An SS horizontal tank refers to a Tank made from stainless steel (SS), which is widely used in various industries due to its excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and durability.
Key Features:
- Material Properties: Stainless steel offers high resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it suitable for reactive and corrosive environments.
- Durability: SS reactor vessels have a long lifespan, even under high pressure and temperature conditions.
- Hygienic Design: Often used in applications requiring strict cleanliness and sanitation, such as pharmaceuticals and food processing.
Applications:
- Pharmaceuticals: Commonly used for storage precise solvents and precise chemical as a API intermediates.
- Dyes & Intermediates: Commonly used for safe storage and handling of all organic’s chemical (as such Nitric Acid 70% & Thionyl chloride and many various processes intermediate stage mass storage, as well as many solvents as such Ethylene Oxide and other comprehensive solvents.
- Chemical Processing: many other industries as such textile auxiliary specialty chemicals store the all chemicals
- Petrochemicals: Store the solvents and thinner and reflux material.
- Agrochemicals: All Liquid raw material storage in horizontal storage tank, as such MCB, Phenol, Xylene.
Considerations:
- Cost: Stainless steel is generally more expensive than mild steel, but its benefits often justify the cost in critical applications.
- Welding and Fabrication: Requires specialized skills for welding and fabrication to maintain integrity and prevent corrosion at joints.
- Maintenance: Regular cleaning and inspection are important to prevent contamination and ensure the vessel's longevity.
