China PO/PE Lined Tank Products, Service
Product Description
Core Overview
Our PO/PE lined tanks are engineered to deliver exceptional corrosion resistance and structural durability, making them ideal for storing aggressive chemicals, acids, alkalis, and wastewater in industries like chemical processing, water treatment, and food & beverage. The tanks feature a carbon steel outer shell combined with a seamless polyolefin (PO) or polyethylene (PE) inner lining, bonded via a specialized process to eliminate delamination risks. This design ensures long-term reliability while maintaining product purity, with options for customization to meet specific storage needs.

Core Advantages
01
Superior Corrosion Protection
The PO/PE lining is inert to most chemicals, preventing contamination and extending tank lifespan by 3-5 times compared to unlined steel tanks.
02
Cost-Effective
Offers 40%-60% lower costs than stainless steel tanks while maintaining comparable performance in corrosive environments.
03
Hygienic & Easy to Clean
The non-stick inner surface prevents residue buildup, meeting food and pharmaceutical hygiene standards and reducing maintenance efforts.
04
Customizable Design
Available in various capacities, with options for heating jackets, agitators, and level monitoring systems to suit specific application requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the primary difference between PO and PE lined tanks?
PO (Polyolefin) lined tanks offer higher operating temperatures (-20°C to 110°C) and higher operating pressure tolerances (up to 0.6MPa), whereas PE (Polyethylene) lined tanks operate between -30°C and 80°C up to 0.4MPa.
Q: Which industries commonly use PO and PE lined storage tanks?
They are predominantly utilized in chemical processing, municipal and industrial water treatment, and food & beverage manufacturing for storing acids, alkalis, aggressive chemicals, and wastewater.
Q: How is lining delamination prevented inside the tank?
The seamless PO or PE inner lining is bonded to the carbon steel outer shell using a specialized thermo-fusion process that securely integrates both materials, eliminating delamination risks under standard operating conditions.
Q: How do lined carbon steel tanks compare financially to stainless steel tanks?
PO/PE lined tanks reduce capital equipment costs by 40% to 60% compared to pure stainless steel alternatives while providing matching or superior corrosion protection against aggressive media.
Q: Are these tanks suitable for sanitary and food-grade applications?
Yes, the inert and non-stick surface properties of PO/PE linings prevent product buildup and cross-contamination, fulfilling strict food and pharmaceutical sanitation and hygiene guidelines.
Q: What custom components can be integrated with these tanks?
Customizations include exterior heating jackets, mechanical agitators, advanced level transmitters, and tailored flange or threaded connection types to match your operational piping system.
