Main Features of Containerized Bitumen Tank
1. Containerized Structure
Its appearance and structure resemble standard shipping containers, typically constructed from steel. The structure is robust, suitable for both land and sea transportation. The interior of the tank is often made of corrosion-resistant materials to ensure long-term durability.
2. Flexibility in Capacity
The capacity of the containerized bitumen tank can be customized according to requirements, usually available in various specifications and sizes. This flexibility is beneficial for meeting the bitumen storage needs of different construction sites and projects.
3. Heating System
To address the issue of high viscosity in bitumen at low temperatures, the containerized bitumen tank is equipped with an efficient heating system. This is primarily achieved through methods such as direct heating, thermal oil heating, or electric heating, ensuring that the bitumen maintains proper fluidity during storage and transportation.
4. Insulation Design
In order to prevent bitumen from solidifying due to temperature drops during transportation, containerized bitumen tanks typically incorporate insulation design. This includes the use of insulation materials such as rock wool to reduce heat loss and maintain stable temperatures for the bitumen.
5. Mixing System
Some containerized bitumen tanks are also equipped with a mixing system to ensure the uniform mixing of bitumen, preventing issues related to sedimentation and uneven temperatures.
6. Safety Features
Containerized bitumen tanks are typically equipped with various safety features, including temperature sensors, pressure sensors, safety valves, etc., to ensure safe operations during storage and transportation.
7. High Transportation Efficiency
Due to its containerized form, this bitumen tank exhibits flexible transportation capabilities. It can be conveniently transported to various construction sites or destinations through different modes of transportation, including road, sea, and rail transport.
8. Environmentally Friendly and Low Carbon
Some containerized bitumen tanks designed with modern considerations also prioritize environmental factors. They utilize eco-friendly materials and technologies to reduce adverse environmental impacts, contributing to a low-carbon and environmentally sustainable solution.
