The API 650 petroleum storage tank plays an important role in the petrochemical industry, and its safe operation have always been the focus of the industry. However, during use, the oil storage tank will corrode. Once it is corroded, it will bring various safety hazards and threaten the personal and property safety of the staff. Therefore, the API 650 petroleum storage tanks must be protected from corrosion. What is the cause of corrosion? How to prevent from corrosion?
Causes of corrosion of API 650 petroleum storage tanks:
There are two main reasons for the corrosion of oil storage tanks. The first one is caused by the corrosive medium in the oil and gas, and the other is caused by the corrosive medium in the environment. The corrosive media in oil and gas mainly include sulfides, inorganic salts, and nitrides. The external corrosive medium mainly comes from atmospheric corrosion, because it is exposed to the air for a long time, which leads to corrosion.
How to prevent corrosion of API 650 petroleum storage tanks?
The commonly used anti-corrosion method at present is the electrochemical anti-corrosion method. This method has good effect and can generally extend the service life of the oil storage tank by 10 to 15 years. Therefore, as long as the anti-corrosion is reasonable, the oil storage tank can play its role to the maximum.
