Product Description

Product Introduction

The Methanol Storage Tank is specially designed for safe, long-term storage of fuel-grade, chemical-grade and electronic-grade methanol (CH3OH). Tanks are manufactured strictly according to ASME, GB 50341 standards with high-strength carbon steel and multi-layer epoxy or phenolic internal coating to resist methanol's strong solubility and corrosivity. Standard features include nitrogen blanketing system, flame arrestors, emergency vent valves, level/temperature/pressure monitoring, and optional fire-fighting foam system. Available in fixed-roof, internal/external floating-roof, and dome-roof configurations to minimize evaporation loss and VOC emissions.
