design of fine chemical enterprises, prevent and reduce fire hazards, and ensure personal and property safety. 1.0.2 This standard is applicable to fire protection design for new construction, extension and retrofit of fine chemical enterprises with a total capacity of liquefied hydrocarbon tanks up to 300m3 and individual tank capacity up to 100m3, a total capacity of Class AB and Class B liquid tanks up to 5,000m3 and individual tank capacity up to 1,000m3, a total capacity of Class C liquid tanks up to 25,000m3 and individual tank capacity up to 5,000m3, and a total capacity of combustible gas tanks up to 5,000m3 and individual tank capacity up to 1,000m3, in the storage farm. 1.0.3 The engineering design for fire protection of fine chemical enterprises (the “fire protection design”) shall follow the relevant national approaches and policies, and adopt new techniques, new materials and new equipment on the basis of continuous drawing from production, construction and scientific experiments, so as to be safe, serviceable, technologically advanced, and economical. 1.0.4 The fire protection design shall not only comply with this standard but also current relevant national standards. 2 Terms 2.0.1 fine chemical enterprise factory that produces high-value-added and technology-intensive fine chemical products with specific functions, for specific uses, in small batches and multiple varieties, from primary or secondary chemicals and biomass materials produced in the basic chemical industry as initial feedstock through deep processing 2.0.2 production facilities process equipment required to complete the production process (production of products), including production equipment, industrial building, auxiliary equipment and various supporting facilities   2.0.3 process system system composed of reactor, tower, heat exchanger, container, thermal fluid boiler, pump and other process equipment, pipelines and control instruments 2.0.4 overall major facilities buildings and facilities, e.g. plant-wide office, control, laboratory, power transformation and distribution, fire pump house (station) and enterprise fire station, which may cause heavy casualties and property losses in case of fire 2.0.5 enclosed industrial building production-purpose building with a roof, all or part of which adopts uniformly distributed enclosed wall (including door and window) outer envelopes which cover an area exceeding 1/2 of the surface areas of the building's outer enclosure (excluding the roof) or has a perimeter exceeding 1/4 of the perimeter of the building's outer enclosure, or in any floor of which there is a functional room locally with an closed enclosure covering an area exceeding 1/2 of the floor area 2.0.6 semi-enclosed
