The methods may be different. It all depends on the size, design and material from which water storage tanks are made. If the dimensions allow, then, if possible, it is better to place the tanks in a area where the air temperature does not drop below 0°C. If this is not possible, the tanks can be used outdoors, taking all measures to ensure that the water in them does not freeze: Insulate the tank with a layer of thermal insulation. Mineral wool or liquid two-component polyurethane foam can be used to insulate cylindrical metal tanks. Polyurethane foam spraying on...

The history of the appearance of fire tanks The development of the oil production industry in city of Baku in the 17th century required the availability of a huge number of oil storage tanks. At first, the issue was solved with the help of earthen tanks – an ordinary pit in dense clay soil. And only at the end of the 19th century, the engineer Shukhov designed the first steel vertical cylindrical tank. It was made of sheets of steel that were riveted together Today, the scope of use of iron tanks has significantly expanded. One of the areas is the storage of fire water...

The problems with water supply of distant human settlements, food and confectionery shops, country villages and other facilities, where there is a need, are solved by creating reserves of quality drinking water in special tanks. But how to store drinking water in winter? It all depends on the location of the tank: indoors or outdoors. Polypropylene or polyethylene water storage tanks are often used to store drinking water indoors. Plastic tanks are made of environmentally friendly polyethylene or polypropylene sheets used in the food industry. The material is resistant to ultraviolet...

Modular tanks are fast-assembled process reservoirs used mainly for water storage. The unique design of tanks allows you to store grain and other bulk substances in large quantities, which is limited by the volume of tanks. Typical modular tanks for grain storage consist of a galvanized framework that allows to protect a design of tanks against corrosion and influence of other aggressive factors. Galvanized corrugated metal sheets are mounted on the frame, which are 200-300% stronger than smooth steel sheets. The entire structure of the tank is mounted on a conventional strip foundation...

With the onset of cold weather, the number of fires in apartments, private homes and small businesses increases significantly. People try to heat their homes or workplaces with various electrical and heat generating devices that can cause fires if used incorrectly or broken. Most often, to save money, people use homemade heaters or open flame sources, which are often the cause of fires in buildings and structures. Let’s highlight the main causes of fires in the autumn-winter season, according to statistics from the Ministry of Emergencies: Faulty electrical wiring and the use of...

Up to 40% of Ukrainians experience problems with water supply, which is due to the poor condition of utilities and water supply pipelines. Strategic water reserves are needed not only to ensure the drinking regime, but also to solve various problems: firefighting, watering land, cattle farming, organizing production and technological processes and much more. Morally obsolete metal welded tanks for watering, which were used earlier, quickly rust and break down under the influence of corrosion processes. They have been replaced by practical and durable modular tanks with a service life of...

Structure of modular tank A modular tank is a prefabricated tank that consists of mandatory elements, each of which performs its functions. The modular tank includes: roof, hatch, galvanized truss, tank frame, piping, ladder and polymer insert. The roof of the tank, depending on the purpose is made of metal or plastic. When using the tank during the year, a metal roof is installed, which can withstand snow loads, low temperatures and is not destroyed by its abrupt change. The roof of the tanks in the room is made of plastic. Also modular tanks, if necessary, are installed without a roof,...

The quality of drinking water directly affects the health and functionality of the human body. Apparently, each of us would like to believe in the fact that the water from the central pipeline is safe for people and does not require constant monitoring by the user. In fact, this is far from the case. According to experts, about 80% of water supplied to the consumer centrally does not meet sanitary standards. Things are not better with wells in villages and human settlements: the lion’s share of groundwater is polluted by human waste, so you do not have to think about the quality of...

Summer is not only a hot holiday season, but also a time of serious challenges for farmers and the entire agricultural sector of the economy. According to the emergency service, in 2018, more than 78,000 fires were registered in Ukraine. The number of fires in the forest and on farmland has also increased compared to the same period last year. Due to the lack of primary fire extinguishing means and the lack of strategic water reserves, farm and forest lands have suffered significant material losses in the form of unharvested crops of grain, burned plantations and forests. To...

For the organization of a fire-prevention mode at the enterprises, plants and factories, farms, gas stations, bases of oil products and public places modular tanks are the actual decision. They will help to handle with large fires, where the primary means of firefighting are already powerless, due to the possibility of creating large reserves of fire water. Underground tanks can be made in different ways using different building materials, which determines the cost and timing of the project. To correctly determine the choice of tank, consider the main types of underground tanks and their...

More recently, a new type of tanks has appeared on the Ukrainian market, which fully satisfies all needs – modular tanks. They are prefabricated tanks with a steel frame and a plastic membrane. The volume of liquid can be from several tens to several thousand cubic meters. The main structural element is 2 mm thick corrugated steel sheet. Its rigidity allows you to replace a flat steel sheet with a thickness of 4 to 5 mm. Inside the frame is placed a film of polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride, which has improved characteristics. The parts of the structure have a minimum weight, can be...

Water is the most valuable resource. For large-scale water storage, stationary reinforced concrete and welded steel tanks were previously used, which did not provide long-term storage of liquids, were expensive to manufacture and lasted no more than 10-15 years. Plastic tanks have also been used for water storage recently, but their small capacity is not able to provide large reserves of fresh water on an industrial scale. But that all changed when modular MakBox tanks appeared on the market – tanks made by the technology of prefabricated structures. The standard modular tank for...
