A newcomer in the chemical industry is asking the experts: what is the material used for ethanol storage tanks?

Stainless steel; 304 is sufficient. Polyurethane is generally used for insulation on the outside

Why choose 304 material? Can’t it be made of carbon steel? Ethanol isn’t corrosive, right? This post was last edited by zhchty on 2009-4-28 16:22.]

For low-temperature cryogenic fluids, 304 stainless steel is used for ethanol, but in our facility, carbon steel is employed for ethanol at -20 degrees.

Our unit uses 304 stainless steel, with polyurethane for insulation
