D&S Resources successfully fabricated a 130,000L self-bunded tank for storing 98% sulfuric acid. Built to Australian standards, it ensures maximum safety with secondary containment and pressure testing. A reliable, custom-built solution for hazardous material storage.
D&S Resources successfully completed the fabrication and construction of a 130,000L self-bunded tank designed for storing 98% sulfuric acid. This custom-built tank was engineered to meet Australian standards, ensuring safe containment of hazardous materials.
Key aspects of the engineering and fabrication included:
- General Arrangement Drawings
- Detailed Fabrication Drawings
- Finite Element Analysis
- Ground Bearing Pressure Analysis
- Lifting Lug Engineering and Basic Lift Plan
The tank featured secondary containment to provide an additional safety layer in the event of a failure. The fabrication process included:
- Fabrication and assembly of the tank
- Holding brackets mounted on top of the tank for cable tray installation
- Earthing lugs and lifting lugs
- Fabrication and assembly of an access ladder and platform
- External tank finish in white
- Galvanization of the access ladder and platform, painted yellow
- Pressure testing of the vessel
