Why clean and repair gas station oil tanks regularly

Why do we need to clean and repair gas station oil tanks regularly?
1. Protect the equipment and prolong the service life: it can remove rust and prevent the equipment from corrosion and damage, especially after preventive treatment, the service life of the equipment is prolonged, and the corrosion rate can be reduced by 90% after the corrosion inhibitor is put into it.

2. Keep the oil tank inside the gas station clean and reduce oil pollution: metal and rust can induce oxidation and deterioration of oil. The anti-rust coating on the inner wall of the oil tank can better avoid the catalytic effect of metal on the oxidation of the oil.

3. Reduce accidents and improve the refrigeration effect: it can sterilize and kill algae, remove sludge, make the pipeline unblocked, the oil is clear, while preventing fouling, improve the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser and evaporator, thereby avoiding high-pressure operation and over-pressure shutdown Phenomenon, improve the quality of oil and make the system operate safely.

4. Regular cleaning and maintenance of gas station oil tanks can avoid oxidized colloids and corrosion caused by moisture contamination of oil products: water mixed into oil products can corrode mechanical parts. The presence of moisture will decompose and precipitate some additives such as detergents, dispersants, antioxidants, and anti-knock agents, rendering them ineffective. In addition, the acidic water layer deposited on the bottom of the oil tank at the gas station will accelerate the corrosion of the storage tank, causing the tank wall to become thinner and even leak.

5. Regular cleaning and maintenance of gas station oil tanks can prevent oil mixing or container contamination and deterioration: oils of different natures cannot be mixed, otherwise the oil quality will decrease, and the oil will deteriorate in severe cases.
