Suggest that you repost your general fire protection question in a Fire Protection forum
This forum, according to my understanding, deals with tank construction details, tank coatings and accessories.
Yes, we understand what you have been assigned, we understand you work for an MBA.... but ..
Is there any real fire hazard here with biogas ? .... If the tank is hit by lightning will there be a fire ? ... Is this even possible
Most storage tank fire protection systems deal with petrochemical liquid tanks undergoing a fire at the top rim...
Most of these fires are caused by lightning ...
Is your low-BTU biogas even flamable ? ..... What is the scenario where the structure of your tank is in danger of failure ?
Can anybody help here ???
