Abstract
The use of acoustic emission detection technology can conduct online and non-stop detection and evaluation of crude oil metal storage tanks, achieving the integrity detection and evaluation of storage tanks. In order to explore the applicability of acoustic emission detection technology in the leakage detection of the bottom plate of crude oil metal storage tanks, this project carried out online acoustic emission detection of crude oil metal storage tanks, magnetic flux leakage detection after tank opening and cleaning, and compared and analyzed the results of two detection technologies. The adaptability of online acoustic emission detection technology was analyzed and explored. It was found that acoustic emission technology can qualitatively evaluate the corrosion of tank bottom plates, but cannot accurately locate corrosion defects. For tanks with severe corrosion that require maintenance, it is still necessary to open the tank and use magnetic flux leakage and other detection techniques to determine the location of defects. Through comparative analysis of acoustic emission testing technology and magnetic flux leakage testing technology, the results obtained from acoustic emission testing technology are conservative compared to the actual results. It is recommended to upgrade the evaluation of corrosion degree for the acoustic emission evaluation results of crude oil metal storage tanks.
