Can anyone guide me on safety related design considerations & standards for a liquified chlorine tank?

Contact the Chlorine Institute (www.chlorineinstitue.org) and the Chlorine Council (www.c3.org) and you can begin to gather design standards and practices.\n\nI assume that by "Vinyl Chloride" you are refering to Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM).  All the VCM production processes involve not only chlorine, but a number of other significant hazards and design challenges.\n\nI am sure you must have a significant technical staff involved in the design, but groups like the Chlorine institute can provide some help.

It's basically a swimming pool with a slab over, though you have the opportunity of using stub walls or columns to reduce the slab spans. If the tank is small the sizes will be determined by practical rather than structural considerations. I'm hoping to build such a tank later this year as part of extentions to my house.

try the LNG - very very debatable as of recently. mainly, the 'liquified natural gas' terminal arguement has 2 sides: open loop system or closed loop system. open loop technology is said to endanger the ocean's fish population and marine life in general by sucking ocean water in to heat up the gas used to mine more gas - thus sucking in fish, fish eggs and other aquatic marine life. no one can say for sure that this won't happen or what they environmental impact will be (short or long term).\nalternatively, the big energy companies who stand to profit handsomely from this, claim it will not endanger the marine life, ever heard that before? they also claim they can not afford to use a 'closed' loop system b/c it will eat into their billion dollar profits too much, which is another farse. shell is not the only corporation proposing to build a LNG so you can bet this issue is far from over.\ncheck out the article and url below for more details including one about gas emissions from the lng.\n\ngood luck and happy researching!

The best thing would be a bit of bleach.  Do the math - you should shoot for about 2 to 4 parts per million hypochlorite (since commercial preparations are usually 5% - which is 50,000 parts per million - YOU NEED TO DILUTE IT 25,000 FOLD BEFORE YOU DRINK IT - SEE MY NOTE AT THE BOTTOM).  You should also try to store the water in the dark, in an opaque container, or at least in a brown or green glas container since algae growth is photosynthetically driven (i.e. needs light)\n\nBE CAREFUL HANDLING BLEACH - AT HIGH CONCENTRATIONS IT IS TOXIC AND CORROSIVE.

You could use a regular stock tank.  Not pretty, but will last a LONG time.

These are components (for example) of steam power plants (stationary and marine).  Engineering Handbooks (Marks' Mechanial Engineers' Handbook, etc.) should provide definitions and perhaps examples of steam, air and water pressure reducers and steam desuperheaters.  Visit any large library and ask at the Reference Desk for technical handbooks (or any other books re' steam power plants).\n\nEngineers would contact manufacturers for detailed product information before specifying equipment.\n\nGood luck.

i agree with an intermediate tank , also u can use multistage centrifugal pump , with pipes greater at least one size specially for suction , ur hight is not critical , we can go to 250 m .

lol look at the first two answers!\n\nlet's assume you are asking about big aquariums.\nthey make their own.  the have giant RO/DI (reverse osmosis/deionization) filters. They just pull out the chemicals, heavy metals and dissolved organics. Then they put back in vital trace elements, like magnesium, strontium, (and calcium but thats not 'trace').\n\nsmall aquariums, like in your kitchen\nstart with regular tap water, but pull out the chlorine and chloramines as well as copper, lead, etc. you can do this by mixing in something called 'Prime' by seachem. This website will tell you everything you need to know. \n\nPS--he talks about Prime, but Prime's label doesnt say that it binds heavy metals. it does. i dont know why they didnt put it on there. we actually called Seachem and asked them. They sent us this giant analysis of their stuff.

You may wish to try abe.com.  I am a librarian and I occasionally source texts from abe.com, alas with the title you provided there is nothing available.  I also checked alibris.com but they had no copies. \n\nI also checked WorldCat, a union catalog for thousands of libraries worldwide and I found no holdings with that exact title.  There was one called <<Standards of drinking water quality and methods of examination applicable to European countries; report on a study.>>\nAlso available in WorldCat was <<Standard Methods for the Examination of Water Sewage and Industrial Wastes>>. \n\nYou may wish to make certain the title is correct, also providing an author would help.  \n\nWorldCat is a fee based database which your librian can access for you or help you access on your own. \n\nGood luck.

besides the obvious from above answers, you need the following design specs....\n\na ship that is air tight,\na ship that will protect the occupants from radiation,\na ship that is able to withstand extreme cold & heat,\na ship that is structurally strong from pressure

My recommendation is steel, high pressure tank, and 80-100 cu ft.\n\nSteel is negatively buoyant when empty.  This allows you to wear less weight when compared to aluminum tanks.  Avoid neutrally buoyant aluminum tanks.  These are just aluminum tanks with an extra 5#s added to it.\n\nHigh pressure because you get more capacity for the size.\n\n80-100 cu ft since these are the most versatile and will most likely match your buddy.  While 80 cu ft hp tanks are great single tanks, if you plan on doubles, then 100 hp tanks are better since these will trim out better for most people.

Making a domestic bio-gas is not a big problem and failure chances are less if you operate or maintain it well. I would recommend to check web pages of any Madrass based firm or kerala. lemme find a web page for you and will b back soon,

I believe it developed on time as a practical ecomonic choice or industry standard.\n\nYou would want to use a very low pressure if possible but still it needs to be high enough to actuate instuments and control devices.

yes, condensation and whats more dangerous is leakage. water and electronics don't mix well. You also have to monitor the coolant level and top off as necessary.
