Introduction

In the realm of storage solutions, innovation takes many forms, and one such remarkable innovation is the Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) Coated Prefabricated Tank. 

These tanks embody the marriage of cutting-edge technology and functional design, providing a robust solution for storing diverse liquids while offering unparalleled durability and environmental resilience. 

Let’s dive into the world of Kymik Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE)-coated prefabricated tanks, exploring their intricate processes, applications, and the myriad benefits they offer.

Increasing Steel with Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) Coating

Imagine a steel structure fortified by a layer of advanced epoxy—the essence of Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE)-coated prefabricated tanks. These tanks result from a meticulous process involving epoxy and mild steel plates.

This fusion serves a pivotal purpose: to enhance the properties of steel and fortify it against the challenges posed by environmental conditions. While bare steel is susceptible to the whims of weather and corrosion, the fusion of epoxy changes the game.

The resulting coating amplifies resistance against atmospheric weathering and corrosion, effectively widening the acceptable pH range. The applications for these tanks are vast, encompassing the storage of clear water, wastewater, organic waste, oil, and more.

Crafting Excellence: The Process and Technology

A sophisticated fusion process is at the heart of Kymik Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE)-coated prefabricated tanks. The interior and exterior of tank panels are coated with epoxy, creating a protective barrier against the elements.

This process unfolds within a specialized furnace with temperatures ranging from 120 to 240 degrees Celsius. The construction of the tank shell involves the strategic overlapping of two panels, secured in place through nut bolting using high-grade nuts and bolts. A constant application of flexible sealant ensures a seamless union.

The fusion process extends beyond the panels. The connecting materials and shell accessories undergo meticulous surface protection treatments, ensuring comprehensive resilience. The result is a tank that serves as a versatile storage solution. These tanks go beyond storage; they form the bedrock of environmental and technological facilities, including wastewater treatment plants and biogas stations.
