    Need help to design an ammonia absorber

    ANSI K61.1 is a guideline for anhydous ammoina storage systems and we have adopted it for our aqueous ammonia systems. It sounds like you are filling the tank so that it opens the relief valve and over flows with liquid. You should stop filling at the 85% level, per ANSI K61.1, and also...

    oil heated tool

    Gunner, Send me an e-mail (craigtiras@ifsolutions.com) and I can e-mail you a P&ID drawing. Heatup time is merely mass of the equipment times the specific heat times the delta T divided by the time in hours plus any heat loss. A rough calculation shows that a 250KW heater is required. We can...

    Hot Oil Heater - Natural Gas or Electric Heating?

    I'd heat it directly with an electric process heater. Go to www.integraheat.com for more information and sizing /selection.

    Need help to design an ammonia absorber

    You shouldn't be filling the tank above 85% liquid level. You should have a level alarm high that stops the filling process. There should also be a tank pressure and tank level indicator at the unloading station.

    Ammonia Sprinklers

    I think Olmedo is referring to a water system around the ammonia tank. If the tank were to leak anhydrous ammonia into the atmosphere, it could be harmful, if not deadly. I would first check ANSI K61.1 for flowrates.
