Co2 Storage Tank
(OP)
Design pressures of co2 storage tanks are usually set at 350 psig.But in tropical countries ambient temperature goes as high as 115 deg F. w/resulting vapor pressure will be more than 900 psi. Can we rely on refrigeration to prevent over pressure? How do we determine capacity of refrigeration system.

for delivery of Co2? Each case is a new optimization problem. Are high flow rates involved? This changes thermal exchange requirements drastically. More information is needed to bracket an answer. I agree with butelja above on safety. Loss of the contents of a tank is generally cheaper than loss of a tank because of its contents. Relief valves can be doubled up and inspected periodically and are a cheap form of insurance.

Looks like an easy task.
