Corrosion-Resistant FBE tank for Wastewater Treatment
description
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 wastewater treatment.
The epoxy coated bolted steel tank is mainly consisted of steel panel that has been internally and externally coated with a layer of epoxy-based protective paint. Fusion bonded epoxy is an electrostatically applied coating system with superior coverage and uniform coating thickness.

Advantages of Epoxy Coated Steel Tanks
• Excellent corrosion resistance
Excellent chemical resistance: It resists corrosion from a wide range of acids, alkalis, salts, organic solvents and certain oxidizing agents, making it ideal for the storage of corrosive media in chemical, electroplating, pharmaceutical and other industrial applications.
Long-term stability: It is not easily aged or degraded in complex chemical environments, resulting in a long service life.
• High mechanical strength and wear resistance
Sturdy construction: Epoxy resin exhibits high hardness, favorable impact resistance and compressive strength, and is capable of bearing certain external mechanical loads.
Superior chemical resistance: It can endure corrosion caused by diverse acids, alkalis, salts, organic solvents and several oxidizing agents, thus being suitable for storing corrosive media in industries including chemical, electroplating and pharmaceutical.
• Excellent sealing and leak-proof performance
Seamless molding: Often uses integral winding or casting processes, with no weld seams or gaps, eliminating the risk of leakage.
Sealing design: Combines high-performance seals to ensure no leakage of volatile or hazardous substances.
• Lightweight and 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
Good electrical insulation: It features non-conductive properties, making it suitable for special storage scenarios in the electronics and power industries, including 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 and adaptability
Flexible shape and size: Vertical, horizontal, and irregularly shaped structures can be customized to suit different spaces.
Reinforced lining: Can be composited with fiberglass (FRP) or modified resin to further improve temperature and pressure resistance.
• Low maintenance costs
No anti-corrosion coating needed: Different from metal storage tanks, it does not require regular application of protective corrosion coatings.
Easy cleaning: The smooth inner wall prevents material buildup, making cleaning simple and reducing residue.
• Environmental Protection and Safety
Non-toxic and environmentally friendly: Food-grade epoxy resin is suitable for storing drinking water and food additives.
Flame Retardant Option: Flame retardant performance can be obtained via formula modification, so as to satisfy fire safety standards and requirements.
Uses of Epoxy Coated Steel Tanks
Epoxy coated steel tanks are used in a wide range of industries for their durability, corrosion resistance and versatility. They are often used in applications requiring moderate corrosion resistance and lower cost:
• Edible/Vegetable Oils
• Dry Bulk Solids
• Farm Digesters
• Fire Water
• Potable Water
• Filter Tanks
• Municipal Sludge Storage/Treatment
All applications must take chemical concentration and temperature into account. All specifications apply only to the contact surfaces. Detailed specifications can be provided upon request.
Overall, epoxy coated steel tanks represent a durable, long‑lasting and corrosion‑resistant solution for water storage. They adapt to diverse application scenarios and come in multiple sizes to satisfy the specific requirements of different projects.
