FRP storage tank manufacturers use FRP-series liquid phase adsorbers where corrosion is their sole concern. These units have 150 psi rating that reveals that these can be used in high pressure applications. You must protect your FRP vessels from vacuum conditions by using vacuum breaker in the line. Manufacturers intend FRP series tanks in several sizes to handle a comprehensive range of liquid flows. They craft the filament wound vessels with an internal bladder wrapped in fiberglass, which made them ideal product for filtration. They use activated carbon, resins, or other filtering media to design the filters. Food grade internals are standard along with vast variety of inlet/outlet sizes. Installation of FRP adsorbers in the tanks FRP adsorbers are transported empty along with the required carbon. Experts should connect the adsorbers and test all fittings pressure to determine leak points before installing the carbon through the top access hole.

  2. A vacuum relief device is used to prevent damage in the tank. Once the carbon is loaded, clean water should be released to the unit through the bottom collector. Experts recommend backwashing the carbon to remove the carbon fines that may result in excessive pressure drop through the unit. Maintenance All liquid phase adsorbers work great when they are backwashed periodically. Backwashing removes the fines and channel flow. Apart from this, extra maintenance can be done by testing the effluent quality and checking the operating pressure of the system will help in achieving great results. Experts always recommend monitoring the containment level into the last unit to safeguard the unit against failure. Service Over time adsorber’s carbon is saturated by dirt and contaminants. It is advisable to take off the unit and replace the saturated carbon with fresh one. You can easily get a fresh carbon from the store of supplier, who is already offering related products. When preparing the unit for service, drain the water as much as possible from the vessel. Bring experts to service your tank and those who can install the carbon to it. FRP storage tank manufacturers would like you to note down a thing- wet activated carbon expels oxygen from air. This causes a severe hazard to workers inside carbon vessels. It is necessary to put confined space/low oxygen procedures prior entering to the vessels. All guidelines should be followed by the team for best results.
