As a general rule, storage tanks operate at atmospheric or very low pressures. A fundamental analysis in the design of storage tanks, associated with their protection and safety, is the design of the elements against overpressure and vacuum. The most commonly used protection elements in storage tanks are the vents, along with additional pressure relief […]

The study and technological improvements of materials have played a fundamental role in the design of pressure vessels and piping systems for the different industrial sectors. The selection of one type of material or another is crucial when optimizing the design of an equipment and minimizing manufacturing costs. Primarily, when selecting a material, we will […]
