DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe one reference devoted exclusively to ASTs, this book assembles the most critical information on the subject in a single convenient volume. The result is an ideal tool for chemical, environmental, and civil engineers, as well as management and government personnel and others concerned with the regulatory issues governing ASTs. Section by section, this complete reference thoroughly examines and clarifies various types of storage media and their applications; fundamental environmental engineering concerns; industrial codes and standards for ASTs; AST design considerations; the proper construction, fabrication, and erection of tanks; and the often-confusing requirements designed to keep ASTs environmentally sound.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Aboveground Steel Storage Tank Handbook I like the summary of regulations in conjunction with industry standards and products. Usually a book covers one or the other. --Wayne Geyer, Executive Vice-President, Steel Tank Institute I think this is a valuable text in that it does a very good job presenting the two types of ASTs. --Darryl J. Butkos, Hydrogeologist and Environmental Engineer The U.S. aboveground storage tank (AST) market will approach $2.0 billion in 1995 and has an annual growth rate of approximately 5 percent. Shop-built ASTs have proliferated over the last 10 years and are replacing the underground tanks that have caused a large percentage of groundwater contamination. Larger field-erected tanks are now found at almost every industrial facility because of their greater reliability and the lessened risk of environmental spills. The Aboveground Steel Storage Tank Handbook discusses the myriad of regulations, codes, and manufacturing standards and shows how they are intertwined. It is the first handbook on aboveground storage tanks that explains the unique differences between field-erected ASTs and shop-built ASTs. The authors have divided the Handbook into four easy-to-understand sections: Markets, Regulations, Standards, and Products. Anyone who finds himself or herself working through the maze of the AST compliance paperwork will find this book to be a great benefit as a single-source reference guide.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Safe Aboveground Storage Tanks: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Transportation and Hazardous Materials of the Committee on Energy and Commerce, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session; September 14, 1994 Obviously, many tank owners are choosing not to follow the American Petroleum Institute standards. And whether you have a large tank or a small tank, a marketing tank, a refinery tank, there is a possibility that there will be a leak. It only makes sense that the tank owners prevent those leaks before they occur. Senator Robb is the chief Sponsor of the bill in the Senate. The gao will be reporting to the Congress on the number and types of aboveground storage tanks across the country. While the epa is working to ascertain this information, it is important that we im mediately find answers to these questions and develop policies to prevent these damaging leaks into the environment. So, in summary, there is no question that aboveground tank leaks are clearly pervasive across the country, and they are ongo ing as we speak. I am anxious to work with the committee and the epa and the regulated industries to address the current deficiencies in Federal law and, hopefully, to use hr. 1360 to fill some Of these gaps. And so, in so doing, Congress can address one of the last remaining loopholes in Federal environmental law.
