30KL MS Chemical Storage Tank

A Double Wall Chemical Storage Tank is a specialized storage tank designed to safely store hazardous or corrosive chemicals by providing two layers of containment. The inner tank holds the chemical, while the outer tank acts as a secondary containment barrier to prevent leaks from reaching the environment.

Description

A Double Wall Chemical Storage Tank consists of:

• Inner Tank: Stores the chemical and is manufactured from materials compatible with the stored liquid, such as HDPE, FRP, stainless steel, or carbon steel with protective lining.
• Outer Tank (Secondary Containment): Surrounds the inner tank and is designed to contain the entire contents of the inner tank in the event of a leak or failure.
• Interstice (Leak Detection Space): The gap between the inner and outer walls can be equipped with leak detection sensors or monitoring systems to provide early warning of any leakage.
• Fittings and Accessories: Includes filling nozzles, vent pipes, level indicators, overflow protection, drain valves, manholes, and inspection ports.

Key Features

• Dual-layer construction for enhanced safety
• Secondary containment eliminates the need for external bund walls in many applications
• Leak detection capability for early identification of failures
• Excellent resistance to corrosion and chemical attack
• Reduced environmental contamination risk
• Suitable for indoor and outdoor installations
• Low maintenance and long service life

Applications

Double wall chemical storage tanks are widely used in:

• Chemical manufacturing plants
• Water and wastewater treatment facilities
• Pharmaceutical industries
• Food and beverage processing (for approved chemicals)
• Mining and metal processing
• Power plants
• Petrochemical industries
• Laboratories and industrial processing facilities

Commonly Stored Chemicals

Depending on the tank material, these tanks can safely store:

• Sulfuric Acid (HSO)
• Hydrochloric Acid (HCl)
• Sodium Hydroxide (Caustic Soda)
• Nitric Acid
• Ferric Chloride
• Sodium Hypochlorite
• Phosphoric Acid
• Urea Solution
• Various industrial solvents and process chemicals

Benefits

• Improved personnel and environmental safety
• Compliance with environmental and safety regulations
• Reduced risk of chemical spills
• Lower installation costs compared to separate containment systems
• Continuous leak monitoring
• Increased operational reliability

Typical Materials of Construction

Summary

A Double Wall Chemical Storage Tank is an advanced containment system that provides both primary storage and secondary spill protection in a single unit. Its dual-wall design significantly enhances operational safety, minimizes environmental risks, and helps industries comply with stringent safety and environmental regulations while ensuring reliable storage of hazardous chemicals
