ProposalDescription: 

Status quo: Existing LPG site with buildings and 50m3 LPG storage tank. Planned: The existing site with 50m3 LPG storage (see above) will be expanded to include another 80m3 LPG storage, therefore capacity will increase to 130m3. The storage will now be in two (2) 65m3 tanks (unstenched propellants). See Figure 4-1. 1 delivery per week. 60m. tankers. Gas detection installer at filling bay, gas storage vessels and pumps at tanks.

Expanded_Motivation: 

Economic: Need for expansion: In order to operate their existing facilities economically, more LPG storage capacity is required. Need & desirability & sustainability of LPG as an energy source: Economic: LPG is more economical than many other energy sources due to its very high thermal efficiency and low maintenance requirements as it avoids scaling and corrosion of parts which also extends the lifespan of infrastructure. Environment: LPG is environmentally friendly as it is a cleaner energy source: • It has minimal sulphur content. • It has the lowest black carbon emissions – low carbon alternative to conventional fossil fuels. • It is clean burning and emits 33% less CO2 (carbon dioxide) than coal and 15% less than heating oil – the lowest CO2 emissions amongst all refined fuels. • It has a low particle emission. • It has low NOx emissions.
