A simple method to prevent overpressure or underpressure in storage tanks and similar containers is to set an opening at the top of the container. In this case, any excess air or gas can freely escape when products are injected into the container; conversely, air can enter the container when products are discharged. However, air entering the storage tank may contaminate the product, especially when organic solvents and hydrocarbons are stored, explosive gases (or air) can form above the product; in addition, there is also a possibility of releasing harmful gases and vapors.

To prevent the occurrence of the aforementioned situations, the storage tank must be sealed; however, the materials stored in the tank are under atmospheric pressure conditions, necessitating the avoidance of overpressure during filling or temperature increase, as well as the prevention of vacuum during product discharge. Therefore, the installation of an airtight sealing system is particularly essential.

The nitrogen sealing system is a pressure-based gas sealing process that ensures the top space of the storage tank is under the protection of inert gas and controlled at a slight positive pressure.
