Metal Tank #5737653

Pressed steel sectional tanks are designed to store from 1m3 of water up to 1300m3 and have been used globally in applications such as water refueling for steam engines, mine boilers and power steam generating turbines. They have also been widely used for storing potable water as well process water for industrial and food processing, hotels, hospitals and the utilities sectors. The technology is well and truly tried tested and proven with an enviable track recording spanning many decades and due to its reputation is still sought after.

Galvanised Mild Steel Rectangular Sectional Panel Tanks are ideally suited for erection in confined and already constructed areas as panels can be placed in a room to be erected even after construction of the building. These tanks are used in all sectors including Oil & Gas, Food & Beverage, Mining and Rural development applications.

SOLICO Epoxy Powder Coated Steel Tanks are designed to deliver the optimum coating for a tank that is able to store a wide range of liquids from Potable drinking water to the most aggressive and corrosive of all water, demineralised water.

Epoxy coated tanks provide the latest developments in steel tank coating technology and is superior to Glass Coated or Enameled Tanks, providing significant added value through engineering and cost benefits to users extending the range of applications and storage options.

The benefits of epoxy coated steel tanks against more traditional tank coatings include higher durability to impact, lower maintenance costs due to the efficient design coating principles.Advantages of

Epoxy Powder Coated Steel Tanks

• Eliminates the need for costly labour, intensive site welding and at the same time dispenses with the requirement of elaborate and expensive re-enforced concrete base structures.
• Removes the risk of fire and explosion during erection, a particular advantage on sites that store flammable products and liquids particularly in the Oil & Gas Sector.
• Construction methods allow tanks to be erected within days by a supervisor and team of semi-skilled labourers.
• Epoxy Powder Coated Steel Tanksare reduced to one tenth of their total volume allowing a 100m tank to be packed onto pallets creating a 10m cubic capacity load which vastly reduces shipping costs

Bolted Stainless Steel Tanks are aesthetically pleasing due to their outstanding appearance, they do not require coating and are recyclable, providing an environmentally-friendly choice for storage.Stainless Steels are generally considered non hazardous to human health or the environment and are therefore specified and regularly used for applications where safety and hygiene is the prime consideration.

Some examples include equipment in contact with drinking water, food processing plants, and medical water storage usingstainless steel tanks ensures a guaranteed maintenance-free storage facility and years of use. In fact, bolted stainless steel tanks, designed to meet AWWA standards, have a product life expectancy in excess of 40 years or more.

Stainless Steel Tanks are widely used in the Chemical Processing as well as Oil & Gas Industries and is even used to store dilute solutions of nitric acid. Stainless was developed to have greater corrosion resistance at a broad range of different temperatures. These are used in Power Generation for desalination plants and sewage plants.

Stainless Steel Tanks are also widely used in food factories as process and storage vessels. The most commonly used grades are 304 and 316, although in general 304 is the workhorse grade while 316 is used for harsher applications.
