Storage Tank

Snyder Industries vertical chemical storage tank
12 sector applications

Where LibertyCES specs Storage Tank

Municipal Water

Strong evidence
SAFE-Tank

Water treatment explicitly listed application sector.

Municipal Wastewater

Moderate evidence
Snyder Chemical Feed Station

General wastewater-treatment chemical storage tanks, not a dedicated wastewater case.

Mining

Strong evidence
Schurco S/L/H/V/U/Z/P Series pumps and tanks · Houston PolyTank

Mining explicitly named application sector.

Oil & Gas

Strong evidence
Snyder Chemical Injection Tanks

Oil & gas, petroleum explicitly named sectors; named pipeline-integrity chemistries.

Chemical Processing

Strong evidence
Poly Processing SAFE-Tank

Chemical storage is the named core sector for these vendors.

Pharmaceutical

Moderate evidence
Peabody ProChem Tank

Pharma explicitly named among target chemical-batch-processing sectors.

Food & Beverage

Moderate evidence
DULCODOS SAFE-IBC F&B

EN 1935/2004 food-contact-compliant IBC metering/emptying station explicitly named.

Agriculture/Irrigation

Strong evidence
Ace Roto-Mold Crop Care Tanks · Peabody ProChem Agricultural Tanks

Crop care/agricultural explicitly named product lines across multiple tank vendors.

Desalination

Moderate evidence
Poly Processing Horizontal Tanks

Desalination explicitly named application sector.

Hydroponics/Aquaponics

Strong evidence
ProChem NSF-61 Potable Water, Hydroponics & Agricultural Tanks

Hydroponics explicitly named in product line title.

Marine

Moderate evidence
Ace Roto-Mold marine tanks · Poly Processing offshore tanks

Marine and offshore explicitly named sectors.

Moderate evidence
Peabody Methane Gas Recovery condensate dropout tanks

Methane Gas Recovery products (condensate dropout tanks, collection sumps, storage tanks) explicitly named for landfill gas systems.

5 chemical compatibility records

Chemical compatibility

Acids

Strong evidence
Sulfuric AcidHydrochloric AcidHydrofluoric Acid
Materials: XLPE (recommended over LPE) · PVDF/316SS (above 70%/100F for H2SO4) · CPVC
Poly Processing SAFE-Tank/IMFO · Snyder Vertical/Horizontal Tanks (resin #880046) · Peabody ProChem · Ace Roto-Mold Vertical Tanks

Sulfuric acid is the only chemistry with an unconditional secondary-containment mandate per Poly Processing; PE itself fails at 98%+ concentration/fuming form.

Caustics/Bases

Strong evidence
Sodium HydroxidePotassium Hydroxide
Materials: EPDM (required) · Viton (NOT recommended) · PVDF (NOT recommended)
Peabody ProChem · Poly Processing IMFO/SAFE-Tank

Peabody's bulkhead-fitting table shows an unusual double-exclusion: both Viton and PVDF explicitly not recommended for NaOH, EPDM required.

Oxidizers/Disinfectants

Strong evidence
Sodium HypochloriteHydrogen Peroxide
Materials: EPDM (fails per Ace Roto-Mold: flat 'N') · 316SS (fails: flat 'N') · dedicated resin #880059 (Snyder)
Snyder Vertical/Horizontal/Chemical Feed Station tanks · Ace Roto-Mold Vertical Tanks · Peabody ProChem (hinged-weighted manway for H2O2)

Poly Processing caps on-site hypochlorite generation (0.8%) at 4,000 gallons without engineering review; hinged-weighted manway vents at 0.25psi for H2O2 decomposition.

Salts/Brines

Moderate evidence
Calcium ChlorideSodium Chloride (brine)
Materials: HDPE · Polypropylene
Snyder Brine Tanks · Ace Roto-Mold (calcium chloride)

Snyder dedicates a distinct product family (Brine Tanks) for salt/brine service.

Solvents/Organics

Moderate evidence
GasolineTolueneXyleneBenzene
Materials: XLPE (engineered fuel-tank exception, not LPE)
Ace Roto-Mold Fuel Tanks · Snyder Fuel Tanks

Standard LPE not resistant to fuels; XLPE construction is a real, explicit engineered exception documented by two independent tank vendors.
