Recently, with the help of a 3rd party leader in Polymer Engineering, we developed an enhanced OR-1000 resin. We've taken what we’ve learned in the field in the last 15 years and improved the material. Poly Processing’s exclusive OR-1000™ system was designed to address aggressive oxidation. We've recently developed a new enhanced version of the resin as an effective solution for your chemical storage needs.
In this blog we look at two types of plastic tank manufacturing, rotational molding and extrusion winding and explain how each process works and the benefits of a seamless (homogenous) tank for chemical storage. In polyethylene chemical storage tank manufacturing, there are a couple of popular processes to produce tanks. One involves rotationally molded tanks and the other is extrusion wound tanks. Each of these types of tanks are manufactured in a specific way. For some applications, the process by which a tank is manufactured is critical.

We discuss the latest in polymer composite technology for storing strong oxidative chemicals like Sodium Hypochlorite, Hydrochloric Acid, and Sulfuric Acid. Poly Processing Company commonly uses high-density crosslinked polyethylene in our chemical storage tank construction. We use an engineered polyethylene called OR-1000 system inside of our crosslinked polyethylene tanks for heavy oxidizing chemicals, ensuring durable construction and an excellent antioxidant system.

Technical specifications are one of the most important aspects of any project. And having clear specifications not only allows you to get a clear picture of what the expectations are but it also allows you to plan ahead.

The aspects of effective chemical storage tank design are often played out in real life, in a much less dangerous, yet still interesting, way.

One of the biggest challenges in chemical storage tank design is achieving a full drain of the chemicals from the tank during regular operation as well as cleaning.

There are several measures taken during the shipping and delivery process in order to protect your investment in a chemical storage tank and its accessories. Poly Processing tanks ship directly from one of our three strategically located plant sites: Louisiana, California, or Virginia.
Topics: Installation and Field Service
Storage tanks that are used outdoors need to be protected from the elements. Depending on the chemical being stored, and if the tank is kept outside, there are also factors to consider in order to protect the tank and its contents.

Here at Poly Processing, we spend a lot of time getting the tank built to spec, but if a tank is not installed correctly it could lead to damage, leaks, safety issues for personnel, and ultimately a shorter tank life. That’s why we take chemical tank installation seriously.
