Fiberglass Underground Storage Tank
Underground Fiberglass storage tank, also known as underground FRP container, is a device composed of an impermeable and corrosion-resistant inner layer, a solid structural layer, an anti-aging outer layer, a head, and a saddle. FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic), its raw material is a special plastic, reinforced with glass fiber, similar to the way steel reinforced concrete. When you need storage tanks but have vertical height restrictions, Underground Fiberglass storage tank are a perfect choice.
The underground glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tank is made by the fiber winding method. The advanced and reasonable layer structure of the underground glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tank is a good guarantee for the strength and corrosion resistance of the glass fiber reinforced plastic. At the same time, the method of integral molding is adopted, so that the storage tank will have more perfect corrosion resistance and strength bearing capacity.
The structural layer is formed by a non-alkali non-twisted winding roving infiltrated with the resin of the structural layer by a method of combining spiral and hoop directions. The resin content of this layer is usually about 30-40%. The function is to withstand compressive stress, tensile stress and various external loads. The wall thickness is determined by reasonable and scientific optimization calculations according to the force of the storage tank.
Filament winding molding products have the characteristics of high strength and rigidity, good mechanical properties, etc., and the winding angle can be adjusted according to the different use environment and pressure of the storage tank, with good designability and high product quality and stability.
Excellent physical and chemical properties and durability: The underground glass fiber reinforced plastic tank has high strength, good corrosion resistance, and thermal insulation.
Long service life and low maintenance cost: The inner wall of the underground glass fiber reinforced plastic tank is smooth, non-toxic, tasteless, and easy to clean.
Wide range of applications: Underground FRP storage tanks are widely used in many different fields to store various liquids. underground glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tanks are good corrosion-resistant materials, and have good resistance to atmosphere, water and general concentrations of acids, alkalis, salts, and a variety of oils and solvents. It has been applied to all aspects of chemical corrosion protection.
Light weight: The underground glass fiber reinforced plastic storage tank is made of fiber reinforced plastic, which is light in weight. The relative density is between 1.5 and 2.0, which is only 1/4 to 1/5 of that of carbon steel, but the tensile strength is close to or even higher than that of carbon steel, and the strength is comparable to that of high-grade alloy steel. The tensile, flexural and compressive strengths of some epoxy FRP can reach more than 400Mpa.
In many cases, underground fiberglass tanks offer significant advantages over above-ground tanks. Here are some benefits that may be relevant to your specific situation:
Cost-Effective Solution:
Underground tanks are generally more cost-effective than above-ground tanks as they require less land and fewer support structures.
Aesthetic Appeal:
These tanks are visually appealing as they are hidden from sight, contributing to a more aesthetically pleasing environment.
Durability in Extreme Conditions:
Underground fiberglass tanks are highly durable and can withstand even the harshest weather conditions.
Ease of Maintenance:
With accessible inspection ports, these tanks are easy to maintain and inspect regularly.
Protection Against Contamination:
Underground tanks help protect stored water from contamination since they are less likely to be tampered with by vandals or animals.
If you need to store a large volume of water, underground water tanks may be the perfect solution for your industrial or commercial application. The benefits include cost-effectiveness, aesthetic appeal, and protection against water contamination. Contact us now to learn more about our underground water tanks and how they can benefit you!
From rainwater harvesting, firefighting, wastewater storage, water storage, agriculture, food processing, chemical industries, petroleum, to natural gas, fiberglass tanks are highly suitable for various storage purposes. The leak-proof performance is crucial for these applications, and fiberglass tanks have a long-standing history of providing waterproof design solutions. The lightweight nature of fiberglass minimizes installation steps and costs, particularly beneficial for challenging locations. Many fiberglass tanks are also designed for dual purposes, with common examples being firefighting backup and potable water storage.
When ground space is limited or when you want to preserve the landscape, underground fiberglass tanks are an ideal choice. The fiberglass tank solutions not only save space but also provide robust durability.
These tanks can be used for various applications, including:
Drinking water
Wastewater
Firefighting
Solvents
