Corrosion is a prime cause of deterioration of steel storage tank and accessories.Locating and Evaluating the extent of corrosion is therefore a major reason for inspection.

Product Blending for Fuel Quality

Effective Mixing

1. Basic Sediment& Water(BS&W) PreventionProvide a focused flow across the tank floor such that the complete floor is “swept” and sedimentation and water is homogenized in the crude oil. By effectively sweeping the floor it will allow for better “water draw” of free water prior to mixing.

2. BlendingMix two or more components to obtain a homogeneous blend in a specific amount of time to defined requirements demands complete bottom-to-top-to-bottom turnover.

3. HomogeneityMaintain homogeneity of refinery finished, intermediate products, or chemical plant feed stocks to ensure uniform specification. This demands completed movement throughout the tank with bottom-to-top-to-bottom turnover, as well as circulation around the tank. This ensures that the media at the bottom, middle, and top is uniform.

4. Temperature UniformityAid heat transfer while heating or cooling or to maintain temperature uniformity complete fluid motion where bottom-to-top-to-bottom turnover would normally be required. Positioning of the mixers relative to the heating elements is also important to obtain the desired process results.

5. Crude Oil/Optimization Enhancement/UpgradingThis could be enhancement/optimization/upgrading of different crude oils to achieve a certain specification of Sulphur Content, Density, or Viscosity to satisfy a certain refining recipe.

How Does It Work?Standard Mixer Propellers generate wide flow patterns (high shear/slip “Zonal Agitation”) that lack penetration power(thrust). The standard propellers also lack performance energy for solids suspension. “Zonal Mixing” is the only result these types of propellers can hope to achieve.

PMSL’s Lancer™ Advanced Pitch Prop produces exceptional penetrating power (focused flow) able to easily reach the far vessel wall while minimizing the widening of the flow pattern (shear). This optimized focus characteristic will achieve efficient and effective mixing through adequate power requirements, correct propeller selection, and mixers positioned as recommended.

Superior line of mixers designed specifically for tank storage.

Fluid MotionFluid Motion is key to the successful Basic Sediment & Water(BS&W) Prevention, Blending, homogenization, Temperature Uniformity and Crude Oil optimization - enhancement -upgrading in storage tank applications. The key to fluid motion is the correct propeller. Lancer Props utilize the latest in technology fluid dynamic advancements to produce its high efficiency propeller. This technology and superior design produces a jet stream unmatched in it’s application.
