As environmental regulations tighten and water scarcity becomes a growing concern, more industries are turning to Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems. ZLD is not just a wastewater treatment strategy, it is a commitment to environmental responsibility. By ensuring that no liquid waste leaves the facility, ZLD allows complete water recovery and safe disposal or reuse of dissolved solids. However, operating a ZLD system efficiently requires highly durable and reliable infrastructure especially when it comes to chemical storage.
In ZLD systems, chemical tanks are not just passive containers. They are critical components exposed to aggressive, corrosive, and reactive fluids on a regular basis. This is where Storewel Chemical Storage Tanks offer a distinct advantage.
Why Chemical Storage is Crucial in ZLD Systems
ZLD systems involve several stages of pre-treatment, chemical dosing, membrane filtration, evaporation, and crystallization. At nearly every stage, chemicals are dosed or held to treat wastewater and control scale formation, corrosion, or microbial growth.
Some of the common chemicals used in ZLD systems include:
- Acids (like hydrochloric or sulfuric acid) for pH reduction
- Alkalis (such as sodium hydroxide) for pH correction and neutralization
- Coagulants and flocculants for solid separation
- Anti-scalants to prevent mineral deposition
- Disinfectants like chlorine or hydrogen peroxide
These chemicals are often stored on-site in large volumes and may be highly corrosive, temperature-sensitive, or reactive with air or moisture. If the storage tank fails due to leakage, cracking, or corrosion it can lead to safety hazards, environmental violations, and production downtime.
This makes the choice of chemical storage tank critical especially in ZLD plants where uptime, compliance, and containment integrity are non-negotiable.
Storewel Chemical Storage Tanks: Designed for Demanding Environments
Storewel’s Chemical Tanks are manufactured using high-grade virgin polyethylene through rotational moulding, a process that delivers unmatched durability and seamless construction. Unlike metal tanks or poorly constructed plastic alternatives, Storewel tanks are built for long-term, leak-free performance in chemically aggressive conditions.
Key Features That Support ZLD Operations
Seamless, One-Piece Construction
The rotomoulding process eliminates joints and seams, ensuring no weak points where leaks or cracks can develop. This enhances structural integrity under pressure and during long-term chemical exposure.
High Chemical Compatibility
The material used is chemically resistant to a wide range of acids, alkalis, and oxidisers. Whether storing sodium hypochlorite or ferric chloride, Storewel tanks can withstand reactive contents without degradation.
UV-Stabilised for Outdoor Use
Many ZLD facilities store tanks outdoors. Storewel tanks are UV-stabilized to resist fading, brittleness, and structural weakening due to sun exposure.
Corrosion-Free Operation
Unlike steel tanks that corrode or require costly anti-corrosion coatings, Storewel’s polymer-based tanks are inherently corrosion-resistant ensuring lower maintenance and a longer service life.
Wide Range of Sizes and Fittings
Available in multiple capacities and customizable with inlet/outlet ports, manholes, and mounting supports to suit different ZLD setups.
Applications Across ZLD and Beyond
Storewel tanks are ideal for chemical storage in the following ZLD system functions:
- Pre-treatment chemical dosing
- pH correction and neutralization tanks
- Sludge conditioning and flocculation storage
- Holding tanks for treated reject water
- Intermediate storage for recovered water
Beyond ZLD, Storewel Chemical Tanks are also widely used in:
- Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs)
- Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs)
- Textile, paper, and dyeing industries
- Fertilizer and agrochemical storage
- Pharmaceutical and laboratory setups
Their adaptability across industrial, agricultural, and environmental sectors makes Storewel a reliable partner for any operation requiring robust chemical containment.
