Process of GLS / Glass-Fused To Steel (GFS) Tanks

For agricultural, industrial, and municipal purposes, the GLS tanks are frequently used. Glass is fused with steel to enhance the latter's properties. Fusion is necessary because single steel is for environmental conditions. Glass Bonded to Steel is the ideal solution with the benefits from both materials. The steel is known for its high strength and flexibility. Such tanks are known for their excellent performance against corrosion.

Why are glass-fused to steel tanks highly favored?

Because of its excellent features such as maintenance free design, temperature tolerant, hygienic surface and long service lives, the Glass-Fused to steel tanks is highly favored. The glass of these tanks helps to avoid corrosion, while steel retains its exceptional strength and durability. On the other side, glass fused tanks in steel are considered to be abrasion and impact-resistant, no bacteria can be seen on the surface of these tanks.

GFS Tanks with Integrated Membrane System

For various applications including mass storage, oil storage tanks, fire protection tanks, water and wastewater treatment, storage and digester, the glass-fused steel tank is widely requested. These tanks can be easily combined with other equipment, reused, transferred and extended. It is known for its wear and scratch quality, as these tanks can be easily mounted at the appropriate spot.

Such GFS Tanks, due to their low maintenance costs, are popular for providing safe and stable storage. As fused-glass steel tanks, the facility is cost-effective and efficient, helping decrease the project sizes, expense and the need for on-site equipment. Glass fused to steel technology has a greater performance in delivering an outstanding value for life compared with soldered or concrete tanks. These tanks are suitable for quick storage of different materials and fluids.

GFS Tanks with Glass Fused to Steel Plate Roof

Step by step GLS/GFS tanks process:

Many steps are necessary in order to produce high-quality panels. Growing step in the production process is given equal importance in order to meet high standards. The production processes like laser gun, deburring, brushing, paint, enamel, inspection and packaging are completed in a total of seven stages.

&#; LASER: The raw sheets are cut using a laser.

&#; DEBURRING: the edges of the sheets can be rounded according to customer requirements.

&#; BRUSHING-BENDING: The sheets are all brushed and then prepared for processing the enamel.

&#; POWDER: This is the method that in electrostatic processes mixes the powder with the coarse sheets.

&#; ENAMEL: Powder and raw sheet combine in this phase the high-performance oven roughly. 800 ° C to help to build the surface that is resistant to corrosion.

&#; INSPECTION: Once the furnace is completed, a complete pores inspection and a thorough visual inspection is carried out on the stand.

&#; PACKAGING: Edge protection is added before packaging the panels as transport safety. The panel packages for different projects are then commissioned.

GLS / GFS TANKS

Glass-Alloy-to-steel (HFS), also known as Glass-Align-steel (GLS) and liquid storage tanks, in this glass is fused with steel tanks by using a unique technology, these materials are melted together at high temperature, resulting in an amazing physical and chemical examination stability of the tank. The GLS/GFS tanks have been proven from many decades on hundreds of installations and are supported by international standards that cover design and finish requirements. The GLS/GFS tanks are Corrosion resistance and are suitable for wastewater treatment, wastewater treatment, and effluent treatment.

GLS/GFS tanks are a leading solution that combines the advantages of both materials &#; strength, and the flexibility of steel and the high corrosion resistance of glass. These tanks give a perfect anti-corrosion performance. Along with excellent anti-corrosion performance, these tanks are smooth, cohesionless, and have anti-bacterial property. They are also resistant to scratches and have high inertia, high acidity/alkalinity tolerance. 

They can be installed very quickly having the best qualities like counter-design. They get affected by local weather but are very safe and skill-free which in turn results in no need for long-term employee training. Its maintenance cost is very low, and they are very easy to get repaired. GLS/GFS tanks can be combined with other technologies and can be easily reused, relocated, and expanded along with having a beautiful appearance.

Glass fused to steel tanks, a combination of steel and glass anti-corrosion quality, results in greater corrosion resistance with more than 40 years of service life. Below over-temperature fusion of 850 degrees, the glass is fused to steel panels perfectly and deeply. Comparing to other tanks like concrete tanks, welded steel tanks, storage tanks, and GLS/GFS tanks are easy to install and build, and it takes very little time for construction.

Perfectly fusing glass and steel, the GLS/GFS tanks can resist the PH range from 1 to 14. Glass-fused-to-steel is a premium technology present in the market of tanks. The tank is assembled with a specially designed enameled steel plate to get high level corrosion resistance, flexibility and durability in construction areas. Based on high productivity, it is widely used in the biogas project, wastewater treatment project, industrial storage industry, agricultural and fermentation industry in the world. 

Fast and Cost-Effective Installation reduces design time, costs and requirements for on-site equipment. Tanks can be expanded, dismantled, and rebuilt, giving long-term asset value. Optimum Corrosion Resistance of Glass-Fused to Steel provides safe and secure storage, with minimal maintenance costs.

The tank sheet edges are coated with the same enameled material in order to avoid dissimilar metal electrolysis, rust-resistant and weakening enamel bonding. A titanium alloy steel plate, which is specially made for the enameling process. These tanks provide exceptional physical performance, eliminates any defects in fish scales.

These tanks are the front-runnerin the list of water storage solutions and are largely used as mud storage tanks, sewage storage tanks for biogas plant, mud treatment facility. Glass-Melt-to-Steel (GFS), also known as Glass-Line-Steel (GLS) and liquid storage tanks, these names all mean the same thing. The tank panels are fused completely with a glass enamel which gets attached to the metal giving several benefits over standard epoxy coating or welded painted storage tanks. The coating application system offers improved tank longevity, longer tank life cycle, better corrosion resistance, and finish thickness are improved.

GLS/GFS Tanks have a product life of not less than 40 years and are affordable with a low capital cost. They show high performance and durability and are strong enough against cracking and impacts. They are used for potable water storage, wastewater treatment, farm bio-energy, agricultural dry bulk storage and many other application areas with Welded Steel GFS tanks, Coated Steel GLS (Glass Lined to Steel) tanks and Enamel tanks.
