Possibility of heated petroleum application with various additives addition as solvents for asphaltene-resin-paraffin deposits was analyzed. An object of this investigation was chosen petroleum selected from tank farm of the Kazakhstan oil refinery and samples of bottom sediments (ARPD) formed during storage in tanks. Deposits type in line with ARPD classification was identified. Additives impact on petroleum capacity in relation to ARPD was investigated. The most effective additives to inhibiting and removing bottom settlings formed in petroleum storage tanks were determined.

Two flooded jet methods of tank bottom sediments caving based on either screw propeller generation or nozzle jets generated with entering crude head oppose each other. The comparison is not advantageous for the first one. Exceptionally if crude oil contains some concentration of high molecular weight polymer which can perform Drag Reduction. In this case, the jet range increases by many times, thus, upgrading the capability of caving system. Preventing the sedimentation of crude oil heavy components may be put into practice with Immiscible Layer Technology. Before filling the tank with crude oil, some quantity of heavy liquid, that is immiscible with all the components of crude oil, is poured into the tank. The most suitable/fit for purpose and available liquid is glycerin. Neither paraffin and resins, nor asphaltenes can penetrate through the glycerin layer to settle down at the tank bottom because of its density, which is equal to 1.26 g/cm3. Instead, sediments are concentrated at/on the glycerin surface and when it is heated in external heat exchanger all the sediments ought to move upwards with the convection streams. Thus, no deteriorate sediment is formed in the tank bottom.

The title of this paper is an attempt to be completely candid. No one will argue that the engineer in the citrus processing industry often associates the use of reconditioned steel drums with problems, and we should acknowledge that. Some of these problems, of course, derive from using steel drums for a purpose to which they are not well-suited, and for which they were not really designed. In-plant storage of massive amounts of FCOJ inventory is the best example. That application has been properly taken over, in large degree, by installation in most plants of bulk tank farm storage as is found in almost every other major food industry with a liquid product. The concentrate industry grew so fast during the Fifties and Sixties that it simply took a while before the technology and systems were developed for the logical addition of bulk tank storage. Tanks of course are wonderful things — that is, if the valves don’t leak, and if the product temperature doesn’t get too high, and of course if the manhole covers stay intact!

The Tokachi-Oki earthquake, which occurred in the early morning on September 26th, brought a lot of damage to storage tanks that are located at the oil refinery and the reserve base in Tomakomai City in Hokkaido. There are two stockpiling base in Tomakomai City, National Storage base and private storage base.
