Overview
CPCL was storing LPG, Propylene and Propane are stored in Horton Spheres and Butylene in bullets.
As a risk-reduction measure to provide intrinsically passive & safe environment, Mounded Bullet Storage facility for LPG and Petro-Chemical products was installed as below:
- Mound-1
6 LPG Bullets –1200 MT capacities each.
- Mound-II
6 Petro-chemical Bullets – Propylene (2 x 600MT), Propane (2 x 163 MT) and Butylene (2 x 134MT)
Benefit: Eliminates BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion) of LPG and petrochemical products, thus ensuring a safer environment.
