Seems to me that smell will be in that tank for a long time. That liquid propane has spent a lot of time getting into the pores of metal inside that tank. I have heard that it will clear, and helping it would be to fill the tank with either water or soapy water and let i set for days, but even that is said not to clear it completely. Ou of curiosity, what is the pressure rating on a 100 lb tank? I have no clue.
Here is one from near home a few months back. A fuel dealer (gas, diesel, oil) that is also a fuel station for trucks and cars was having one of there oil tanks scrapped. A pretty big tank that had set empty for some time. I saw the tank after the mishap, and there is a picture here of the exploded tank that does not do it justice. You would have to physically see the tank that is still there, exploded. One of those tanks that is about 30' or so in diameter, about 20' or so tall. The fella went at it with a cutting torch, and that was a bad idea.
Be careful of long lasting flamable fumes and oders. Good luck.
