Fusion Bonded Epoxy Tank for Distillery Wastewater Treatment: Provides superior resistance to the harsh, high-temperature discharge from distilleries.

Fusion Bonded Epoxy Tank for Distillery Wastewater Treatment: Provides superior resistance to the harsh, high-temperature discharge from distilleries.

Distillery wastewater treatment involves managing an extremely challenging effluent, often referred to as spent wash or stillage. This effluent is characterized by an extremely high-temperature discharge, a very high organic load , and a rapidly acidic profile due to the fermentation residues. Containing this aggressive mixture requires a vessel that offers superior resistance to both thermal and chemical attack. The Fusion Bonded Epoxy Tank is specifically engineered to handle this stress profile, providing superior resistance to the harsh, high-temperature discharge from distilleries while ensuring the efficiency of anaerobic and aerobic treatment stages.

The Extreme Conditions of Distillery Discharge

Containment vessels for distillery wastewater are exposed to a severe combination of chemical, thermal, and structural stress:

Extreme Thermal Load : Stillage is often discharged at high temperatures, frequently above and sometimes higher. This high-temperature discharge significantly accelerates chemical corrosion and can cause standard linings to soften, delaminate, or fail, demanding a coating with superior resistance to thermal shock.

Intense Chemical Corrosivity: The residual sugars and alcohol rapidly decompose, generating high concentrations of organic acids $text{VFA}$s. This creates a highly acidic, corrosive environment that relentlessly attacks the tank lining, requiring superior resistance from a chemically inert barrier.

High Structural Load: The wastewater has an extremely high organic load, leading to high-density liquid in large-volume reactors. This necessitates a structurally sound vessel that can manage the immense hydrostatic pressure and support heavy mixing equipment used in high-rate anaerobic digestion.

Biogas Corrosivity: Anaerobic treatment of distillery waste produces large amounts of biogas, including corrosive hydrogen sulfide . The tank must be gas-tight and the lining must have superior resistance to attack in both the liquid and vapor phases.

A reliable system must provide superior resistance to the harsh, high-temperature discharge from distilleries to guarantee longevity and compliance.

The FBE Solution: Superior Resistance for Harsh, High-Temperature Discharge

Center Enamel’s Fusion Bonded Epoxy Bolted Steel Tanks are explicitly engineered to address the critical thermal and chemical demands of distillery wastewater treatment:

Thermal Stability and Superior Resistance: The molecularly bonded coating is a thermoset polymer designed to maintain its physical integrity and chemical adhesion under the sustained operational temperatures of distillery wastewater. This provides superior resistance to the thermal shock and accelerated corrosion caused by the high-temperature discharge.

Permanent Acid and Chemical Protection: The barrier is dense and chemically inert, providing superior resistance against the relentless attack from organic acids $text{VFA}$s and other fermentation byproducts present in the spent wash, ensuring the steel structure remains protected.

High-Integrity Structure: Constructed from high-tensile, factory-engineered steel, tanks offer certified structural strength. They are built to safely manage the massive loads of high-density stillage and the mechanical stress from mixers, providing a superior resistance solution against structural failure.

Optimal for Anaerobic Digestion : The tank's gas-tight seals and internal corrosion resistance make it the ideal, high-integrity vessel for reactors, which are commonly used for energy recovery from distillery wastewater.

Rapid, Cost-Effective Deployment: The modular design allows for extremely fast on-site assembly, minimizing the construction period and quickly establishing the necessary capacity to handle the continuous high-volume discharge from distilleries.

Product Industry Application: FBE Tanks in Distilleries and High-Thermal Industrial Infrastructure

The tank's specialized resistance makes it essential across all stages of distillery wastewater treatment:

Cooling and Equalization Basins: Crucial for stabilizing the high-temperature discharge and flow variability before biological treatment, relying on 's thermal and chemical durability.

Anaerobic Digesters : Serving as the core reactor vessel for treating the high-BOD stillage, requiring superior resistance to both acid and corrosion.

Aeration Basins: Providing robust containment for the aerobic polishing stage, supporting heavy aeration equipment while resisting residual thermal and chemical stress.

Sludge Holding Tanks: Offering durable, secure storage for the concentrated, chemically complex biological and primary sludge.
