VERFAHREN ZUR ENTSORGUNG DER GASRAUMINHALTE VON GROSSVOLUMIGEN BEHAELTERN BEI UMWELTBELASTENDEN INHALTSTOFFEN

摘要

Process and device for evacuating the content of gas spaces in large containers, such as tanks and the like, in which one tank is emptied and another tank is filled with substances whose gaseous phase causes stress or damage to the environment or can be recycled, and in which the gas space of the tank to be emptied is filled with a replacement substance and the gas content of the tank being filled is passed through a cooling trap. To simplify this process in order to evacuate the content of the gas space using devices and equipment which are optimally compact and easy to handle and which can be used in all ordinary types of tank vehicles, whether rail or road vehicles, the cooling trap (8) is operated with an inert gas, which is also used as the replacement substance to fill the tank being emptied (2).
