The 2017-2022 China Liquefied Gas Storage Tank Industry Development Report compiled by the Brief Industry Research Institute first provides a summary analysis of the general development of the liquefied gas storage tank industry, aiming to acquaint readers with the current development trends and market situation of the domestic liquefied gas storage tank industry. It conducts a detailed and in-depth analysis of the current market situation of the liquefied gas storage tank industry in China and the development of each sub-industry, comprehensively analyzes the development trends of the liquefied gas storage tank industry in China, and puts forward some views and suggestions. The report does not cover the relevant production technologies of the liquefied gas storage tank industry; those interested may refer to other reports in this industry or consult customer service. The report mainly presents facts, supplemented by objective analysis, and the content is for reference only.

The 2017-2022 China Liquefied Gas Storage Tank Industry Development Report consists of approximately 176 pages and over 115,000 words, including more than 110 charts. The report was updated and completed in October 2017. It is divided into eleven chapters, with the first chapter providing an overview of the international liquefied gas storage tank industry, including basic conditions and development trends. The second and third chapters analyze the domestic industry's development environment and current situation, examining the market competition, foreign investment, and existing issues. Chapters four to seven offer a detailed data analysis of the overall business status of the Chinese liquefied gas storage tank industry. Chapter eight compares and analyzes more than a dozen key domestic companies within the industry, aiming to provide readers with insights into the operating status and future development plans of competitors or related enterprises. The report also analyzes the financing characteristics and investment opportunities, as well as the risks involved in the liquefied gas storage tank industry, and provides recommendations.

The loading and unloading areas for liquid ammonia storage tanks should be prohibited from being set near densely populated areas such as schools, hospitals, and residential areas. The quantity of liquid ammonia stored must comply with national standards or relevant national regulations regarding distances from the following places and regions: 1. Residential areas, commercial centers, parks, and other densely populated areas; 2. Public facilities such as schools, hospitals, cinemas, and sports stadiums; 3. Water sources, waterworks, and protected water source areas; 4. Train stations, ports (except those specifically approved and engaged in the handling of hazardous chemicals as per national regulations), airports, highways, railways, waterways, subway ventilation shafts, and entrances and exits; 5. Basic farmland protection areas, pastoral areas, fishery waters, and production bases for seeds, breeding animals, and aquatic seedlings; 6. Rivers, lakes, scenic areas, and nature reserves; 7. Military prohibited areas and military management areas; 8. Other areas protected as stipulated by laws and administrative regulations.

Liquefied ammonia storage tanks, as a special type of pressure vessel, are widely used in the chemical industry for transporting strong acids and alkalis. Over the years, it has been found that liquid ammonia tanks rarely experience strength failure, with most incidents being due to corrosion cracks. The corrosion issue with liquid ammonia tanks is increasingly drawing attention, as many safety concerns arise from their insufficient corrosion resistance. Generally, cracks in the weld areas of the inner surface of the tank are severe, often occurring on the circumferential welds, with no plastic deformation at the crack tips, displaying typical brittle crack characteristics. Most cracks are shallow and elongated with distinct branches, with the main crack perpendicular to the weld direction, especially at the start and end points of manual arc welding, T-joints, and where the封头ring weld intersects with the cylindrical longitudinal weld. In addition to enhancing the inspection of welds, manufacturers of liquid ammonia tanks must also strengthen the inventory management of welding rods and ensure that different rods are not mistakenly used during operations, as this can compromise product quality.
