Definitions

  • the invention relates to a module useful in a system and in a method for storing hazardous liquids that is economical and requires less construction at the storage site.
  • a first one of the modules is mounted on the support, and a second one of the modules is removably mounted on top of the first module.
  • Each of the vessels has a bottom wall and legs that hold the bottom wall above the support or a lower module so that there is a space below the bottom wall that can be inspected to determine if the module is leaking liquid.
  • Figure 1 is vertical cross section of a concrete vessel for secondary containment of liquid
  • Figure 3 is a view showing a plurality of modules for containing hazardous liquids, as shown in Figure 2 installed at a site. Best Mode of Carrying out the Invention
  • a liquid storage tank 40 is mounted within the vessel 10.
  • the tank can be made of a metal, plastic, glass, etc., and can be lined with a material that is resistant to the liquid to be stored in the tank.
  • Tank 40 may comprise a cylindrical tank, for example, and be positioned within the vessel by mounting it on a support 42 that is secured to the bottom wall 12 of the vessel and has a semi-cylindrical upper surface for receiving the lower portion of the tank 40.
  • the support 42 is rigidly secured to both the tank 40 and to the bottom wall 12 of the vessel so that the tank and vessel together comprise a module generally designated 44 that can be transportable from a construction site and interchangeable with other similar modules 44.
  • the site where the liquids are to be stored is prepared for receiving modules 44 by constructing a foundation or support slab 48 at the site and preferably above grade. While the modules could be located below ground, as with conventional storage systems, the apparatus of the present invention can be, and preferably, is located at or above grade.
  • the foundation or slab 48 can be constructed on site or may be a prefabricated section of reinforced concrete that is transported to the site when the storage system is to be constructed.
  • modules 44 are received at the site, one of the modules is placed directly on the foundation 48 as shown in Figure 3 for the module designated 44a.
  • the feet 20, 22 rest directly on the foundation 48 and serve to support the module 44a in place on the foundation.
  • the storage system comprises a plurality of the modules stacked one above the other on a foundation at grade level with each module comprising a liquid storage tank mounted within a leak-tight prefabricated, reinforced concrete vessel that is interchangeable with and stackable with other similar vessels.
  • the system has space provided by legs 20, 22 for visual inspection for leakage past the secondary containment vessel 10, and space for installation of conduits 52, 54 and other means for providing liquid to the tanks and removing it from the tanks.
  • the use of a fire retardant 50 makes installation above grade level feasible for flammable material.
  • Installation is very rapid because major components may be marshalled offsite and installed quickly when needed. Installation time can be reduced from months to weeks.

Abstract

Un liquide dangereux, tel qu'un liquide inflammable ou explosif, est stocké dans un module (44a, b, c) composé d'une citerne de stockage de liquide (40) installée à l'intérieur d'une cuve en béton renforcée, préfabriquée et étanche contre les fuites (10). Le module (44) est soutenu sur un socle. Un agent ignifuge (50) remplit l'espace compris entre la citerne de stockage (40) et la cuve (10) et des conduites (52, 54), des pompes, etc., sont reliées à la citerne (40) pour y acheminer les liquides et pour les en retirer.
