What Are The Applications of Process Tanks?

Chemical Plants

Chemical plants use process tanks to control the flow of material from one process to another. Process tanks, also known as reactors, have a capacity ranging from 10 to 100 thousand gallons. Depending on the chemical being handled, they are typically cylindrical and may be single or double-walled.

Food and Beverage

Process tanks are often found in the food and beverage industry to store ingredients or finished products. The tanks can also be used as a holding tank, which means they are used to hold materials until they are ready for use.

Oil and Fuel

Process tanks are an important component of the oil and fuel processing industry. They are used to hold or process substances during the refining process. They keep the substances in one place so they do not mix and allow them to be easily transported. The tanks are heated, cooled, cleaned, and monitored by specialized equipment. There are three different types of process tanks: coking drums, gas-oil separation tanks, and stills.

Plastic Processing

Process tanks are used in plastic processing to help control the flow of material and maintain pressure. The steel material of process tanks enables them to process, shape, and mold plastics according to the business’s needs.
