- Fiberglass and resin are then applied over the cardboard molds and onto adjacent areas of the cylinder so as to become an integral part of the inner tank shell.
- the mold is finally removed.
- ⁇ ribs and one end of the tank are produced in this stage of the method.
- the above steps are repeated to obtain a second half-tank.
- the two half-tanks are then joined together by appropriate sealing means.

- the mold is removed.
- the interior portion of the tank next has a fiberglass/resin layer applied over the rib indentations to result in a smooth cylindrical-shaped interior.
- a second half-tank is formed in the same manner and the two halves joined.
- a cylindrical-shaped outer tank is then formed in horizontal halves.
- the formed inner tank and outer tank halves are assembled as in the first method described above to form a double walled storage tank system based on two rigid tanks with support ribs therebetween.
- - used storage tanks can be provided with secondary containment means in a convenient, yet economical manner. Further, used storage tanks are refurbished to a standard equivalent to that possessed by a new tank and then upgraded to have a secondary containment feature.
- a method of adding secondary containment capability to storage tanks comprises the steps of (a) applying a gas pervious material to a storage tank, (b) applying a layer of a fibrous reinforcing material onto the storage tank, and (c) applying a resinous material onto the reinforcing material. When the resinous material is cured, a containment means is formed which covers at least about the

- an access tube 24 extends from ground level through the jacket so as to be in communication with the closed space.
- the " closed space can be filled with a detecting liquid.
- This detecting liquid can be placed in the closed space by the manufacturer of the tank due to the fact the closed space between the storage tank and jacket occupies a small volume, e.g. about
- a sight glass 25 At the end of the access tube is a sight glass 25. Whenever leakage occurs, a change in the level or color of a detecting liquid will occur and will be readily observed in the sight glass.
- non-visual leak detection means such as pressure transducers or float controls can be used to detect a change in level.
- the closed space can be placed either
- Detection means associated with the closed space is capable of detecting any change in pressure resulting from the leak in the jacket or the storage tank. As shown in FIG. 5, there is provided a means 26 for
- a pressure change sensor 27 is a part of the detection means.
- a pressure gauge serves this purpose adequately.

- the failure to maintain the pressure is an indication that a leak is still present.
- a vacuum of at least about 3 inches of mercury is applied.
- a vacuum of from about 3 inches to about 10 inches of mercury is applied. This will show not only whether the storage tank still contains leaks, but whether it is structurally sound and capable of being completely refurbished. That is, once the leaks in a used tank have been repaired and the aforementioned vacuum applied, the structural soundness of the tank is " established. In the absence of such soundness-, the tank will collapse. Of course, when this happens, the tank must be scrapped without continuing further with the steps of this invention or special structural work undertaken.

Abstract
Procédé de fabrication d'un réservoir de stockage à double paroi (10) consistant à appliquer un agent de séparation perméable au gaz (19) à un réservoir de stockage (10), à appliquer une couche de matériau de renforcement fibreux sur l'agent de séparation (19) et à appliquer ensuite une double paroi résineuse (17). La double paroi qui en résulte (17), couvrant au moins 40% de la surface du réservoir de stockage (10) a une structure indépendante du dit réservoir. La double paroi (17) forme ainsi un compartiment secondaire de contenance réelle. Un système de réservoir de stockage à compartiment de contenance dont l'étanchéité n'est pas totale est obtenu par l'utilisation d'un dispositif de détection de fuite (27) destiné à régler l'espace fermé situé entre le réservoir de stockage (10) et la double paroi (17), afin de contrôler la fuite du réservoir ou de la double paroi.
