Types of Chemical Storage Tanks; from Day Tanks to Bunded Bulk Storage

Chem Resist are experts in the Chemical Storage Tank industry with a wealth of knowledge spanning over six decades. Chem Resist thermoplastic chemical storage tanks are designed and built to the same exacting standard, but their uses are widely varied. Here we guide you through the different types of tanks and their various uses.

We’ve just received some fantastic feedback on a recent project from K Home International Ltd: “A short note to thank you and your team for a job well done on the Rotherham Tank Farm Project. Please pass on our thanks…

Pushing the boundaries of bunded thermoplastic chemical storage tanks, we have just designed and manufactured the largest and heaviest bunded chemical storage tank in our history.

Chemical dosing applications typically involve the dosing of an exact amount of chemical into a larger volume of liquid. The chemical could be an additive, reagent or a treatment to alter the pH value or concentration of the liquid. Dosing…

Back in the 1960’s, we designed and built our first chemical storage tanks from thermoplastic sheets. At this time alternative materials and formats were still in development, but basic principles will tell you that using flat sheet to create storage tank cylinders comes with challenges.

Fume scrubbers, also known as gas or air scrubbers, have a critical role in removing harmful emissions from industrial applications and protecting human health and the environment. Wet and dry fume scrubbing techniques exist, with wet scrubbing being particularly effective at removing a broad range of both pollutants, including acidic gases, alkalis and particles.

As we enter our 60^th Anniversary year, we discuss with MD, Simon Hewitt what’s driven Chem Resist’s longevity and ongoing success.

“We have 3 foundation stones at Chem Resist; our understanding of thermoplastics, experience of corrosive and aggressive chemicals and our ethos, best explained by ‘Built with Integrity’ which despite being relatively new, is fundamentally what we’re all about.

Sulphuric Acid (US spelling, Sulfuric Acid), chemically known as H₂SO₄, is a highly corrosive, odourless and colourless mineral acid created by a mix of sulphur, oxygen and hydrogen using the contact process.

What a year 2024 has been, we turned 60, built the biggest and heaviest tank in our history, sold more Munsch than ever before and continued our crusade to protect open tanker offload points….

We’ve had another year of growth; designing and manufacturing more large tanks, continuing our mission to protect open tanker offload points and using a lot of pipe!

See what else has been happening and what we have coming up…
