What type of storage tanks does the company use for sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and sodium hydroxide?
2# Forum User: For industrial sulfuric acid, carbon steel is used; for hydrochloric acid, PVC-covered fiberglass is employed; for liquid sodium hydroxide, carbon steel is suitable while fiberglass made of glass fiber cloth is not appropriate
For 98% acid, carbon steel is suitable; for dilute sulfuric acid, special fiberglass is recommended. For hydrochloric acid, fiberglass is generally used, though polypropylene (with attention to anti-aging measures) or polyvinyl chloride (at temperatures below 60 degrees, used indoors) can also be used. For sodium hydroxide, carbon steel is sufficient, or fiberglass can be used as well (with a lining method different from that of ordinary fiberglass). I hope this is helpful to you; if it’s not enough, feel free to leave me a message
Concentrated sulfuric acid and alkaline solutions are stored in carbon steel tanks, while hydrochloric acid is stored in tanks lined with rubber
For industrial sulfuric acid, iron tanks are sufficient; for hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide, fiberglass-reinforced plastic is used
For concentrated sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide, carbon steel is used; for hydrochloric acid, fiberglass is more commonly used nowadays, though carbon steel with resin is also employed.
For fuming sulfuric acid, iron tanks can be used; for 98% sulfuric acid, carbon steel is suitable, while for dilute sulfuric acid, special fiberglass materials are appropriate. For hydrochloric acid, fiberglass is generally used, but polypropylene (with attention to preventing aging) or polyvinyl chloride (when the temperature is below 60 degrees and it is stored indoors) can also be used. For sodium hydroxide, carbon steel is sufficient, or fiberglass can also be used (with a lining method different from that of ordinary fiberglass)
Ordinary carbon steel is used for concentrated sulfuric acid, while PVC is used for hydrochloric acid.
