Corrosion Protection of Crude oil or Product Storage Tanks- Front End Designs (FEED)

Image
Material Science-Juniper Publishers A Case Study A skid mounted Formation water storage tank farm was set up in a remote marginal oil field in North East India. A Cathodic Protection system was installed in the tanks to protect them from Galvanic corrosion over 10 year service life. The tanks had the following design and process data. Inside diam=6.0m. Height to eaves=4.5m Fixed cone type roof. Liquid capacity=100Kls (Cu.m). Nominal capacity=120Kls. Storage temp=Ambient. Storage pressure = Atmospheric. Max /Min temp (Amb)=38 /3 áµ’C. Design temp = 65 áµ’C. Material of construction = Carbon Steel. Corrosion allowance=3mm Salinity of water=8500ppm. pH=9.5. Go to System Design Approach Design calculation for a single tank will be made The terrain is hilly with heavy slush and mud during monsoon season which extends over April-Dec period every year. This makes the approach to the equipment difficult, requiring stand alone type with least maintenance and low capital invest...

Bulk Metal Alloys as a Precursor of Dispersed Particles Catalyzing Growth of Carbon Nanofibers

Image
Juniper Publishers Abstract Bulk metal alloys can be considered as a precursor of self-organized catalysts consisting of dispersed metal particles fixed within the structure of carbon nanofibers, which were grown as a result of catalytic chemical vapor deposition of halogen-substituted hydrocarbons. Being subjected to interaction with aggressive reaction mixture, the bulk alloy precursors undergo relatively fast process of metal dusting, which ends with complete wastage of initial metal item. The catalysts thus obtained are characterized with excellent long-term stability of operation along with high activity in decomposition of hydrocarbons of different nature. The approach described opens new horizons for a synthesis of nanostructured carbon materials including carbon-carbon composites of bimodal structure. Keywords:  Bulk metal alloys; Metal dusting; Self-disintegration; Carbon nanofibers; Catalytic chemical vapor deposition Go to Introduction Industrially ...

Development of Refined Chemistries and Processing Methods for Integration of Carbon Dioxide into a Hydraulic Binder for Effective Heavy Metal Immobilization

Image
Juniper Publishers Abstract A method is under developed for capture of carbon dioxide directly from combustion emissions into land filled coal ash, and simultaneous transformation of the carbon dioxide and ash with supplementary minerals into a hydraulic binder. In this study, several additives were investigated for raising the CO 2  uptake of land filled ash and enhancing the end-product quality. The resultant binder meets the standard requirements for hazardous waste solidification and stabilization. The approach adopted here relies upon mechanochemical phenomena, induced by a simple milling action, to incorporate carbon dioxide into land filled ash while concurrently transforming the raw materials (including the captured carbon dioxide) into a hydraulic binder. The CO 2  uptake in mechanochemical processing of cement was estimated as the difference in Loss of Ignition (LOI) of cements milled in CO 2  and in air. The compressive strength achieved by hydration o...
