Minimal Maintenance Stainless Biogas Storage Tanks with superior corrosion resistance
Biogas storge tank is also called biogas holder and is a kind of Anaerobic digestion tanks which are often cone shaped and supported at the centre with a single pole. Commercial biogas reactor tanks are usually made from one of the following materials :
- Mild steel
- Concrete – Reinforced concrete and pre-cast (either pre- stressed or post - stressed)
- Stainless steel.
- LIPP
- Glass fused to steel : also called enamel coating steel, glass lined steel.
Among above materials , the glass fused to steel is the perfect material for the biogas holder tank as comparison results as below
