Key technical specifications of our GFS tanks include:
Coating Thickness: A uniform coating of 0.25-0.45mm on both sides of the steel plates.
Acid and Alkalinity Proof: Standard coating handles a pH range of 3-11, with special coatings available for the most
aggressive media up to a pH of 1-14.
Adhesion: A strong bond of 3450 N/cm², ensuring the coating will not peel or chip.
Hardness: A Mohs hardness of 6.0, providing excellent resistance to abrasion.
This robust material is the foundation of a tank that can provide a service life of over 30 years with minimal maintenance.
The Unmatched Advantages of Center Enamel's GFS Biogas Tanks
The choice of a preliminary biogas tank can significantly impact a project’s long-term viability and profitability. Our GFS
tanks offer a host of advantages over traditional concrete or welded steel tanks.
1. Exceptional Corrosion and Wear Resistance: The aggressive nature of biogas feedstock and the byproducts of anaerobic
digestion, such as hydrogen sulfide, can quickly corrode traditional materials. The GFS lining acts as an impermeable
barrier, preventing corrosive agents from reaching the steel. This not only extends the tank’s life but also eliminates the
need for expensive and frequent re-lining or repainting, which are common for other tank types.
2. Superior Gas Tightness: Maintaining anaerobic conditions is critical for efficient biogas production. Our GFS tanks are
engineered with special sealants and a self-locking bolt design that ensures a perfect, gas-tight seal. This prevents valuable
biogas from leaking and maintains the integrity of the preliminary stage, optimizing the overall efficiency of the digestion
process.
3. Rapid, Cost-Effective, and Flexible Installation: Our modular, bolted design allows for fast and efficient on-site assembly.
Pre-fabricated panels are shipped to the project site and can be erected in a fraction of the time it takes to construct a
concrete tank. This significantly reduces labor costs, project timelines, and the need for heavy, expensive construction
equipment. Furthermore, the modular nature allows for easy future expansion or even relocation, providing unparalleled
flexibility for a growing operation.
4. Low Maintenance and Enhanced Safety: The smooth, glass-like surface of our tanks is resistant to biological and material
adhesion, making cleaning simple and reducing the risk of scum formation and sedimentation. The tanks are also designed
with safety in mind, featuring accessories like manholes, platforms, and maintenance ladders to ensure safe access and
operation.
5. Proven Performance and International Standards: Center Enamel is not just a manufacturer; we are a certified global
partner. Our GFS tanks are designed and manufactured in strict accordance with a host of international standards,
including AWWA D103-09, ISO 28765, NSF/ANSI 61, EN1090, WRAS, and FM. These certifications are a testament to our
engineering excellence and provide our clients with a guarantee of quality, safety, and reliability. We were the first
company in China to produce GFS tanks, and our decades of experience have made us a leader in the industry.
