Structural features
Cube shape: This shape of tank design gives it certain advantages in placement and space utilization. Compared with other irregular shapes, cubes are easier to plan for layout in fixed places, and can be arranged closely or flexibly placed according to site conditions. For example, in the oil storage area of gas stations or large industrial plants, it can better adapt to limited space.
Double-wall structure: The double-wall design is to enhance safety. The outer wall can provide additional protection for the inner diesel storage to prevent external factors from affecting the inner diesel. For example, in the event of an accidental impact or fire, the outer wall can block external forces to a certain extent and reduce damage to the internal diesel storage. And there is usually a certain space between the double walls, which can be used to detect whether there is a diesel leak. If the inner wall leaks, the diesel will accumulate in the space between the double walls, triggering the leak detection system and issuing an alarm in time.
Functional use
Fuel transfer: As a transfer tank, it can be used to transfer diesel between different transportation or storage links. For example, in the process of transporting diesel from a refinery to a large oil storage base, or from an oil storage base to a terminal sales site such as a gas station.
Diesel storage: It can safely store diesel for a long time. In some places that require a stable supply of diesel, such as power stations, large construction sites (with a large number of diesel-powered equipment), etc., it can be used as an on-site diesel storage facility to ensure the continuous operation of the equipment.
Precautions for use
Safety: Regularly check the integrity of the double wall to ensure that there is no damage or leakage. At the same time, fire prevention, anti-static and other safety measures should be taken around the tank. For example, install a lightning arrester to prevent fires caused by lightning strikes; ensure that the tank is well grounded to avoid explosions caused by static electricity accumulation.
Maintenance: Regularly clean the surface of the tank and the surrounding environment to prevent impurities from corroding the tank. It is also necessary to inspect and maintain the relevant connecting pipes, valves and other components to ensure their normal operation and prevent diesel leakage.
