Using Self Bunded Tanks

If the nature of your business requires large volumes of fuel or other petrochemical liquids to be available on site, then using a self bunded tank should be your storage solution of choice.To define it simply, a self bunded tank is a tank within a tank. It has double steel walls that allows for effective and safe storage of fuel and other liquids.

A self bunded tank is easy to relocate and can be used even in remote locations. It can also be manufactured according to the specific requirements of your business and comes complete with fuel dispensing and management systems.

There are many other advantages of having a self bunded tank in your business location. The advantages are discussed below to help you decide if a self bunded tank is the storage solution you need.

Versatility

A self bunded tank can be used to store fuel and other liquids and is suitable for petroleum, petrochemical and chemical applications. A self bunded tank can also be used to store biodiesel, oil and waste oil. It is also easily relocated and installed to your business site. Installation is simple and direct and additional equipment may also be fitted according to your requirements.

Durability

A self bunded tank is built tough. Its double steel walls prevent leaks and spillage of the liquids contained. If the liquid leaks through the first wall, there is still the second wall to prevent the liquid from spilling through and contaminating the entire area. However, spillage through the first wall, which is also called the bund wall, is highly unlikely as it is a strong structure designed to prevent any leak or deluge of the liquids stored. The durability and strength of a self bunded tank is something you can rely on for years to come.

Cost Effective

A self bunded tank is able to store large amounts of liquids. Their capacity typically ranges from 1,000 litres to 150,000 litres. When you store this amount of fuel on site, your employees won't have to leave the premises to have vehicles or machineries refuelled. This cuts the time and resources they have to spend travelling to and from refuelling stations. Its easy installation also minimises related costs and time spent to have it set-up.

Wide Range

There are several types of self bunded tanks. Two that are gaining popularity among business owners are the Self Bunded Wraptank and the Self Bunded Container Wraptank. The Self Bunded Wraptank is the more traditional, round-shaped self bunded tank. It comes with standard tank fittings but can also be manufactured for specific customer requirements.

The Self Bunded Container Wraptank is an innovatively designed round-shaped self bunded tank that is contained in a rectangular frame. This type of tank is completely self supporting with no requirement for internal baffles, making it safe for any internal access. The underside of the tank is also visible from the rectangular base so the tank does not need to be lifted for periodic inspection.

Types of self bunded tanks

If your business requires fuel to be readily available onsite or if you need a better storage system for flammable and combustibles liquids, then consider using a self bunded tank. A self bunded tank is made of double steel walls, making them effective for self containment and suitable for onsite fuel storage.

A self bunded tank is well known for its toughness and durability. Its double steel walls prevent any spillage of the liquids it contain, ensuring that the area is kept safe from damage or contamination. Having this double walled tank in your business location is also a cost effective way for your employees to refuel vehicles and machineries without having to make trips to a gas station. A self bunded tank is also easily installed and relocated, making it ideal for even remote locations.

There are different types of self bunded tanks, all suitable for petroleum, petrochemical and chemical applications. To help you decide which one fits your business requirements, each type is discussed below.

7 facts about how bunding works

Due to environmental laws and industry regulations, the use of bunded storage systems or bunded tanks has become a necessary requirement for any business requiring fuel or other liquids to be stored on site. The strength and reliability of a self bunded tank has proven itself to be a safe and effective storage system. But how does a bunded tank work? Below are 7 facts about bunding and how it is applied in self bunded tanks.

1. Bunding is a wall or structure within a containment system or storage tank designed to prevent spillage of the liquids. Bunding is also known as a bund or a bund wall. Bunding, as a form of liquid containment, can also refer to dikes or any barrier that prevents liquids from spilling through the structure. In a storage system such as a tank, bunding can be simply described as a tank within a tank.

2. The use of bunding in storage of liquids is a legal requirement in many countries, particularly for industries that use storage facilities or tanks to contain hazardous liquids, chemicals and wastes. As many of these liquids are environmental hazards, bunding acts as a durable double wall that prevents leakage of the liquids contained, thus minimising or eliminating pollution and injury to individuals.

3. The materials used for bunding must be impervious to and compatible with the liquids contained in order to avoid harmful chemical reactions. Concrete is generally recommended as it is durable and mostly impervious; however it may cause dangerous reactions to liquids containing strong acids. In this case, an additional coating that is acid resistant must be used.

4. Bunding should be large and durable enough to hold the contents of an entire tank. The bund height should be able to hold 100% of the tank’s capacity. When two or more tanks share a bund, the bunding of the largest tank should be at least 10% higher, for a total holding capacity of 110%. Some regulations may also require bunding to be a third larger to accommodate displaced liquids, but as general practise operators follow the 110% capacity guide.

5. When transferring liquids from a tank vehicle, the capacity of the bunding should be greater than 100% of the largest compartment of any tank vehicle filling it.

6. To prevent rainwater from entering and mixing with the liquids contained, the bunded area should be stored in a roofed facility. If this is not possible, proper disposal of rainwater as prescribed by regulations should be observed. Facilities should be provided to bunded tanks to transfer rainwater to the sewer or to a rainwater drainage system. Rainwater reduces the holding capacity of the bunding and can also become contaminated when it comes in contact with the stored liquid, so preventing it from entering the bunded area or removing it safely is crucial.

7. Bunding is applied to self bunded tanks. An ordinary metal or steel tank requires additional bunding facilities such as linings, drums or spill pallets to be placed inside the tank, to act as the bund wall. In a self bunded tank already has built-in bunding inside the tank, eliminating the need for additional bunding facilities. A self bunded tank is manufactured to meet industry and statutory requirements of bunding, making it a complete storage facility for fuel and other liquids. Because of its durability, versatility and cost effectiveness, the self bunded tank has become the preferred liquid storage system in many industries.
