Description

Bolted tanks are prefabricated steel storage systems designed for on-site assembly, offering a reliable and cost-effective solution for liquid and sludge storage across municipal, industrial, and agricultural applications. Compared with traditional welded tanks, bolted tank systems provide superior flexibility, shorter installation time, and easier future expansion.

Our bolted tanks are engineered for long-term service under demanding operating conditions and can be supplied with different coating systems, structural configurations, and accessories to meet project-specific requirements.

What Are Bolted Tanks?

Bolted tanks are modular storage tanks manufactured from factory-formed steel panels. The panels are transported to site and assembled using high-strength bolts and sealing systems. This construction method eliminates the need for on-site welding and allows installation in locations with limited access, strict safety requirements, or tight construction schedules.

Bolted tank systems are widely used for storing water, wastewater, sludge, chemicals, and other industrial liquids.

Key Advantages of Bolted Tank Systems

Modular Design and Flexible Capacity

Bolted tanks are built using standardized panels, allowing tank diameter and height to be adjusted according to required storage volume. The modular structure also enables future capacity expansion without replacing the entire tank.

Fast On-Site Installation

Factory prefabrication ensures consistent quality and minimizes on-site work. Bolted assembly significantly reduces installation time compared to welded tanks, helping projects meet tight schedules.

Proven Structural Reliability

Bolted tanks are designed in accordance with international engineering standards. Structural calculations consider wind load, seismic conditions, snow load, and hydrostatic pressure to ensure long-term operational safety.

Adaptable to Multiple Coating Systems

Depending on the stored medium and environmental conditions, bolted tanks can be supplied with different corrosion protection systems, such as glass-fused-to-steel, epoxy coatings, or stainless steel panels.

Easy Transportation and Maintenance

Disassembled panels reduce transportation costs and simplify logistics. Individual panels can be replaced during maintenance, extending the service life of the tank system.

Typical Applications

Bolted tanks are suitable for a wide range of storage applications, including:

• Municipal water and wastewater treatment facilities
• Industrial wastewater and process water storage
• Sludge thickening and storage systems
• Agricultural and irrigation water storage
• Chemical and industrial liquid storage
• Biogas and anaerobic digestion projects

Specific tank materials and configurations can be selected based on the application environment.

Available Configurations

To meet different project requirements, bolted tanks can be supplied with multiple configuration options:

• Tank Materials: glass-fused-to-steel, epoxy-coated carbon steel, stainless steel
• Tank Capacity: from small modular tanks to large-capacity storage systems
• Roof Options: aluminum dome roof, flat roof, membrane roof
• Accessories: manholes, nozzles, mixers, ladders, platforms, level indicators

Each configuration is engineered to integrate seamlessly into the overall storage system.
