Sandborn Roofs & Seals: The Science Of Seals
For over half a century, floating roof seal assemblies have been, at most, an afterthought. Very little consideration was given to how a seal would function, and even less given to actual emission control. Little thought was given to product compatibility, tank conditions, shell deformations and tank cycling. As long as the gap between the floating roof and tank shell was bridged with a device of some sort, the tank was deemed operational, giving a false sense of safe operation and emission control. The typical seal system installed on steel floating roofs has remained consistent for the past 30+ years. […]

BM Process Management: Energy-Efficient, Carbon Neutral and NOx-Free Emission Control
The global energy landscape is changing. The push for alternative energy sources is in full swing: green electricity, green hydrogen and sustainable fuels will replace fossil fuels in the combat of CO2 emissions globally. This influences the tank storage industry in particular: a move away from petroleum products and towards the storage of chemicals, biofuels, and other energy carriers such as LNG, ammonia, and hydrogen. The proportion of petroleum- based storage and shipping remains however very significant and will likely remain significant for the next decades. During the storage and shipment of liquid bulk products such as petroleum products, chemicals […]
Port Tarragona: Becoming A Future Fuels Hub
As global targets to reach net zero and achieve a more sustainable future intensify, ports need to do everything they can to support this transition. This may mean replacing their own infrastructure, but also requires collaboration with customers and partners across the supply chain to ensure a cohesive move. Located in Spain, Port Tarragona’s energy transition strategy is divided into two parts: the first being the decarbonisation of port activity, and second, to become a hub for the products that will lead this energy transition: hydrogen, methanol, ammonia and other derivatives. Both of these phases will be critical to deliver […]
