Some misconceptions and key preparations for anti-corrosion storage tanks

For anti-corrosion storage tanks, as their main application is in the chemical industry, it can be considered that they are still widely used and cannot be ignored as a type of storage tank. Therefore, let's further deepen and expand our knowledge, so that we can know and understand more, and be able to use this type of boiler reasonably and correctly in practice, and play its due role.

1. Can anti-corrosion storage tanks only be used in the chemical industry?

The answer to this question is negative because this viewpoint is too one-sided and tends to generalize. Chemical storage tanks are mainly used in the chemical industry, and it cannot be assumed that these tanks can only be used in the chemical industry. In other occasions or places, if there are anti-corrosion requirements, anti-corrosion storage tanks can also be used.

2. Key points of preparation work for anti-corrosion storage tanks

For anti-corrosion storage tanks, there are also some key points in the preparation work, mainly including:

(1) Develop corresponding anti-corrosion construction plans based on anti-corrosion requirements, and ensure that they are reasonable and appropriate. In addition, budget work is also required for the plan.

(2) There are some requirements for the production and acceptance of anti-corrosion storage tanks. The main thing is that there should be no welding slag or burrs on its surface. And if there are sharp edges, they must be polished or transitioned. If there are special requirements, non-destructive testing and leak testing should also be conducted.

(3) The construction should strictly comply with relevant regulations and requirements, and before construction, some specific precautions should be known, as well as checking whether the construction environment meets the regulatory requirements to ensure construction quality.

3. For anti-corrosion storage tanks, what kind of paint is usually used for anti-corrosion on the inner wall?

The anti-corrosion of the inner wall of the anti-corrosion storage tank is generally achieved by using epoxy paints, mainly including epoxy phenolic paint and epoxy glass flake paint. The main requirement for paint is to be able to resist acid, alkali, and solvent corrosion, in order to have a good anti-corrosion effect.
