FBE Coated Tank for a Drinking Water Plant: Offers a high-quality,
hygienic, and long-lasting storage solution for potable water.
A Drinking Water Plant 
requires storage solutions of the highest possible standard. The
containment vessel must be absolutely reliable, ensuring water
purity and offering a high-quality, hygienic, and long-lasting storage solution that complies with stringent public health and safety regulations.
The integrity of the water supply is paramount, demanding a
non-toxic, structurally secure, and corrosion-resistant asset. The Fusion Bonded Epoxy 
Coated Tank is engineered with these critical factors in mind, providing a
definitive high-quality, hygienic, and long-lasting storage solution for
potable water.
The Uncompromising Requirements for Potable Water Storage
Containment vessels for a Drinking Water Plant are subject to unique and uncompromising requirements:
Hygiene and Purity 
: The internal surface must be non-porous and chemically inert,
preventing the proliferation of bacteria, algae, or biofilm. It
must ensure that the stored potable water remains free from contaminants and is a truly hygienic solution for human consumption.
Regulatory Compliance and Certification 
: Any tank used for drinking water must meet strict international standards 
for material safety. This requires a high-quality coating that has been independently certified for use in contact
with potable water.
Corrosion Resistance 
: Potable water, particularly if treated with chlorine or other
disinfectants, can be corrosive over time. The tank must be a long-lasting storage solution with a permanent, robust coating that prevents internal rusting or
degradation of the steel shell.
Structural Integrity and Security: As a vital public utility, the tank must be structurally
unyielding, providing long-lasting storage security against external threats, seismic activity, and
continuous hydrostatic pressure from massive water volumes.
The infrastructure for a Drinking Water Plant must be a high-quality, hygienic, and long-lasting storage solution for
potable water.
The FBE Solution: Purity and Longevity for Potable Water
Center Enamel’s Fusion Bonded Epoxy Bolted Steel Tanks are
explicitly designed to meet the rigorous demands of drinking water storage:
Certified, High-Quality Coating: The 
coating is applied in a factory-controlled environment, ensuring
uniform thickness and flawless adhesion. Crucially, this coating is
formulated to meet international standards for contact with potable water, providing a certified high-quality containment solution.
Hygienic and Inert Surface: The dense, non-porous 
finish is an hygienic solution that resists the growth of mold and mildew and prevents the
adhesion of biological films. Its inert nature ensures that no
foreign substances or metal ions leach into the potable water supply, safeguarding public health.
Permanent Corrosion Protection 
: The molecularly bonded 
provides a permanent, impenetrable barrier against corrosion from
water and disinfectants. This ensures the asset remains
structurally sound and provides long-lasting storage security for decades, minimizing the need for costly internal
maintenance.
Superior Structural Strength and Leak Prevention: Constructed from high-tensile, factory-engineered steel, 
tanks offer certified strength for large-volume storage. The
precision-engineered bolted assembly and specialized sealants
ensure a liquid-tight vessel, critical for the security of the potable water supply.
Cost-Effective and Rapid Deployment: The modular design allows for rapid installation, significantly
reducing construction time and site disruption compared to
cast-in-place concrete tanks. This makes the 
tank a high-quality yet cost-effective choice for expanding or upgrading drinking water storage capacity.
The combination of certified materials, structural integrity, and
superior corrosion resistance makes the FBE Coated Tank the premier choice for long-lasting storage in any Drinking Water Plant.
FBE Tank Applications in a Drinking Water Plant
The versatility and quality of FBE Coated Tanks make them suitable for several critical functions within the water
supply chain:
Finished Water Reservoirs: Providing the final, secure containment for treated potable water before distribution, ensuring quality is maintained.
Backwash Water Tanks: Holding filtered water for cleaning filtration units, requiring a
tank that can handle intermittent flow and remain structurally
stable.
Clearwells: Used for contact time with disinfection chemicals, requiring a
coating with superior resistance to corrosive agents like chlorine
and chloramines.
Raw Water Storage: Used for buffering raw water supply before treatment, demanding a long-lasting storage solution capable of handling large volumes and fluctuating levels.
The FBE Coated Tank ensures that every stage of the drinking water process is underpinned by a high-quality, hygienic containment solution.

Longevity and Maintenance for Public Health
The commitment to public health requires long-lasting storage assets that minimize maintenance. The FBE Coated Tank significantly outperforms traditional options:
Reduced Lifecycle Cost: The exceptional durability of the 
coating eliminates the frequent and costly relining or internal
maintenance required by concrete or conventional painted steel
tanks. This translates to lower lifecycle costs for the Drinking Water Plant.
Minimal Service Interruption: Since maintenance is drastically reduced, the tanks provide
continuous service, which is vital for maintaining a consistent and
secure supply of potable water to the community.
Sustainable Choice: The factory-applied coating and modular steel construction offer a
highly sustainable and energy-efficient solution compared to
energy-intensive, long-curing concrete construction, reinforcing
the high-quality nature of the entire asset.
The FBE Coated Tank represents an investment in the long-lasting storage and purity of a community's most essential resource.
