โœฆ Synopsis

A study has been made of 73 case histories of incidents involving heated bitumen storage tanks. The majority of incidents were found to be due to operations such as charging and discharging of tanks, including overfilling which can lead to lagging fires and exposure of heater tubes. A number of incidents were the result of spontaneous ignition or unknown causes: it is proposed that regular cleaning of tanks would reduce the number of these incidents.

## Abstract Optimization of the fin layout in a metal hydride (MH) bed has been sought to enhance poor heat transmission in a hydrogen storage tank, and to obtain a maximum hydrogen absorption rate with a smaller volume of fins. Two different fin configurations, radial and circular fins, in a verti
