Heavy-Duty FRP Chemical Storage Tank – Corrosion Resistant Acid & Alkali Vessel

Product Overview

Engineered for the harshest industrial environments, our Heavy-Duty FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) Chemical Storage Tanks provide a superior solution for the containment of aggressive acids, alkalis, and solvents. Unlike traditional metal tanks that require frequent maintenance or rubber linings, our filament-wound fiberglass tanks offer a monolithic, leak-proof structure with inherent corrosion resistance throughout the vessel wall.

Designed to replace stainless steel and lined-steel vessels, this corrosion-resistant acid & alkali vessel is ideal for storage of sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and wastewater, ensuring long-term safety and compliance with environmental regulations.

Key Features & Advantages

  • Advanced Filament Winding Technology: Manufactured using computer-controlled micro-winding processes, ensuring a high glass-to-resin ratio for maximum structural strength and hoop tensile stress resistance.

  • Superior Chemical Resistance: The inner liner is fabricated using premium Vinyl Ester or Epoxy resins (such as Derakane 411/470 equivalent), specifically selected based on your chemical medium to prevent corrosion, blistering, or delamination.

  • Standards Compliance: Fully designed and manufactured in accordance with ASTM D3299 (Filament-Wound Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermoset Resin Corrosion-Resistant Tanks) and ASME RTP-1 standards.

  • Maintenance-Free Durability: The exterior features a UV-resistant, resin-rich topcoat that withstands weathering, requiring no painting or rust-proofing, with a design life exceeding 20 years.

  • Customizable Configurations: Available in Vertical Flat Bottom, Vertical Cone Bottom, Horizontal, and Double-Wall designs to suit specific site requirements.

Industry Applications

Our Heavy-duty FRP vessels are trusted by engineers across various sectors for industrial chemical containment:

  • Chemical Processing: Bulk storage of Hydrochloric Acid (HCl), Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4), Nitric Acid (HNO3), and Sodium Hypochlorite.

  • Water & Wastewater Treatment: Storage for Coagulants (PAC/PAM), pH neutralization tanks, and leachate storage.

  • Metal Finishing & Pickling: Acid pickling baths, electroplating solution circulation tanks.

  • Food & Beverage: Fermentation tanks and storage for soy sauce/vinegar (using FDA-compliant food-grade resins).

  • Petrochemical: Storage of drilling fluids, brine water, and oil-water separation.

Quality Assurance & Testing

Every tank undergoes rigorous inspection before shipment to ensure zero defects:

  • Hydrostatic Leak Test

  • Barcol Hardness Test (Cure verification)

  • Acetone Sensitivity Test

  • Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement

  • Visual Inspection for air bubbles or dry spots
