What Are Raw Material Storage Tanks, Where Are They Used?

Raw material storage tanks are equipment that ensure the safe storage of liquid, granular, or powder form raw materials in production facilities. They are used in various industries such as chemical, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, paint, and petrochemical. The purpose of using these tanks is to protect raw materials from external factors and store them at temperatures and conditions suitable for the production process. These systems, meeting the need for industrial-scale storage, ensure the continuity of production.

How Do Raw Material Storage Tanks Contribute to the Production Process?

Continuity and efficiency in production facilities are directly related to uninterrupted access to raw materials. Thanks to storage tanks, raw materials are available whenever needed. This not only saves time but also reduces the workload of operators. Tanks that operate integrated with automatic filling systems can be directly connected to the production line. Thus, labor requirements decrease, and the margin of error is minimized. Tanks also offer a cost advantage by reducing waste rates.

What Materials Are Preferred in Raw Material Storage Tanks?

The body structure is selected according to the material to be stored inside the tank. While stainless steel or specially coated steel tanks are preferred for acidic or basic chemicals, hygienic stainless AISI 304 or 316 steel is used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. High-strength plastic tanks are suitable for low-risk chemicals and liquids. The inner surface coating of tanks should be protective against reactive materials.
