Glass Fused to Steel Tanks for Industrial Wastewater Treatment Projects: Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Solutions

Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel) is proud to be a global leader in providing high-quality storage solutions for a variety of industries. As a key player in the tank manufacturing industry, we specialize in producing Glass Fused to Steel (GFS) tanks that offer the perfect solution for industrial wastewater treatment projects. These tanks are specifically designed to meet the stringent demands of modern wastewater treatment facilities, offering superior durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance.

What Are Glass Fused to Steel Tanks?

Glass Fused to Steel (GFS) tanks are constructed by bonding a layer of glass enamel to steel panels under high heat. This fusion creates a durable, corrosion-resistant surface that combines the best qualities of both materials: the strength of steel and the protective qualities of glass. This combination makes them ideal for storing industrial wastewater and other aggressive liquids in environments where traditional tank materials might fail.

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 Glass Fused to Steel Tanks for Industrial Wastewater Treatment?

Industrial wastewater treatment processes generate a wide variety of highly corrosive liquids. Choosing the right tank material is crucial to maintaining the integrity of the storage system and ensuring the safety of operations. Glass Fused to Steel tanks offer several significant advantages over traditional materials such as concrete or carbon steel, including:

1. Superior Corrosion Resistance

One of the primary reasons Glass Fused to Steel tanks are ideal for industrial wastewater storage is their exceptional corrosion resistance. The glass coating provides a highly resistant barrier to acids, alkalis, and other corrosive chemicals commonly found in industrial wastewater. This ensures that the tanks will last for decades without the need for frequent repairs or replacements, even in harsh environments.

Long-lasting protection: The glass coating creates a seamless, non-porous surface that prevents rust and corrosion, making it an excellent choice for long-term industrial wastewater storage.

Chemical resistance: GFS tanks are highly resistant to chemicals typically found in wastewater from manufacturing, chemical processing, mining, and other industries.

2. Excellent Durability for Long-Term Performance

GFS tanks are built to endure the challenges of industrial wastewater treatment projects. Their durability makes them well-suited to withstand the pressures and demands of industrial environments, providing a reliable storage solution for many years.

Resistant to wear and tear: The glass enamel coating provides an extra layer of protection against abrasion and damage caused by harsh operating conditions, ensuring that the tank maintains its structural integrity throughout its lifespan.

Low maintenance: Unlike traditional steel tanks, which require frequent maintenance to address corrosion and rust, Glass Fused to Steel tanks require minimal maintenance, lowering the overall cost of ownership.

3. Compliance with Industry Standards

At Center Enamel, we understand the importance of adhering to international standards for industrial wastewater storage. Our Glass Fused to Steel tanks are designed and manufactured to meet or exceed global quality standards, ensuring reliability and safety for industrial wastewater treatment projects.

AWWA D103-09: Our GFS tanks meet the American Water Works Association (AWWA) D103-09 standard for Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks, ensuring the highest quality in terms of design, construction, and performance.

ISO 28765: Compliance with ISO 28765 ensures that our tanks are suitable for wastewater treatment and bio-energy applications, providing both environmental and operational compliance.

NSF 61 Certification: For projects that involve potable water or other sensitive liquids, our GFS tanks are also NSF 61 certified, ensuring the tanks meet the highest standards for drinking water safety.

4. Customizable Sizes and Configurations

Every wastewater treatment facility has unique storage requirements based on the specific type of wastewater it handles, as well as the site conditions and project scale. Center Enamel offers fully customizable Glass Fused to Steel tanks designed to meet the specific needs of your industrial wastewater treatment project.

Modular design: Our tanks come with modular panels, which allows them to be configured in virtually any size or shape, depending on the requirements of your project. This modular design also offers flexibility in expanding the system when more storage capacity is needed.

Tailored features: We provide customizable tank colors, roof options, and accessories to meet your project's aesthetic, functional, and operational needs.

5. Earthquake and Seismic Resistance

Industrial wastewater treatment facilities often operate in regions with seismic activity, and Glass Fused to Steel tanks provide a reliable solution for these conditions. Our tanks are designed with seismic resistance in mind, ensuring the tank can withstand earthquake and other extreme forces.

Shock and vibration resistance: The modular bolted design of the tank system allows for flexibility and adaptability to seismic movement, providing added security in regions prone to earthquakes.

6. Cost-Effectiveness

The upfront cost of Glass Fused to Steel tanks is an important consideration in any industrial wastewater treatment project. However, the long-term cost-effectiveness of these tanks is one of their key advantages.

Lower maintenance costs: The corrosion-resistant glass coating reduces the need for repairs and maintenance, which translates to lower lifetime costs compared to traditional materials like concrete or carbon steel.

Energy efficiency: The sealed system of GFS tanks also helps optimize the energy efficiency of wastewater treatment facilities, reducing overall operating costs.
