From Waste to Resource: Center Enamel's Bolted Steel Tanks for
Advanced Effluent Treatment
In the modern world, the responsible management of water resources
is a global imperative. Effluent, or wastewater, from industrial
processes and municipal operations is a challenging byproduct that
must be treated effectively before it can be safely discharged back
into the environment or reused. Regulatory compliance is stringent,
public demand for environmental protection is high, and the
financial and reputational costs of a failed treatment system are
immense. As a result, the vessels used for effluent treatment are

The Indispensable Role of Effluent Treatment Tanks
The effluent treatment process is a sophisticated chain of
physical, chemical, and biological stages, and tanks are a critical
link at nearly every step. A compromise in the integrity of a tank
at any stage can jeopardize the entire process, leading to
regulatory fines, operational downtime, and environmental damage.
The most common applications for our bolted steel tanks in effluent
treatment include:
Equalization and Regulation Tanks: Effluent from an industrial
plant or a city's collection system can have highly variable flow
rates and pollutant concentrations. A bolted equalization tank
absorbs these hydraulic and chemical shocks, storing the liquid
during a surge and releasing it at a steady, manageable rate. This
ensures that downstream treatment processes operate at their
optimal efficiency, preventing them from being overwhelmed.
Aeration Basins: In secondary treatment, microorganisms are used to
consume organic matter. This process requires constant aeration to
provide the microorganisms with oxygen. Our bolted steel tanks can
be used as aeration basins, with a sealed, robust structure that is
easily fitted with air diffusers and mixers to facilitate the
biological treatment process.
Clarifiers and Sedimentation Tanks: After biological treatment, the
solid particles (sludge) must be separated from the treated water.
Bolted steel tanks can be customized with conical bottoms and
internal baffles to serve as clarifiers, promoting the settling of
solids and ensuring the treated water is ready for the next stage.
Sludge Holding and Digester Tanks: The final byproduct of most
treatment processes is sludge, which must be stored and often
undergoes further treatment, such as anaerobic digestion. Our
bolted steel tanks provide a durable, airtight vessel for storing
this corrosive byproduct, and can be designed for use as digester
tanks to manage biogas and odor.
In each of these applications, the tank is not a passive container.
It is an active process vessel, and its material and design
directly impact the efficiency, safety, and longevity of the entire
system.
The Bolted Steel Advantage: A Modern Engineering Solution
Traditional effluent treatment tanks, often built from concrete or
field-welded steel, are a rigid and often flawed solution. They are
time-consuming to construct, lack quality consistency, and are
difficult to modify. Center Enamel's bolted steel tanks, by
contrast, offer a superior, precision-engineered alternative.
Rapid and Cost-Effective Installation: Our tanks are
precision-engineered and fabricated in our state-of-the-art
facility. The modular panels are shipped to the site ready for
assembly and are bolted together using a crane or jack-up system.
This process is significantly faster than welding or pouring
concrete, dramatically reducing project timelines and minimizing
on-site labor and safety risks. For a municipal project, this means
a faster path to compliance; for an industrial client, it means
faster return on investment.
Unparalleled Quality Control: The integrity of a tank in a
corrosive environment is paramount. Every panel of a Center Enamel
tank is manufactured in our factory under strict quality control
protocols. This guarantees a uniform, defect-free, and perfectly
coated product, a level of consistency that cannot be achieved with
field-fabricated structures, which are susceptible to human error
and environmental variables like temperature and humidity.
Flexibility and Scalability: The bolted design provides incredible
flexibility. Tanks can be easily configured to a wide range of
sizes and capacities. They can also be expanded by adding more
rings of panels. This allows a facility to start with the capacity
they need and easily scale up as their operational demands grow,
offering a future-proof investment that avoids the rigidity of
traditional construction.
Adherence to Global Standards: We design and manufacture our tanks
in strict accordance with the most rigorous international
standards, including AWWA D103-09 and ISO 9001. Our commitment to
these benchmarks guarantees that our products meet or exceed the
performance and safety requirements of demanding industries.
Center Enamel's Specialized Technologies for Effluent Treatment
Center Enamel offers specialized materials that are ideal for the
highly varied and often corrosive contents of effluent treatment
tanks. Each material is designed to excel in specific conditions,
providing a tailored solution for every stage of the process.
1. Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) Tanks: The Uncompromising Standard
Our GFS tanks are the premium choice for the most demanding
effluent treatment applications, offering unrivaled resilience and
long-term value. This technology involves fusing a molten glass
coating to the surface of steel panels at temperatures exceeding
820°C. The result is a composite material that combines the
strength of steel with the exceptional corrosion, abrasion, and
chemical resistance of glass.
Ultimate Corrosion and Abrasion Resistance: The glass lining is
completely impervious to a wide range of corrosive agents,
including acids, alkalis, and biological byproducts often found in
effluent. Its ultra-hard surface also resists abrasion from
suspended solids, ensuring the tank's structural integrity for a
service life of over 30 years with minimal maintenance.
Hygienic and Easy to Maintain: The ultra-smooth, non-porous surface
of a GFS tank actively resists the adhesion of biofilms and other
organic matter. This not only maintains the integrity of the
treatment process but also simplifies the cleaning process and
reduces the need for frequent maintenance, minimizing downtime.
Unrivaled Longevity: With a design life exceeding 30 years, GFS
tanks offer the highest long-term value and the lowest total cost
of ownership, making them a wise investment for municipal and
industrial infrastructure.
2. Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) Coated Steel Tanks: The Durable and
Economical Workhorse
Our FBE tanks provide a highly effective and cost-effective
solution for a wide range of effluent treatment applications. The
coating is a thermoset polymer powder that is electrostatically
applied and then fused to the steel, creating a thick, uniform, and
durable barrier.
Robust Corrosion Protection: The FBE coating provides a tough,
uniform barrier against the corrosive effects of many industrial
and municipal wastewaters, ensuring the tank's longevity and
reliability.
Exceptional Value: FBE tanks offer a perfect balance of performance
and affordability, making them an excellent choice for projects
with budget considerations that still require a high level of
durability and protection.
Proven Durability: This technology has been a reliable choice for
bulk liquid storage for decades, with a proven track record of
withstanding harsh industrial environments.
3. Stainless Steel Tanks: The Premium, Hygienic Choice
For applications where the highest level of hygiene is
required—such as in food processing, beverage production, or
pharmaceutical manufacturing—our bolted stainless steel tanks are
the ideal solution. The inherent corrosion resistance and smooth,
hygienic surface of stainless steel, particularly higher grades
like 316, combined with our modular design, provides a strong,
durable, and easily sanitized storage solution.
