extra storage
(OP)
We currently have 28 storage tanks 8 reactors and 4 premix vessels... we are about to pickup business from a shutdown of a sister plant. Any suggestions on how to handle storage of additional volume? The only thing I can come up with is Tank trucks loaded once product is in spec.Hold the tank truck in a depot until carrier picks up.





RE: extra storage
Just out of curiosity, are you producing heavy water or you produce alcohol? Lucky you, the shut down wasn't at your big brother plant, I could not help you there...

RE: extra storage
Seems like you should be able to manage tankage and coordinate trucks and loading times.
RE: extra storage
Helpful to know the vapor pressure and emissions contraints (atmospheric storage?), pumpability (rental pumps?) how many tanker traiers could you park on-site til on-spec condition of product is contirmed? Incoming feedstock storage problems? Typically, reaction would be the bottleneck in most plants.
Another CPI plant bites the dust. Perhaps somewhere besides onshore.
