20000 Litre Bladder Water Tank, Non-Potable
Collapsible Pillow Tanks for Non-Potable Water. Flexible Bladders for storage of NON-POTABLE Water. These collapsible pillow tanks are ideal for emergency use, fast deployment, marquees, transporting empty tanks to difficult locations. A range of flexible bladder tanks for Non-Potable water, Dilute Chemicals, Sludges and Effluents.
The collapsible tank for non-potable water storage is built to include any number of non-potable water items including brine water, process water, production water, rain water, and waste water. Where there is need for temporary liquid storage, the Flexible Bladder Tank can quickly be deployed and filled. Once the application is complete they can be emptied, cleaned and stored for use at some later date. Standard BSP fittings are used to connect the tank to the pipework and pumps, however the fittings can be change to suit the equipment being used.
Collapsible Tank Information
The pillow tank is constructed from top-grade fabrics to ensure complete containment of your liquids during operation. Built to meet demanding climate and containment requirements, these tanks have been successfully used in operations involving oil spill collection, mining, construction, UN relief operations and more. Pillow tanks are designed in multiple sizes including many capacities between the range of 1000 and 200,000 Litres. This can meet small storage requirements around homes, businesses, and facilities, as well as large storage needs around construction sites, mining locations, and oil fields. It is recommended the Pillow Tanks are laid down on a ground cleared of any sharp objects and on top of a Groundsheet. Groundsheets are available as an optional extra in Geotextile or PVC.
Collapsible Pillow Tanks for HD Dirty Water: (If you require a HD tank, please select this from the option)
HD Dirty water can be waste containing washings such as from milking parlours, farm dairies, cleaning work and run-off from open concrete areas that are dirtied by manure or silage. Generally, it contains less than 3% dry matter. Liquid that drains from manure and slurry stores and silage effluent are often collected in dirty water handling systems. These materials are a lot more polluting than yard run-off or cleaning water. The biochemical oxygen demand (or BOD) and the amount of plant nutrients in dirty water can vary widely, depending upon its source. Determination of the pH plays an important role in waste water storage. Extreme pH levels, presence of particulate matters, accumulation of toxic chemicals and increasing alkalinity levels are common problems when storing waste water in a flexible pillow tank.
Controlled safe storage has become a serious environmental concern in recent years and hence municipal and industrial waste water storage and treatments are critical before it enters to lakes, rivers, canals and other water bodies. Storage of slurries allow for neutralization, precipitation, coagulation and other biological treatment processes to stabilise the pH. With such variable the correct flexible tank must be selected, where slurries start with extreme pH levels and for concentrated artificial liquid fertilisers the HD Tank is recommended.
Each Bladder Tank Includes:
- 2 x 2" BSP Male bulkhead connector (can be used as an inlet and outlet)
- 4 x Corner Protectors
- 1 x 4" Access port with integrated 0.5 PSI Pressure relief valve
- 1 x 2" Underside Drain
