FBE Coated Tank for a Physical Wastewater Treatment Plant: A
strong, foundational vessel for solid-liquid separation and
clarification.
A Physical Wastewater Treatment Plant primarily utilizes mechanical and physical processes, such as
sedimentation, filtration, and clarification, to achieve solid-liquid separation. These operations require a containment vessel that is a strong, foundational vessel—one that can withstand heavy loads from sludge and grit, resist
the abrasive wear of solids, and provide a stable structure for
essential clarification equipment. The Fusion Bonded Epoxy 
Coated Tank is engineered for this demanding mechanical role, providing a strong, foundational vessel for solid-liquid separation and
clarification.
The Structural Demands of Physical Treatment
Containment infrastructure for a Physical Wastewater Treatment Plant faces continuous structural and abrasive challenges:
Heavy Static Load 
: Clarifiers and settling tanks hold immense volumes of water mixed
with high concentrations of suspended solids and sludge. The vessel
must be a structurally strong, foundational vessel capable of managing massive, continuous hydrostatic pressure and
the weight of concentrated settled solids.
Abrasive Wear: The constant movement of grit, sludge, and heavy particles against
the tank walls causes significant abrasive wear. The lining must be
durable and hard to resist this physical erosion over the long term.
Support for Mechanical Equipment: These plants rely on large mechanical equipment 
for solid-liquid separation. The tank structure must be robust enough to support these
internal mechanisms without structural deflection.
Corrosion Resistance in Harsh Environments: Although primarily physical, these processes occur in chemically
aggressive environments 
in primary clarifiers$. The vessel must maintain its structural
integrity by being chemically resilient.
A reliable physical treatment system needs a strong, foundational vessel for solid-liquid separation and
clarification that ensures stability and resists physical wear.
The FBE Solution: Strength and Durability for Clarification
Center Enamel’s Fusion Bonded Epoxy Bolted Steel Tanks are
explicitly designed to serve as high-performance components in Physical Wastewater Treatment Plants:
Superior Structural Strength 
: Constructed from high-tensile, factory-engineered steel, 
tanks offer certified structural strength. This makes them a strong, foundational vessel capable of safely managing the high hydrostatic loads and the
weight of accumulated sludge and grit.
Durable and Abrasion-Resistant Coating: The smooth, hard 
lining resists the physical abrasion caused by the continuous
movement of solids and sludge, ensuring the long-term integrity of
the internal surface.
High-Integrity Foundation: The bolted steel design provides a stable and precise cylindrical
structure, which is foundational for the accurate installation and efficient operation of internal clarification mechanisms like weirs and scrapers.
Chemical Resistance for Longevity: The 
coating resists the corrosive elements present in raw sewage or
industrial influent 
, organic acids$, preventing degradation and reinforcing the tank’s
nature as a durable, strong vessel.
Rapid Deployment and Cost-Effectiveness: The modular design allows for faster construction compared to
poured concrete, providing a cost-effective solution for establishing or expanding solid-liquid separation capacity with minimal disruption.
