Discover how our heated liquid storage solutions can help businesses across various industries, from wastewater management to construction and manufacturing.
For big businesses, operations never stop. Whether it’s planned maintenance, sudden demand or growth opportunities, our rental liquid storage tanks have been used to keep operations going across the UK.
At TerraTank, we’ve developed a wide range of tanks to suit all manner of industry challenges, including our specialist heated liquid storage tanks. Fitted with a manifolded steam coil for efficient and balanced heat transfer, our heater tanks are a great choice for situations where temperature control is paramount. Here are some scenarios where our heated liquid storage can help to keep businesses moving.
Wastewater Treatment
Our tanks have been used across various wastewater treatment projects, helping to keep the treatment process in motion during essential maintenance and seasonal demand shifts.
Our regular effluent storage and aeration tanks are very popular for supporting wastewater treatment works, but when it comes to winter operations, heated liquid storage can be crucial.
Various stages of the wastewater treatment process rely upon good bacteria eating the bad bacteria to purify the water before it can be released. For good bacteria to thrive, regular temperatures have to be maintained, which can be a challenge during the winter months.
Our heated liquid storage solutions help ensure a consistent temperature in the tank, creating the perfect environment for efficient water purification.
Winter Construction Operations
When it comes to big construction projects, time is money. Delays due to cold winter weather can be very expensive; our temporary heated liquid storage helps keep the show on the road.
One of the big issues with winter construction is producing concrete. If the water used in concrete is close to freezing, it can set too quickly, significantly reducing its strength. Heated storage tanks can ensure there’s a constant supply of warm water, enabling large-scale concrete production even in cold weather.
Another area where heated liquid storage can support a winter construction site is during equipment washing. Cleaning equipment with cold water increases the likelihood of freezing, which can damage vital parts. Heated water can help alleviate some of that risk.
Manufacturing Plant Maintenance
For major manufacturing plants, periods of heavy maintenance, called turnarounds, are a huge operation. Again, time is money, so turnarounds require a swift, detailed and intensive operation to check over every aspect and ensure it can all get online and back to full capacity as soon as possible.
Many turnaround scenarios rely on high quantities of heated water for the purpose of cleaning pipes and other internal systems of heavy contaminants. Some heated systems, such as boilers, also rely on warm water for cleaning because ambient or cold water could cause a temperature shock, which can be hugely damaging to materials like glass.
If you’re looking for temporary heated liquid storage, our TT70 Heater Tank could be the perfect choice. The TT70 is fitted with a manifolded steam coil to ensure efficient heat transfer, perfect for any projects that require heating or temperature regulation of large volumes of liquid.
