The condition of the waste in the tank is analogous to a person in a metal car or a metal cage (Faraday cage), with millions of volts from a Van de Graaff generator passing through the cage (=-=Newcott 1993-=-). Because of the low energy required to ignite flammable gas mixtures, it is reasonable to make the conservative assumption that any strike within a farm, including over buried pipes. will cause one ... |

As part of WHC-SD-WM-TR-034, Single Shell Tank Riser Resistance to Ground Test Repon (=-=Kiewert 1996-=-), an inventory of riser size (both cross-sectional area and height) was done. For example, each of the 12 tanks in T Farm (1,850,000 L or 500,000 gal), and 4 smaller tanks, have from 3 to 11 risers. ... |
