Spiral Wound Chemical Storage Tanks Manufactured in High-Density Polyethylene and Polypropylene
Developed in partnership with Cambridge University in the early 90’s and continuously improving our spiral wound manufacturing method creates the highest quality, market-leading chemical storage tanks. Capable of safely storing chemicals ranging from weakly acidic/alkaline, up to those which are highly oxidising such as 96% Sulphuric Acid or 15% Sodium Hypochlorite.
We have the capacity to manufacture vessels up to 4.3m in diameter and 130,000l capacity, following the current market trend for larger capacity tanks for bulk chemical storage. Every chemical storage tank we design meets our customers exact requirements and conforms to the British and European standard BS EN 12573: 2000 ‘Welded static non-pressurized thermoplastic tanks’.
We specialise in using thermoplastics due to their inert nature when dealing with some of the most aggressive chemicals. Specifically, we use Corrosion Resistant Polypropylene and High-Density Polyethylene (PE100-RC).
We are also able to provide full Turnkey Project Services including delivery and site installation and a broad range of Valves, Pumps and Controls and ChemiGuard Pressurised Offloading Cabinets and Pumped Offloading Cabinets and Dosing Cabinets for safe fluid transfer.
Chemical Storage Tanks Advantages:
- A broad range of chemical resistance
- Corrosion resistance both internally and externally
- The ability to specify a chemical tank design life with unlimited fill and empty cycles
- Lightweight chemical tank construction leading to reduced installation costs
- Resistance to stress cracking (PE100-RC)
Chemical Storage Tanks Available additional features:
- Flat, Sloping and Coned base construction
- Heating, insulation and cladding
- Integrated safety bunds, an alternative to lined concrete bunds
- Rain-skirt for external siting
- Improved access options: including ladderwork, handrails and roof strengthening
- Recirculation systems
CHEMICAL STORAGE TANKS ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
