Here are some specifications for green ammonia storage tanks:
Design
Ammonia storage tanks should be double-walled and double-integrity, with insulation on the outer wall. The tank should be designed to withstand a hydrostatic test.
Construction
The tank should be made of low temperature materials and designed for product deriving loads. The inner and outer tank walls and bottoms should be made of low temperature materials.
Foundation
The tank should be erected on an elevated piled concrete slab foundation.
Instrumentation
The tank should be equipped with instrumentation to monitor and control normal operation and emergencies.
Valves
The tank should have pressure relief valves and vacuum relief valves to manage emergencies.
Nitrogen line
The tank should have a nitrogen line and distribution ring at the tank bottom for purging operations.
Storage
Ammonia can be stored in bulk as a liquid at modest pressures (10-15 bar) or refrigerated to -33°C.
Location
Ammonia should be stored in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, out of direct sunlight, away from heat and ignition sources, away from flammable materials and process handling areas.
