Fluid Handling Technology News & Innovations
Fluid storage systems are tanks, vessels, and silos that hold liquids, compressed gases or slurries. They are used for short- or long-term storage, or to heat or cold. Unique processes require specific fluid vessels and storage tanks to perform properly.
It is important to deal with the factors that should be addressed in industrial liquid and gas applications including operating temperature, materials of construction, design configurations, pH/acidic levels, corrosion considerations, operating environment, thermal expansion, chemical resistance, and appropriate design standards.
This Technology Zone offers an insight into the latest innovations in fluid storage solutions.
Void spaces inside tubes, pipes, tanks, and other metal components are notoriously difficult to protect against corrosion. It is challenging, if not impossible, to apply a coating or rust preventative to intricate or hard to reach internal surfaces.
