On the use of gravity and the tendency to build up. Gravity is used in many systems in lieu of pumps. It is used to creat pressure for water systems, emergency water purge systems, etc...
In the nuclear industry, you only see 1/3 of the reactor above ground. The rest is below ground. Underneath the reactor there is a dump tank where the moderator goes if there is an event (accident.. leak), for example.
Building things UP is just a natural occurrence because of the use of gravity to create pressure on-demand. It is not that people naturally build things UP, it is just a result of good engineering.
In JBI's case, it seems to me as if the plant is sprawling.
The Envion unit appears to be built UP and has a small footprint.
I do not know refinery processes, hence I could give specific examples of why things may be built UP.
You were asking if I was a construction worker... I have been on job sites so yes I know what a zoom-boom or JLG LIft is.. Thanks.
I look forward to hearing from you tomorrow after your look at JBI.
