When a process line goes down—whether from a leaking vessel, equipment failure, or delayed delivery—every hour of downtime cuts into profitability. In the chemical processing, water treatment, and energy industries, equipment reliability is not an option; it is a necessity. Savannah Tank has been designing and fabricating custom steel tanks, pressure vessels, and all related process equipment for over 30 years, supporting critical industries across the United States and helping them operate safely and efficiently.
The Challenge: Complex Needs Require Custom Solutions
Standard, off-the-shelf tanks often fail to meet real-world industrial conditions. Every factory and process is different, which means each tank needs to be designed with just the right number, size, and location of nozzles and instruments necessary for successful operation. When the process requires mixing or temperature control, further engineering and tank customization will be necessary to ensure safe and efficient operation. It is crucial to choose an experienced steel tank manufacturer, such as Savannah Tank, to ensure the highest level of durability and regulatory compliance for any steel tank system.
Our tanks are designed with the following features:
- Materials of construction include carbon steel, stainless steel, and special alloys.
- Thermal Control: External jackets, such as dimple jackets and half-pipe jackets, as well as internal coils and insulation supports, can be added to help achieve precise temperature management.
- Accessibility & Safety: Ladders, platforms, stairs, catwalks, and handrails available for safe operation and maintenance.
- Surface Finishes: Stainless steel tanks can be cleaned and passivated, with exterior welds pickled. Also, mechanical polishing or electropolishing may be added if necessary. Industrial coating and internal linings are available for steel tanks and can be used to meet process and lifecycle requirements.
- Code Compliance: All design codes (ASME, API, etc.) will be adhered to for all designs.
- Configuration Flexibility: Almost any configuration can be designed and built to meet exact site or process requirements.
- Internal Tank Components: Baffles, spargers, supports, packing, and mixing systems are designed for the greatest possible flow, mixing, and process efficiency.
Every tank is designed, built, and tested to ensure it performs as required, without exception.
