OxyChem recommends installing double bottom tanks for maximum leak detection and spill prevention. Equipment Pipes, valves and pumps should be made of black iron or carbon steel. The area should be diked to contain drips and spills. It can be stored in outdoor tanks without steam coils, even in areas subject to extremely cold temperatures. Adequate tank size depends on whether shipments are received by tank truck or tank car.
Permissible loads are subject to state regulation.
If a pump is needed for unloading, it should be noted with the order. For more information about handling, health hazards, first aid and treatment, refer to the Material Safety Data Sheets.
