Should I pay attention to those details when using FRP tanks?

Should I pay attention to those details when using FRP tanks?

Answer:

Practice has proved that the composite structure impermeable layer has no leakage under the 300kPa pressure. For more than two years, the actual application in the reconstruction project of nine newly-built or old gas stations in Beijing area has shown that the application of the FRP oil resisting impervious layer is effective and completely prevents leakage.
One of the measures to prevent leakage is to make the double wall oil storage tank and the inner surface of the tank glass fiber reinforced plastic oil resistant impermeable layer. As a concrete method, the prepared oil storage tank is placed in the tank of underground reinforced concrete oil tank, and the glass fiber reinforced plastic oil resisting impervious layer is made on the surface of the tank. Thus, when the oil leakage occurs in the glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tank and the pipeline, the oil is not leaked in the impermeable layer of the glass fiber reinforced plastic, and the pollution of the underground water resource is avoided.
Two of the measures to prevent leakage, the advanced design of foreign countries, is to provide reliable and reliable instrument for monitoring oil leakage for underground FRP tanks.SoilSentry12X is the fastest way to monitor leakage of ground glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tanks and pipelines. It is fully functional, allowing operators to easily identify leaks or spills, and quickly point out where the accident occurred. There is a slow leak at the junction of the catheter. Hydrocarbon gases travel 50 times faster than liquids and quickly spread over the backfill of tanks and conduits. SoilSentry12X draws gas samples from monitoring wells, through the tubes, back to the system mainframe, and analyzes them using sensors.
