Technology Of Underground Liquid Storage Tank Systems

Ein praktischer Leitfaden zu technischen und gesetzlichen Aspekten von Installation, Wartung, Stillegung und Abbau von unterirdischen Flüssigkeitstanks (beispielsweise von Tankstellen). Der Autor schöpft aus seiner jahrelangen Erfahrung als Kursleiter und erklärt jedes Detail in gut verständlicher Form - auch für Manager und Bediener, die nur wenig technische Erfahrung mitbringen.

A reference that helps engineers identify and assess storage tank problems. It examines the technical issues, and identifies the regulatory requirements for storage tank use, replacement, and remediation. It outlines tank farm specifications and compares various tank construction methods. A major chapter is devoted to the techniques for minimizing ecological damage during cleanup of oil spills. For engineers, technicians, scientists, and contractors. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

This new work describes the state-of-the-art of remedial technologies for petroleum contaminated soils and impacted ground water-13 feasible methods and their basic elements, along with discussion of the factors to consider when selecting the method(s) to use-and their implementation. It presents a thorough description and evaluation of each available technology for remediating soil and groundwater containing petroleum products released by underground storage tank leaks and spills. State remedial action practices are discussed.

This reference has been assembled to help professionals assess the problems surrounding underground storage tank use, replacement, and remediation. In it, the author explores techniques for avoiding the risks posed to health and the environment from all types of liquids. A useful on-the-job reference for engineers, technicians, scientists, and contractors.

Here is the first book to deal with underground storage tanks and pipes-designed for beneficial use by anyone involved with leak detection and monitoring of underground storage systems. Underground Storage Systems gives a complete overview of how to detect a release, what equipment is required-and currently available, and how that equipment can be implemented effectively. In addition, it reviews the different techniques available to monitor an underground storage system and how to integrate these techniques to achieve a comprehensive monitoring program.

A survey of manufacturing and installation methods, standards, and specifications of factory-made steel storage tanks and appurtenances for petroleum, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and other flammable or combustible liquids. It chronicles the trends towards aboveground storage tanks, secondary containment, and corrosion-resistant underground steel stora

A guide to the entire process of installing and managing underground storage tanks, with a focus on preventing leaks, and what to do if a leak occurs.
