Glass Fused To Steel Water Tanks Easy Installation GFS Bolted Tanks Modular Construction

Advantages

Glass Fused Bolted Steel Tank Easy Installation and Expansion for Your Convenience offers a range of advantages that make them an excellent choice for various industrial applications:

1. Superior Corrosion Resistance

• The enamel-coated steel plates undergo specialized processing, featuring multiple layers of enamel coating on both inner and outer surfaces. With a coating thickness reaching up to 300μm, these tanks effectively prevent corrosion and exhibit resistance to strong acids, strong alkalis, and high temperatures. They can withstand the corrosive effects of wastewater, concentrated saltwater, seawater, high-sulfur crude oil, salt spray, and a variety of organic and inorganic compounds.
• The steel plates are subjected to heat polymerization, creating a robust bond between the enamel layer and the steel substrate. This ensures the enamel coating remains intact, extending the service life to over 30 years and significantly reducing the frequency of equipment replacement due to corrosion.

2. Short Installation Period

• GFS steel plates are manufactured in a controlled factory environment using standardized production methods, ensuring high quality and dimensional accuracy. Unaffected by natural factors such as weather, they can be transported to the construction site and assembled according to design specifications without complex on-site welding processes, thereby greatly reducing installation time.
• For instance, the on-site construction period for a 3000 cubic meter GFS anaerobic tank is only 15 days, compared to approximately 3-4 months for a similarly sized welded steel tank.

3. Low Maintenance Costs

• The superior anti-corrosion properties of enamel-coated steel plates mean that GFS bolted tanks require minimal maintenance during operation. Routine inspections and replacements of vulnerable components such as sealants and self-locking bolts are sufficient, reducing overall maintenance workload and costs.
• In the event of issues like leakage, bolt slippage, gasket failure, or accessory problems, only the affected parts need to be disassembled and replaced, eliminating the need for cutting, welding, or extensive concrete repairs.

4. Expandability and Relocatability

• The tank body is constructed from standard enamel-coated steel plates connected by bolts, offering flexibility and ease of disassembly. This allows for easy expansion or relocation of the tank to meet changing production or usage requirements without significant disruption.

5. Aesthetically Pleasing Appearance

• The enamel surface is smooth and lustrous, resembling porcelain. The standard color is green, which is bright and attractive, making it suitable for modern industrial settings. Custom colors can also be provided to harmonize with the surrounding environment, enhancing the visual appeal of the facility.

6. Stable and Reliable Quality

• Enamel-coated steel plates are fully processed in the factory under strict quality control measures. They undergo rigorous inspections before leaving the factory, ensuring consistent and reliable quality while avoiding potential instability associated with on-site construction.

7. Cost-Effective

• The high strength and superior anti-corrosion performance of enamel-coated steel plates reduce material costs, as additional anti-corrosion coatings and inner lining materials are unnecessary. Combined with rapid and simple installation, this results in significant labor cost savings, providing a notable price advantage, especially for tanks exceeding 5 meters in height and large capacities.

8. Strong Adaptability

• These tanks can be customized to fit specific engineering site conditions, with flexible adjustments to height and width to meet diverse project requirements. They find wide application in industries such as food-grade drinking water storage, sewage treatment, biogas engineering, dry bulk material storage, and petrochemicals, for the sealed storage of gases, liquids, and solids.

9. Excellent Sealing Performance

• Special silicone sealant is embedded between overlapping plates, forming a highly elastic, temperature-resistant, and weather-resistant seal upon curing. This prevents the leakage of waste gas or wastewater, minimizing environmental pollution.

10. Good Hygiene Performance

• The enamel inner lining material is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, meeting stringent hygiene standards. It does not contaminate stored substances, making it ideal for applications with high hygiene requirements, such as food and drinking water storage.
