Assessment method BREF:
A) Emission reduction potential
B) Operability
C) Applicability
D) Safety
E) Waste, energy, cross-media
Operational score OS = A * (B+C+D+E)
Financial score:
Capex = Capital Expenditure (F)
Opex = Operational Expenditure (H)
Cn=F * H
Overall score = OS * Cn

New tanks and terminals
-
External floating roof tanks are part of the
focus in reducing emissions
-
Tank conversions, reducing emissions
-
Replacing an external floating
roof by an aluminium dome roof
with internal floating roof
-
Steel External
Floating Roof (EFR)
Aluminum Dome with
(IFR)
Volume gained per tank: app. 5,000 m3
Aluminum Dome and IFR:
New Tanks - Reduced tank size for given working capacity Existing Tanks - Increased working capacity

Conversion Increases Tank Capacity
-
Low Profile seal
combination for
EFRT tanks
-
Capacity gain easily 2,500 m3 per tank
(for a 80m diameter tank)
-
Guide pole sleeves in service
-
Leg seals
prevent leg
emissions,
product boil
over and
watering in
of leg
sleeves and
therefore
reduce
corrosion
