For tank work, inches water column (in. wc) or ounces per square inch (osi) are commonly used to express the value of pressure or vacuum in the vapor space of a tank. These pressures are usually very low relative to atmospheric pressure. The common measures of pressure are compared as follows ... 

A hold tank is installed in an aqueous effluent-treatment process to smooth out fluctuations in concentration in the effluent stream. The effluent feed to the tank normally contains no more than 100 ppm of acetone. The maximum allowable concentration of acetone in the effluent discharge is set at 200 ppm. The surge tank working capacity is 500 m3 and it can be considered to be perfectly mixed. The effluent flow is 45,000 kg/h. If the acetone concentration in the feed suddenly rises to 1000 ppm, due to a spill in the process plant, and stays at that level for half an hour, will the limit of 200 ppm in the effluent discharge be exceeded ... 

To better observe how the tank works like a capacitor, consider the inlet flow rate to be constant and we have a pump only at the outlet. The transfer function is now just... 

Water-gas-tar creosote is an oil similar in many ways to coal-tar creosote, but its value as a fence post preservative has not been fully established. It is possible that good results would be obtained from its use in open-tank work. 

A red zone / area exists if the TGW value is exceeded or if the measures required by the surveillance authorities are not respected. In general, work under these conditions is not allowed. However, under certain circumstances or for certain activities (e.g. tunnel construction, cleaning of vessels and tanks, work to remove asbestos etc.) in which the TGW cannot be respected, exemptions are foreseen. 

The relieved vent stream enters the catch tank at one end, the gas phase is separated from the liquid phase, the liquid phase remains in the catch tank and the gas leaves it at the other end. Such catch tanks working accordii to the gravity separator principle are widely used in industry, because they are applicable for many substances. Another advantage is the capacity to contain large volumes and the fact that they may be placed quite a distance away from the reaction vessel. 

The driver had been given instruction on tank work. The company did not have any written instructions on going into the tank, measuring in the tank or safety actions in this kind of case...
