FBE Coated Tank for Petroleum Refineries: Provides strong containment for various process liquids, resisting internal corrosion.

FBE Coated Tank for Petroleum Refineries: Provides strong containment for various process liquids, resisting internal corrosion.

A Petroleum Refinery is a facility that handles an extremely broad range of hazardous and corrosive liquids, including crude oil, various process intermediates, chemical additives, and complex wastewater streams. Effective containment requires a vessel that offers strong containment for various process liquids—a solution that is structurally robust, permanently resistant to and , and capable of resisting internal corrosion across all fluid types. The Fusion Bonded Epoxy Coated Tank is engineered for this highly regulated and hostile industrial environment, providing a strong containment for various process liquids, resisting internal corrosion.

The Critical and Corrosive Environment of a Refinery

Containment vessels for a Petroleum Refinery face some of the most demanding chemical and structural challenges in heavy industry:

Hydrocarbon and Chemical Aggression : Refinery liquids range from crude oil to refined fuels, acidic condensates, and complex oily wastewater. These various process liquids require a tank lining that is chemically inert and permanently resistant to hydrocarbon saturation and attack, demanding a strong containment solution.

and Corrosive Water : Refinery water streams and stored crude often contain high levels of dissolved , chlorides, and other corrosive agents that accelerate internal corrosion. The vessel must be built with a superior coating to permanently resist internal corrosion and safeguard the structural steel.

High-Security Containment: Due to the flammable, toxic, and polluting nature of refinery process liquids, absolute strong containment is mandatory. The vessel must be structurally unyielding, engineered to the highest standards, and absolutely leak-proof.

High Structural Load: Refinery operations often require massive storage capacity. The tank must be structurally certified for the immense hydrostatic loads of high-density crude oil and other process liquids.

A reliable refinery demands a solution that provides strong containment for various process liquids, resisting internal corrosion under extreme conditions.

The FBE Solution: Strong, Corrosion-Resistant Containment

Center Enamel’s Fusion Bonded Epoxy Bolted Steel Tanks are explicitly designed as the strong containment solution for refinery applications:

Superior Chemical Resistance : The molecularly bonded coating is a dense, inert thermoset polymer that provides a permanent barrier. This barrier is highly effective against the corrosive effects of , chlorides, various solvents, and organic acids found in process liquids, making it excellent at resisting internal corrosion.

Robust Structural Integrity : Constructed from high-tensile, factory-engineered steel, tanks offer certified structural strength. They are a strong containment vessel capable of safely managing the high hydrostatic loads associated with the large-scale storage of refinery liquids.

High-Integrity and Leak-Proof Design: The precision-engineered, bolted panel design and specialized sealants ensure a liquid-tight, gas-tight vessel, critical for the secure containment for various process liquids and compliance with strict fire and safety regulations.

Versatility for Various Process Liquids: tanks serve as a versatile solution across the refinery, ideal for oily wastewater equalization, fire suppression water storage, utility water, and various intermediate chemical storage. This inherent versatility makes it a cost-effective solution for facility-wide standardization.

Cost-Effective and Rapid Deployment: The modular construction ensures extremely fast on-site assembly, minimizing labor costs and project timelines. This is a critical advantage for the quick establishment or expansion of strong containment capacity within the complex logistics of a refinery site.

Long-Term Investment in Refinery Safety

Refinery infrastructure demands a long-lasting storage solution due to the high costs associated with downtime and environmental remediation. The tank, as a strong containment solution, offers superior long-term reliability:

Minimized Maintenance: The permanent bond and chemical resistance of the coating drastically reduce the need for costly internal maintenance, surface preparation, or relining, ensuring the tank remains functional and resisting internal corrosion for decades.

Regulatory Compliance: The robust structure and certified coating guarantee the strong containment of potentially hazardous process liquids, ensuring continuous compliance with rigorous environmental and safety standards.

Extended Service Life: Engineered for a service life exceeding 30 years, the tank ensures the Petroleum Refinery infrastructure remains fully functional, preventing the high capital expense of premature replacement.
