Product Description
The 20 Gallon Chem-Tainer Acid Neutralization Tank is a versatile, durable solution for above-ground chemical storage, mixing, and containment.
These tanks have years of proven suitability in handling tough effluents. Our line of tanks are designed to withstand the heat of neutralization and the corrosive attack of acids, alkalies, toxics, or other types of chemical waste.
Measuring 36" Diameter x 48" Height, it provides reliable performance in demanding environments.
MATERIAL OPTIONS
- Polyethylene (PE) — Part No.: TC3648KA
- Polypropylene (PP) — Part No.: TC3648KB
FEATURES
- Seamless, one-piece molded and heavy-walled construction
- Designed for safe containment and handling of corrosive substances such as acids and caustics
- Compliance with U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 (C) 3.1 and 3.2 for the resin used
- Exceptional chemical and impact resistance for prolonged, reliable service
- Open-top design for convenient mixing and filling
- Self-supporting for stability and ease of use
- Translucent material for quick visibility of content levels
- Operating temperature: up to 140°F (PE) / 212°F (PP)
MATERIAL SELECTION GUIDANCE (PE vs. PP)
Both options share the same tank size and design features. The key difference is resin type:
- Polyethylene (PE) — TC3648KA: typically selected for general-purpose chemical storage where toughness and impact resistance are priorities.
- Polypropylene (PP) — TC3648KB: typically selected when a stiffer material is preferred and when resin-specific chemical compatibility is required.
Recommendation: choose based on chemical compatibility first, then handling/environmental demands.
