A container for storing liquids includes an inner layer including a storage space for storing liquids; an outer layer; and multiple spacers fastened between the inner layer and the outer layer to form multiple compartments. The spacer includes a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is secured to an adhesive layer of the inner layer. The first surface has many cavities. The second surface is secured to the outer layer and having projections complimentarily secured to the cavities. A manufacturing method of the container is also provided. Therefore, it can solve the problem permeation and adhesive failure caused by leaking. It can generate an early alarm by detecting any leaking or permeation of the container.

An improved shelving unit for a shipping container is disclosed herein. The improved shelving unit can comprise one or more shelf assemblies and an RFID reader. Each of the one or more shelf assemblies can comprise a bottom platform and a top platform. The RFID reader can be mounted between the bottom platform and the top platform. The top platform can be capable of supporting items.

The present invention provides a system (1) to prevent the formation of fuel vapors comprising a containment tank (10) and a variable volume tank (12) accommodatable within the containment tank (10), wherein the variable volume tank (12) is configured to receive liquid fuel. Our invention can be used in any tanks or reservoirs of liquid products that attack the ozone layer, preventing the formation of vapors that are extremely harmful to nature and the environment.

A construction element includes a first wall, and a second wall. The walls are arranged at a distance from one another, forming a space wherein at least one non-concrete composite bar is arranged. Concrete is arranged in the space between the first wall, the second wall, and the composite bars.

A method of creating a stand-off between insulation and chime on a storage tank is provided. A plurality of tank chime spacers are positioned in space relation to each other such that the bottom of the tank chime spacer is positioned on the tank chime and one of the peripheral side walls of the tank chime spacer is positioned adjacent to the sidewalls of the storage tank to create a gap between the tank chime and the sidewalls of the storage tank. Each of the tank chime spacers has a body with a top, a bottom and peripheral side walls.

Systems and methods relating to the safety of railway cars carrying flammable materials. A rail tank car having an inner tank and an outer protective wall surrounding the inner tank is provided. The outer surface of the inner tank and the inner surface of the outer protective wall are separated by a gap. A low emissivity coating is applied to one or both of the outer surface of the inner tank and the inner surface of the outer protective wall. Existing rail tank cars with a similar construction can be retrofitted by spraying the low emissivity coating inside the gap to thereby coat at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface. Preferably, the low emissivity coating has an emissivity coefficient of, at most, 0.8.

The double-walled waste container provides an open-top roll-off container being rectangular in shape and having latching door portions at one end. The container employs a double wall construction to minimize damage, improve strength, and reduce weight. Additionally, the container provides a plurality of drain apertures which extend a full length of the container to drain off accumulated liquids and to prevent corrosion of the container.

A storage and transportation container for a radome of an aircraft is disclosed having a top wall, and bottom wall that are planar and parallel to one another, and a peripheral wall, wherein the top, bottom, and peripheral walls form an enclosure for supporting the radome within the container. The top wall has a closed curved outline and a surface of a dimension greater than that of the bottom wall having an outline which forms a parallelogram thus making it possible to receive the radome with its curved nose pointing downwards, and wherein the geometry of the container is matched to the form of the radome and of the hold.

A holding container includes a plurality of pre-formed, releasably interlocking, load-bearing panels configured to form an at least partially curved, load-bearing wall extending around the perimeter of at least one storage area capable of containing at least 100,000 gallons of liquids, solids or a combination thereof. At least one among the width and length of each panel is less than 102 inches in a non-load-bearing state.

A liquefied gas storage tank includes: an inner shell storing a liquefied gas; an outer shell forming a vacuum space between the inner shell and the outer shell; and a fail-safe thermal insulating layer covering an outer side surface of the outer shell. According to this configuration, the fail-safe thermal insulating layer is not disposed in the vacuum space. This makes it possible to suppress the degradation over time of the degree of vacuum in the vacuum space.
