📝 Description

This 36,400-gallon vertical fiberglass storage tank, manufactured by Fabricated Plastics Limited in 2009, is built to store highly corrosive liquids such as sodium hypochlorite, which it previously contained. Constructed with 2-Nexus veil and 3-mat corrosion liner and reinforced with Derakane 510A/411 epoxy vinyl ester resin (BPO/DMA cured), this tank offers superior chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and longevity in aggressive service conditions.

The tank features a 14-foot diameter and 20-foot straight side height, with a dished top and flat bottom. Rated for ±0.25 PSIG and a specific gravity (S.G.) of 1.1–1.2, it includes extensive top and side fittings for integration into plant systems. Manways on both the top and side allow for easy inspection and maintenance access.
