Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a storage facility for storage of volatile hydrocarbons with at least one serving as a storage container vertical round container according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a deposit with a vertical round container is from the WO 2008/025454 A1 known.
  • the round container described has a liquid surface covering, floating cover.
  • the cover is sealed against the container wall by means of flexible sealing elements and has on its underside at least one open to the liquid chamber, are enclosed in the gaseous media / vapors.
  • Facilities are provided which determine the immersion depth of the cover.
  • supply / discharge lines are provided with which the amount of the gaseous medium in the at least one chamber is variable.
  • the supply / discharge lines for the gaseous medium are connected to a central unit, which is provided outside the container space.
  • a first problem area are steam leaks in special operating situations, the extreme heating of the contents of the storage tanks on summer days, the Inadvertent discharge of air or vapors with tank filling (eg during ship unloading or from the pipeline), the introduction of warmed storage products and the release of stored products.
  • a second problem area is that the container volume can not be fully utilized because the floating cover loses its emission-limiting effect as soon as the liquid level in the container drops below the support height of the floating cover supporting the floating cover at the bottom of the container.
  • a safety valve opens to protect against vacuum and to prevent possible destruction of the floating cover.
  • air from the atmosphere replaces the removed storage liquid and, in the event of subsequent filling of the container, forcibly leads to vapor emissions which amount to up to one kilogram of stored product per cubic meter of air. Therefore, the loss of storage volume is about 10% to 15%.
  • the third problem to be mentioned is that in order to minimize the emissions mentioned above in the context of the second problem area, in particular floating roof tanks (which do not have a fixed tank roof) height-adjustable floating roof supports are provided with which the floating roof is supported at low liquid level at the bottom of the tank.
  • the roof supports are moved to a higher position so that they protrude only about 1 m from the bottom of the floating cover; The distance between tank bottom and deepest floating roof position is only about 1 m and the tank volume is better usable.
  • the roof supports Prior to planned repairs to the container, the roof supports are moved with the container filled so that they hold the floating roof in a high position about 2 m above the tank bottom. Adjusting the floating roof supports involves risks for the installation personnel and fire hazards.
  • a further, fourth problem area is to be seen in that after a full emptying of the container for a designated repair, the gas space must be degassed under the floating cover. For this purpose, external companies are needed, which suck and burn the vapors from the dead space of the container. This work can take several weeks for larger containers and leads to enormous cost and security risks. In addition, during the last combustion phase of this work, as the concentration of vapors decreases, a foreign gas must be mixed prior to incineration, a measure required for environmental reasons.
  • Another fifth problem area is the fact that the enormous expense of emptying the container not only leads to enormous costs and risks, but also represents a major impediment to a flexible re-allocation of the tank space for a possible product change. This is in contrast to today's demand that tank farms must be very flexible to changing storage needs designed to rent the existing storage volumes well.
  • the present invention is based on a storage for the storage of volatile hydrocarbons with at least one serving as a storage container vertical round container, the round container is equipped with a liquid surface covering, floating cover in the form of a floating roof or a floating cover; the annular space formed between the cover and the container wall is sealed by means of flexible sealing elements.
  • the floating cover fittings are integrated for the automatic control of the pressure and the negative pressure in the space below the cover.
  • the present invention is based on the object, the above-mentioned emissions and fire risks drastically to reduce. Furthermore, the storage space is to be made almost 100% usable and the flexibility of the storage space for product re-allocations can be increased. It should also be possible to make emissions usable for energy purposes.
  • the invention is characterized in that the fittings of the at least one round container are connected to a Dämperneitung, which is guided at the upper edge of the container (preferably over the upper edge of the container) and in turn connected to a separate vaporizer reservoir, the Buffers of vapors which under certain operating conditions must be supplied or removed from the space under the cover.
  • the round tank and the vapor expansion tank form a closed system, whereby a complete separation between atmosphere and storage product takes place.
  • the fittings are designed to protect the space below the floating cover against overpressure as well as against a potential vacuum.
  • the Dämperneitung within the round container has a vertically extending portion which is formed as a bellows and which expands or contracts depending on the floating height of the floating cover. Because of this bellows, the ducting is extended or shortened according to the position of the floating cover as a result of container filling.
  • the bellows of the ducting surround a fixed support and that the bellows be secured to the upper end of the support.
  • the attachment point of the bellows to the carrier forms a fixed reference point for the bellows.
  • the lower end of the bellows is preferably attached to a structural part of the floating roof and changes with the floating position of the floating roof.
  • the support which surrounds the bellows, is simultaneously formed as sampling, Peil-, measuring and / or guide tube or as a roof support, whereby at the same time the vertical passage of the carrier is sealed by the floating cover.
  • the bellows is already present on some containers today, since the vertical ducts through the floating cover today represents the largest emission source on the container.
  • the Dämimineitung can be performed within a round container along a roll ladder.
  • a roller ladder is pivotally connected to the region of the upper edge of the round container while the lower end is provided with rollers and rolls along a runway resting on the floating cover. With changing floating height of the floating roof, the roller ladder changes its inclination, the rollers are always guided along the runway.

  • annular space between the floating cover, the container wall and an edge seal above the liquid surface should be connected to the space below the floating cover to dissipate also from this annulus accumulating there vapors.
  • the invention is preferably to be used when the deposit comprises several storage containers.
  • these storage containers are connected to a common vaporizer reservoir.
  • the vaporizer surge tank with its ballast weight should be designed to avoid negative pressure in the space below the cover by supplying vapors into this space, and should also be designed to have a given gauge pressure in this space below the cover by absorbing vapors from the room.
  • a fan can be arranged in the dimming line, which is controlled by pressure sensors in the tank container below the floating cover.
  • the invention also relates to a storage facility with a plurality of storage containers, wherein these storage containers are subdivided into at least two groups, wherein the assignment to the at least two groups takes place after their pressure exerted on the liquid via the floating cover.
  • Each storage container in a group is associated with a vaporizer reservoir adapted to this pressure.
  • the different vaporizer reservoirs are connected via a vapor equalization line into which a booster blower for delivering vapors from the low pressure vaporizer reservoir to the higher pressure vaporizer reservoir is inserted.

  • water or storage liquids can be used as the rinsing liquid be used with low vapor pressure from other storage containers of the deposit.
  • the round container which is in FIG. 1 shown in cross-section and designated by the reference numeral 1, represents an open floating roof tank and comprises a container bottom 2 and a vertical container wall 3.
  • the located in the container space 4 liquid (volatile hydrocarbons) is covered by a floating cover 5.
  • the floating cover 5 is supported by a ring pontoon 6 above the liquid distributed around the peripheral portion of the floating cover 5.
  • the remaining between the outer wall 7 of the floating cover 5 and the inside of the container wall 3 annular space 8 is closed by flexible sealing elements 9, so that on the one hand no rainwater can penetrate into the space below the floating cover 5 and on the other no vapors from the room below can escape the floating cover 5, wherein, as indicated in the figure, such vapors also accumulate in the annular space 8 above the liquid surface 10.
  • the floating cover 5 On the underside of the floating cover 5 is distributed over the surface of a plurality of supports 11, with which the floating cover 5 rests on the container bottom 2, when the storage liquid is emptied to a residual volume from the container 1. After the then remaining liquid is completely emptied from the container 1 and the space 4 between the container bottom 2 and floating cover 5 is degassed, the floating cover can also be inspected and maintained from the bottom.
  • Both valves 12, 13 are connected via a Dämbsteitung 14 with a vapor compensating tank 15 outside of the round container 1.
  • the Dämperneitung 14 includes within the container space a vertically extending portion which is formed as a bellows 16.

  • the vapors expansion tank 15 is designed with the ballast weight 22, taking into account the flow resistance of the Dämperneitung 14 so that it avoids a negative pressure in the space 4 below the cover 5 by supplying vapors in the required amount and time in this space 4, and is on the other hand also designed so that it avoids a predetermined overpressure in this space 4 below the cover 5 by absorbing vapors in the required amount and time from the room 4.
  • the necessary pressure equalization is ensured by the pressure relief valve 12 and the vacuum valve 13.
  • the vacuum valve 13 has an operating rod 24 which is made longer than the length of the supports 11, so that the end of this operating rod 24 with the container bottom 2 of the round container 1 comes into contact before the floating cover 5 with the supports 11 on the ground gets up.
