Why bulk liquid cargoes shall be secured for the safe transportation in mobile tanks

Bulk liquid cargoes have not been secured in mobile tanks primarily because the significance of improving the safety of liquids transportation using means to secure liquid cargoes which include the elimination of any dynamic behaviour of liquids during transportation, had never been established nor fully been realised. Secondly, no bulk liquid load securing means were developed nor become available to bulk liquid transportation companies. Research, recently concluded at the University of Twente, the Netherlands, not only provides for bulk liquid slosh mitigating and securing means but also has demonstrated the need for applying such means.
