The transition welding between stainless steel and carbon steel must be welded with a continuous fillet weld on the lining zone limits. The leakage detection pipe shall be fitted at the lower edge of each lining zone (see Fig. 2). Pipe nozzle length L = 30 mm + s + insulation thickness of the tank. The amount of pipes depends on the size of the lining zone Tank corners shall be lined with curved steel plates as in fig. 2
