Center Enamel Provides Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks for the Philippines Water Purification Project
Center Enamel, the industry leader in Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tank solutions, proudly completed the Philippines Water Purification Project, a crucial initiative to improve access to clean water in the Philippines. With the installation completed in June 2019, the project plays a key role in ensuring the reliable supply of purified water for the region.
Project Overview:
The project was executed in two phases, both featuring high-quality GFS tanks with GFS roofs, known for their corrosion resistance, durability, and compliance with international water standards.
Phase 1:
1 unit: Ø9.93 x 12.0m (H), 928m³ capacity
2 units: Ø9.17 x 7.8m (H), 515m³ capacity
1 unit: Ø7.64 x 6.0m (H), 275m³ capacity
Phase 2:
1 unit: Ø9.93 x 12.0m (H), 928m³ capacity
2 units: Ø7.64 x 6.0m (H), 275m³ capacity
Each tank is equipped with a Glass-Fused-to-Steel roof, ensuring top-level performance for storing purified water and maintaining water quality.
Why Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks Were Selected for the Water Purification Project
The Philippines Water Purification Project required advanced storage solutions capable of withstanding the tropical environment and ensuring safe, long-term water storage. Center Enamel’s GFS tanks were the ideal choice for this critical infrastructure due to their unique properties and benefits.
Key Advantages of GFS Tanks:
Superior Corrosion Resistance: The GFS tanks provided by Center Enamel offer exceptional protection against corrosion. The glass coating fused to the steel surface during the production process creates a smooth, chemically-resistant barrier, ensuring the tanks’ longevity in the humid and potentially corrosive environment of the Philippines.
Durability and Long-Term Performance: These tanks are designed for long-term, low-maintenance operation. With a tank height of up to 12 meters, they are engineered to store large volumes of water while resisting environmental stressors such as extreme temperatures, humidity, and heavy rains.
GFS Roof for Enhanced Protection: The GFS roofs used on these tanks provide additional protection against external contaminants such as debris, dust, and wildlife. This ensures the stored water remains clean and uncontaminated throughout the storage period.
International Certification: Center Enamel’s tanks comply with international standards, including ISO 9001 and NSF/ANSI 61, making them a trusted solution for water purification projects across the globe.
A Vital Step Toward Clean Water in the Philippines
Access to clean water is a top priority for communities in the Philippines, where rapid urbanization and population growth have increased the demand for reliable water storage solutions. The Philippines Water Purification Project addresses this need by ensuring that large quantities of water can be safely stored for purification and distribution.
This project’s success highlights the importance of choosing high-quality storage solutions for water purification systems. Center Enamel’s Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks ensure the integrity of the stored water, providing peace of mind to local authorities and citizens.
