Kilo there is no structural limit for the fuel tanks. The limit you have probably heard about is a Boeing limitation of 450 - 500 kg to remain in the centre tank. This is due to the fuel pumps currently in use, and they don't want us to operate them without being immersed in fuel. That is a very basic answer but hope it helps.
