Hi everybody
I am working as the client on an above ground storage tank diesel and Jet A1 installation in the DRC. The question of whether the piping for the Jet A1 fuel tanks should be stainless steel has arisen. The supplier has said that they have never installed stainless piping but this is Africa. Are there any codes which stipulate stainless piping for Jet A1 (in particular API) or is carbon steel ok. I am only worried about contamination of the fuel. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
