Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the transport and storage of environmentally hazardous liquid or dusty goods according to the preamble of claim 1, for example for the transport and storage of petroleum and its derivatives in sea and land transport, as well as in stationary land facilities.
  • the containers are filled via a pipeline system.
  • the containers at the destination port are emptied again via a second pipeline system and at least some of the containers must be carefully cleaned before the return trip in order to absorb ballast water. All of this requires a high level of technical equipment, which is arranged in pipe tunnels in the double floor or above deck.
  • These systems have a number of disadvantages. Since these container cells are very large, damage to the outer skin, for example as a result of an accident, usually results in major environmental disasters. As is known, damage limitation options are only possible to a limited extent. Furthermore, it should be mentioned that flammable gases form as a result of evaporation in non-full container cells, which escape into the ambient air through appropriate ventilation devices and form explosive gases with the atmospheric oxygen.
  • ballast containers are provided, which however limit the transport volume.
  • This container consists of a frame construction with stable side walls and a solid base, while the top cover is part of the inner, horizontally foldable container.
  • the inner accordion-foldable container is filled via a pipe system reaching from below into the container, the upper platform then floating on the liquid level during the filling process and being lifted thereby. Due to the liquid pressure, the flexible, foldable walls of the inner container lie against the solid container walls.
  • the upper platform is fixed in its upper end position by an all-round inflatable seal, thus making the space between the folding wall and the container wall liquid-tight. The transport of several different liquids is therefore not possible with the known container.
  • an improvement in the device for the transportation of petroleum mainly to limit its outflow into the sea due to accident and thereby avoid environmental pollution.
  • the elastic stores of variable volume are designed in a V-shape in their upper and lower cross-sectional profile, the tips of which lie opposite one another and the free ends of which are connected to one another by pairs of legs.
  • the elastic accumulators of variable volume are stiffened in the area of the folded edges of their cross-sectional profile.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the storage means are suspended from the container ceiling by means of traction means and brackets and that at least a part of the vertical and horizontal walls of the container is connected with a perforated sheet layer and this perforated sheet layer is parallel and at a certain distance from the container walls is arranged.
  • the elastic memory is equipped with a piercing hatch.
  • the vertical walls of the elastic accumulators are shaped in the form of an accordion bellows and are connected to containers by pipeline systems, elastic pipelines being suspended from the upper cover of these containers.
  • the essence of the invention is that the device according to the invention ensures greater safety during transport at sea and on land liquid and loose stowage. If the outer skin of the container is injured, no petroleum escapes from the dense and elastic storage, since they are made of very tough material and therefore remain tight. In the event of a collision and major deformations of the outer skin, an elastic store can also burst, but only in the deformation area of the steel container. In this case, the relatively small part of the petroleum could be quickly pumped into the emergency container.
  • FIG. 1 shows in cross section the tanker hull, in which three containers 2 are arranged along the entire hull width of the tanker, which are formed by dividing the hull by means of transverse and longitudinal shut-off dams 3 and 4 , the interior of the container with the surroundings being provided by valves 15 connected is.
  • elastic stores 1 In the interior of each container there are elastic stores 1 with variable volumes, which divide the entire interior of this container into loading part L and refill part N. Interiors of the elastic store 1 are connected by piping systems 6 and 7 (shown in the next figure), the connections of which are located outside the container and are connected to suction and / or pressing systems for petroleum.
  • the elastic memory 1 are connected by pipes 6 , which lead through the double floor 14 of the fuselage.
  • the stores 1 are suspended from the container ceilings 2 by means of traction means 9 on brackets 10 .
  • the surfaces of the vertical side walls 5 and longitudinal shut-off dams 4 are covered with a perforated sheet layer 8 .
  • the perforated sheet layer is arranged at a certain distance from the side walls. In this way, for example, a space is formed between the side wall 5 and the perforated sheet layer 8 , which is filled with water w up to a certain level. This water also fills the remaining container parts and the surrounding spaces between the elastic stores 1 .
  • the most important feature which distinguishes this example from the previous technical embodiment is that there are elastic stores 16 of different construction within the rigid container 2 .
  • These stores have vertical walls in the form of the accordion bellows and, as in the previous example, are connected to the bottom of the container via pipes 6 and these pipes connect the interior of the store to a suction or press system for petroleum.
  • the interiors of the elastic store 16 are also connected to one another, but via their upper cover with the elastic pipes 17 , which can be connected to the ventilation device or to the suction or press system, as required.
  • their height is continuously increased with a relatively small reduction in the cross-section of such an accumulator.
  • Mode of transport for the environment liquid and loose storage material in its application according to the example of petroleum and with the device according to the invention has the following sequence:
  • the walls of the elastic store 1 halve the interior of the container in two parts: loading and refill space, both parts being hermetically sealed from one another and from one another in the environment.
  • the interior of the elastic store 1 is filled with this petroleum via pipeline system 6 .
  • the piping system 7 plays the role of a pipeline for removing the gas and vapor residues from the interior of the storage.
  • the water level w increases and all free spaces of the container 2 are filled when the valves 15 are open.
  • the water level is then supplemented if necessary until all free spaces in the tank 2 are completely filled.
  • the petroleum in the elastic store 1 is thus isolated from the environment: by store walls, by water protection layers between the stores, by barrier dams and ship boarding; Is also isolated from the environment by steel walls of the container 2 , which are formed from these dams and shipping boards.
  • the emptying of the container is carried out by sucking off the petroleum from the elastic stores with the pipelines 7 and open valves 15 , which leads to the automatic compression of the stores 1 in the final phase of the emptying.
  • the second exemplary embodiment at least some of the crude oil is emptied by opening the valves in the pipelines 6 and injecting the water in the containers 2 .
  • the water that comes out of the oil completely fills the container 2 from the elastic stores 1 , forms the necessary ballast when the tanker returns.
  • the excess water flows out from the interior of the container 2 to the outside via the valves 15 .
  • the described object can be used at sea as well as in the country.
  • the field of application in the country includes transportation and storage of the oil in the transport containers that are loaded on wheeled vehicles, as well as in stationary plants, refineries, reloading and bunker stations, etc.
