On a less serious note, this reminds me of a story I once heard about an explosion at a petrol station. A cat was caught in the explosion and was flung out on fire. It landed about 200m away in a river and survived! Off topic but lol anyways.
I think the major advantage to having tanks underground would be the lack of available oxygen for combustion; get a leak aboveground, and things will go boom. Get one below ground, and not only will the pressure keep gas from escaping, but with no source of ignition or O2, much less risk. That's how my uneducated mind thinks of it, at least.
All i can say is that it had the freeways in dallas jacked up for 2 days. Its amazing that no one died. Alot of very lucky people that day.
They do pump gas back into the ground in natural dry aquafers and crevices in rock.usually not in tanks.There are gas storage fields all over the USA.
They do the same for oil,if you think our national oil reserves are in tanks .................your wrong.
The Laws of Thermodynamics say:
Zeroth Law: "You must play the game."
First Law: "You can't win."
Second Law: "You can't break even."
Third Law: "You can't quit the game."
Do you wanna Play Thermodynamics ???????? I forgot "you must"
They do the same with CO2 too as a liquid.
Bring back natural selection! No more warning lables!

check the triple point.it's needs like 5.1 atmosheres to be liquid,which isn't much. Co2 is used a lot in its supecritical state as a solvent for organic material and something to do with future automobiles,can't remember what that is, another member I,m sure knows more.

Fast computers breed slow, lazy programmers
The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.

Not too sure but I think the pressure in a turbocharged diesel engine might be high enough for the CO2 formed to go supercritical.check the triple point.it's needs like 5.1 atmosheres to be liquid,which isn't much.
