Large-capacity tanks.
Tanks designed for any type of sector that, due to their large dimensions, are built at the customer’s own facilities.
Their construction can be carried out entirely on-site, or partially on-site with parts of the tank prefabricated in the workshop and sent to the site for assembly with the rest of the materials and accessories.
Tanks that are partially built in the workshop are sent to the customer’s facilities along with the corresponding accessories for final assembly on-site.
On-site tank characteristics:
Types
Water
Ideal for drinking water, industrial water, firefighting, or wastewater.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304/316L (optional carbon steel with vitrified/epoxy treatment in large installations).
Optional: Duplex stainless steel for large-capacity tanks, reducing thicknesses thanks to its higher yield strength.
Typical accessories:
- Top and side manway
- Access stairs and handrails
- Inlet/outlet piping with isolation valves
- Level gauges (sight glass, radar, or ultrasonic)
- Vents and safety valves
- Optional agitation for homogenization
- Conical or spherical roof
Chemical Products
For moderate and aggressive chemicals, acids, alkalis, or concentrated salts.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304/316L (optional carbon with vitrified/epoxy treatment according to standards or volume).
Optional: Duplex stainless steel, recommended for corrosive products in large-capacity tanks, allowing reduction of structural thicknesses.
Typical accessories:
- Mechanical or propeller agitators
- Loading/unloading pipes with safety valves
- Leak detectors and containment basins
- pH, temperature, and pressure instrumentation
- Nitrogen inerting systems
- Vents with anti-corrosive filter
Food and Beverages
For wine, beer, juices, dairy products, oils, syrups, honey, etc.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304/316L with sanitary finish if requested.
Optional: Duplex stainless steel in large tanks for oils, wines, or musts to optimize thicknesses and weight.
Typical accessories:
- Cooling or heating jackets
- Slow agitators for homogenization
- Sanitary DIN/Clamp-type outlets and hygienic bottom valves
- CIP (Cleaning in Place) systems
- Top lid with sight glass or hinged
- Temperature and electronic level meters
- Conical or spherical roof.
Energy and Fuels
For fuels, biofuels, and petroleum and derivatives.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304/316L; carbon steel with coatings according to API 650 standard.
Optional: Duplex stainless steel for biofuel or additive tanks, allowing greater capacity with reduced plate thickness.
Typical accessories:
- Fixed roof (API)
- Pressure/vacuum and vacuum breaker valves
- Flame arrestors on vents
- Floating suction arm
- Leak detection system and safety containment basins
- Loading/unloading pipes with articulated arms
- Level measurement (radar or ultrasound)
- Safety ladders, platforms, and walkways
Mining and Metallurgy
For leaching, reagents, thickeners, various earths, and process water.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304/316L; carbon steel with reinforced coatings in aggressive processes or large volume.
Optional: Duplex stainless steel for reagents or aggressive slurries, extending service life and reducing thicknesses in large-diameter tanks.
Typical accessories:
- High-power agitation
- Discharges with diaphragm or butterfly valves
- pH, redox, and conductivity sensors
- Additional coatings in critical areas
- High-elevation ladders and walkways
- Conical or spherical roof
Fats and Oils (olive, palm, molasses, fatty acids…)
Tanks designed for the safe storage and handling of oils, fats, and derivatives.
Recommended material: Stainless steel AISI 304L; in cases of high corrosion or acidity, stainless steel AISI 316L.
Optional: Duplex stainless steel for large tanks of oils and fatty acids, reducing thicknesses and structural costs.
Typical accessories:
- Heating jackets to maintain product fluidity
- Gentle agitation to prevent stratification
- Large-diameter sanitary discharge valves
- Integrated level and temperature meters
- CIP systems for internal cleaning
- Thermal insulation option with rock wool and exterior cladding (stainless steel or aluminum)
- Conical or spherical roof depending on application.
