    Description

    Industrial process water treatment tanks are specialized storage and processing vessels designed to handle water used in industrial operations, including cooling, manufacturing, chemical processing, and wastewater treatment.

    The core reason for choosing epoxy coated tanks (often called "FBE tanks") for industrial process water is that they strike a very good balance between corrosion resistance, construction efficiency, and overall economic efficiency. They effectively solve the storage problems of many industrial wastewater sources that are highly corrosive, have tight deadlines, and present complex site conditions.

    The epoxy coated steel bolted tanks are made of steel panel which coated with the fusion bonded epoxy internally and externally. High-strength bolts were used for on-site connection and sealing assembly, so that it can achieve efficient corrosion protection and rapid construction, and is widely used in the field of environmental water treatment.

    Features Of Epoxy Coated Steel Tanks
    Excellent Corrosion Resistance

    Wide chemical resistance: It can withstand corrosion from various acids, alkalis, salts, organic solvents, and some oxidants, making it suitable for storing corrosive media in industries such as chemical, electroplating, and pharmaceutical.

    Long-term stability: It is not easily aged or degraded in complex chemical environments, resulting in a long service life.

    High Mechanical Strength & Wear Resistance

    Robust structure: The epoxy resin material has high hardness, good impact and compressive strength, and can withstand certain external loads.

    Wear and scratch resistant: The smooth and wear-resistant inner wall is suitable for storing suspensions containing solid particles. The smooth, uniform surface of FBE steel tanks also improves the appearance of the tank and surrounding area.

    Lightweight & High-Strength, Easy to Install

    Lightweight: Weighs significantly less than steel or concrete tanks of the same volume, reducing transportation and installation costs.

    Modular design: Partially assembleable on-site, adaptable to large or special site requirements.

    Excellent Insulation Properties

    Electrical insulation: Non-conductive, suitable for special storage applications in the electronics and power industries (such as insulating oil and electrolytes).

    Anti-static design: Anti-static function can be achieved by adding conductive materials, suitable for flammable and explosive environments.

    Flexible Customization & Adaptability

    Flexible shape and size: Vertical, horizontal, and irregularly shaped structures can be customized to suit different spaces.

    Highly integrated with processes: Epoxy coated tanks can not only be used for water storage, but also be integrated with various industrial processes (such as anaerobic and aerobic reactors). These functional prefabricated reactors meet diverse treatment needs.

    Low Maintenance Costs

    No coating required for corrosion protection: Unlike metal tanks, no regular application of anti-corrosion coatings is needed.

    Easy cleaning: The smooth inner wall prevents material buildup, making cleaning simple and reducing residue.

    Environmental Protection & Safety

    Non-toxic and Pollution-Free: Food-grade epoxy resin can be used for the storage of drinking water and food additives.

    Flame Retardant Option: Flame retardant properties can be achieved through formulation adjustments to meet fire safety requirements.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    Q What are epoxy coated steel bolted tanks, and why are they used for industrial process water treatment?
    Epoxy coated steel bolted tanks (also known as FBE tanks) are steel panel tanks coated with fusion bonded epoxy both internally and externally, assembled on-site using high-strength bolts. They are widely used in industrial process water treatment because they offer excellent corrosion resistance, rapid installation, and a strong balance between performance and cost-efficiency — making them ideal for handling corrosive wastewater in chemical, manufacturing, and environmental treatment applications.
    Q What pH range can epoxy coated tanks handle?
    Standard grade epoxy coated tanks are suitable for liquids with a pH range of 3 to 11. For more demanding applications involving highly acidic or highly alkaline media, special grade tanks are available that can handle a pH range of 1 to 14, providing comprehensive coverage for most industrial process water conditions.
    Q How long is the expected service life of an epoxy coated steel tank?
    With a coating thickness ranging from 80 to 450 micrometers and a hardness of 2.5 Mohs, epoxy coated steel tanks are engineered for durability. Under normal operating conditions, their service life is more than 15 years. The epoxy coating does not easily age or degrade in complex chemical environments, minimizing the need for frequent maintenance or replacement.
    Q Can epoxy coated tanks be customized for different industrial applications?
    Yes. Epoxy coated tanks offer a high degree of flexibility in terms of shape and size — including vertical, horizontal, and irregularly shaped configurations — to suit various site conditions. They can also be integrated with industrial processes such as anaerobic and aerobic reactors, functioning as prefabricated treatment units that meet diverse water treatment needs beyond simple storage.
    Q Are epoxy coated tanks safe for storing drinking water or food-grade liquids?
    Yes. Food-grade epoxy resin formulations are available, making these tanks suitable for the storage of drinking water and food additives. The coating is non-toxic and pollution-free under approved formulations. Additionally, optional flame retardant properties can be incorporated through formulation adjustments to meet specific fire safety standards.
    Q What are the main advantages of epoxy coated tanks over traditional steel or concrete tanks?
    Compared to traditional steel or concrete tanks, epoxy coated steel tanks offer several key advantages: they are significantly lighter, reducing transportation and installation costs; they require no periodic anti-corrosion coating applications; their smooth inner walls resist material buildup for easier cleaning; and their modular, bolted design allows for fast on-site assembly even in complex environments. These factors combine to deliver lower total lifecycle costs and greater operational efficiency.
