The automotive industry plays a pivotal role in Hungary, with manufacturers leading the transition to electric models. This transition has sparked a growing demand for batteries across Europe, significantly impacting our country’s car manufacturers. This tendency creates an increasing need for battery industry suppliers. In response, the development of domestic industry prioritizes expanding battery manufacturing capacities.
Driven by global trends, Hungary is attracting increasing investments related to the battery industry, mainly from East Asia. Chemical storage tanks are critical components of battery factories, requiring the highest quality standards. In this article, we provide a detailed overview of the key considerations in the manufacturing of chemical storage tanks and the specific requirements for chemical storage tanks used in battery factories.
What defines a good chemical storage tank?
The manufacturing of chemical storage tanks is a highly specialized and regulated field, requiring certified expertise and qualified production processes. Our tanks are made from AISI 316L or higher-grade stainless steel ensuring full compliance with stringent regulations. They are designed for safe operation across a wide temperature range and can withstand both negative and high positive pressures.
The application of chemical storage tanks is indispensable in various industries, including textile, petrochemical, chemical, dye and paint, battery, steel, rubber, plastic, and paper industries, where they must ensure the proper storage and processing of raw materials. Their key strengths include chemical resistance, temperature and pressure regulation, and integrated mixing equipment.
Standard equipment and accessories for chemical storage tanks
The standard equipment for chemical storage tanks includes:
- Cylindrical shell
- Closure mechanism
- Material transfer nozzles
- Support structure
- Instrumentation
- Probes and openings
Equipping tanks with additional accessories, such as walkways, carbon steel material, cladding, shell, and integrated mixing device, helps them meet specific industry needs. These features and accessories boost the efficiency and versatility of our tanks while ensuring compliance with the highest safety standards.
Corrosion-resistant chemical storage tank for safe handling of chemicals
These specifications apply to chemical storage tanks used in battery factories
In battery manufacturing, numerous chemicals are used, such as acids, alkaline substances, and other electrolytes. These compounds are dangerous, corrosive, and often flammable, requiring chemical tanks for safe storage.
For their manufacturing, we typically use 1.4301 stainless steel due to its excellent corrosion resistance. Additionally, the surface roughness of the tanks is a crucial factor, as battery production occurs in clean rooms where even the smallest contamination or dust is unacceptable, due to the risk of explosion. Therefore, during manufacturing, we place special emphasis on surface treatment, involving multiple steps with specialized machinery and abrasive materials to ensure that no contaminants adhere to the tank surfaces.
Our expertly manufactured chemical storage tanks, featuring mirror-polished, homogeneous surfaces, comply with both cleanroom and chemical industry standards. They offer exceptional safety for handling the chemicals used in battery manufacturing.
