Center Enamel Delivers High-Quality Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks for Saudi Arabia Wastewater Treatment Project
As part of its continued commitment to supporting sustainable water management solutions, Center Enamel, a global leader in Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks, has successfully provided a series of advanced GFS tanks for the Saudi Arabia Wastewater Treatment Project. Completed in August 2017, this project demonstrates Center Enamel's capability to deliver customized, high-performance tank solutions to meet the specific needs of wastewater treatment plants in demanding environments.
Project Overview
The Saudi Arabia Wastewater Treatment Project required multiple tanks designed to manage different phases of the wastewater treatment process, including sludge management, conditioning, aeration, and sewage storage. Center Enamel provided the following tank models for the project:
Sludge Tank Anaerobic: Ф4.59 meters x 7.2 meters (H), with a capacity of 119m³
Conditioning Tank: Ф6.11 meters x 14.4 meters (H), with a capacity of 422m³
Post Aeration Tank: Ф7.64 meters x 9 meters (H), with a capacity of 412m³
Sludge Tank Aerobic: Ф3.82 meters x 7.2 meters (H), with a capacity of 82m³
Sewage Storage Tank: Ф5.35 meters x 14.4 meters (H), with a capacity of 323m³
Anaerobic Reactor: Ф11.46 meters x 10.2 meters (H), with a capacity of 1051m³
Each of these tanks is designed to meet the project’s operational demands, ensuring efficient and reliable wastewater treatment.
Roof Types: GFS and Aluminum Alloy
The project required both Glass-Fused-to-Steel roofs and Aluminum alloy roofs to complement the various tank structures. These roof types were chosen for their:
Corrosion resistance: Essential for long-term use in harsh environments, both roof types provide excellent protection against corrosion.
Lightweight and robust design: The aluminum alloy roofs offer a strong yet lightweight solution that ensures stability and durability, particularly in high-temperature climates like Saudi Arabia.
Longevity: Both GFS and aluminum roofs are built to last, requiring minimal maintenance over the lifespan of the tanks.
Why Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks for Wastewater Treatment?
Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks are the perfect choice for wastewater treatment projects due to their unmatched durability, corrosion resistance, and easy assembly. These tanks are made by fusing two materials—glass and steel—at temperatures of up to 850°C, creating a surface that is both chemically resistant and impermeable. This makes them ideal for storing and processing wastewater, sludge, and other corrosive materials.
Additional benefits of GFS tanks include:
Fast Installation: The modular nature of GFS tanks allows for quick on-site assembly, significantly reducing project timelines.
Low Maintenance: GFS tanks require minimal maintenance, providing long-term savings and operational efficiency.
Customizable Design: Center Enamel offers customizable tank sizes and roof configurations, ensuring that the tanks meet the specific needs of any project.
