite powder) to protect heat transfer from outside. Safety relief valves are equipped for protecting the tank from pressure build-up. Standard tanks are designed under standardized specifications such as American Society of Mechanical Engineering (ASME).
