The role of LNG storage tanks in the energy market
Environmental impacts; Economic development.
Environmental impacts: the construction and operation of LNG storage tanks have certain environmental impacts, including air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, groundwater pollution and noise pollution. These environmental impacts are mainly due to the combustion and leakage of LNG. In addition, LNG storage tanks, as pressurized storage tanks, can cause large amounts of LNG to leak when they burst under overpressure, which can have a serious impact on ambient air.
Economic development: The construction of LNG storage tanks has a positive impact on economic development, bringing great opportunities for national and regional energy supply, industrial development and economic growth. It promotes the stability of energy supply and creates a large number of local employment opportunities, including engineers, technicians, construction workers, and so on.
