Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tank: A Highly Corrosive-Resistant and Easy-to-Install Bolted Tank

At Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel), we pride ourselves on delivering innovative storage tank solutions that meet the most demanding requirements across various industries. Our Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks represent a major breakthrough in corrosion resistance, structural strength, and easy installation, making them the ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

What is Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) Technology?

Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) technology combines the strength of steel with the durability and corrosion-resistance properties of glass. In this innovative process, a layer of glass enamel is fused onto the surface of steel through a high-temperature firing process. This unique combination creates a tank that offers superior protection against corrosion, rust, and wear, even in the harshest environments.

GFS tanks offer an exceptional balance between the strength of steel and the non-reactive nature of glass, making them a perfect solution for industries that deal with corrosive materials, wastewater treatment, biogas storage, and water storage applications.

As a leading storage tank manufacturer worldwide. Center Enamel can provide Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks, fusion bonded epoxy tanks, stainless steel tanks, galvanized steel tanks and aluminum geodesic dome roofs, Wastewater and Biogas Project Equipments for global customers.

Why Choose Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks?

Our Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are specifically designed to meet the most stringent performance standards while delivering a cost-effective, low-maintenance, and long-lasting solution for liquid storage. Here are the key benefits that make these tanks stand out in the marketplace:

1. Exceptional Corrosion Resistance

One of the key features that set Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks apart is their outstanding corrosion resistance. The glass enamel coating provides an impenetrable barrier that prevents the steel from coming into contact with water, chemicals, or other corrosive elements, ensuring that the tank's integrity remains intact for many years. This makes GFS tanks perfect for storing potable water, wastewater, bioenergy, chemicals, and other corrosive substances.

The non-porous surface of the glass also prevents the growth of bacteria and algae, making the tanks ideal for biogas production or wastewater treatment where cleanliness and hygiene are essential.

2. Durable and Long-Lasting Performance

GFS tanks are designed for long-term use. The glass coating protects the steel from the wear and tear that can come with exposure to extreme weather and harsh environmental conditions. With a service life that can exceed 30 years, these tanks offer maximum durability, meaning less frequent maintenance and replacements, resulting in lower operational costs over time.

3. Easy and Quick Installation

One of the key advantages of Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks is their bolted design. Unlike traditional welded tanks, these tanks are constructed using pre-engineered, bolted panels, making them incredibly quick and easy to install. The modular design allows for easy transport and assembly at the installation site, significantly reducing the construction time and the need for specialized equipment.

The ease of installation also reduces the labor costs associated with building the tank, and the bolted construction allows for future expansions or modifications, making these tanks an ideal solution for projects with changing requirements.

4. Cost-Effective Solution

GFS tanks are not only cost-effective in terms of installation but also maintenance. Thanks to the corrosion-resistant properties of the glass enamel coating, maintenance costs are greatly reduced compared to traditional steel tanks. This makes them an ideal choice for businesses and municipalities looking to reduce long-term operational costs while maintaining a high level of performance.

5. Sustainability and Environmental Friendliness

The Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are designed with sustainability in mind. The non-toxic glass used in the coating is environmentally friendly, and the tanks themselves can be recycled at the end of their life cycle. Additionally, GFS tanks are an excellent choice for biogas storage, allowing for efficient energy recovery from wastewater treatment or organic waste processes.

6. Versatility for Various Applications

Whether you're storing potable water, industrial effluents, biogas, or wastewater, Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are designed to handle a variety of materials and applications. Some of the common uses include:

Drinking Water Storage: Ideal for municipal water systems due to their corrosion resistance and NSF/ANSI 61 certifications for potable water.

Wastewater Treatment: Perfect for sewage and industrial wastewater applications where durability and long service life are crucial.

Biogas Storage: Used in anaerobic digestion systems to store biogas generated from organic waste treatment processes.

Chemical Storage: Safely store chemicals, fertilizers, and other corrosive materials.

Agricultural Use: Efficient storage for irrigation and livestock water in farms and agricultural facilities.
