Industrial Safety Aspects of Hazardous Material Tank Design

Abstract

There were several accidents involving dangerous substances in the last 10 years, both in the world and in the  European Union. These damage events are typically due to two reasons: technical failure and human negligence.  Social, economic growth and technological development  are accompanied by an increase in the number of dangerous substances and the range of plants that deal  with them. Plants can meet their increased demand for raw  materials that are dangerous materials in two ways, either  by increasing the frequency of deliveries or by setting up a  new raw material storage facility. The purpose of this  publication is to present the main technical information  related to the construction of storage tanks for dangerous  liquids and to make technological recommendations.
