Center Enamel, a leading enterprise in wastewater treatment project and equipment manufacturing, has been at the forefront of wastewater treatment for over 30 years. Partnering with global coatings leader AkzoNobel, Center Enamel has pioneered advanced epoxy coating technology for tanks. Today we explore how epoxy coated tanks are revolutionizing wastewater treatment systems, highlighting their benefits, applications, and the innovative technology behind them.
Why Epoxy Coated Tanks Are Essential for Wastewater Treatment
Epoxy coated tanks are a transformative solution in wastewater treatment, offering exceptional performance and durability. The advanced epoxy coating technology, developed through the collaboration between Center Enamel and AkzoNobel, provides superior corrosion resistance and longevity. Applied using electrostatic spray technology, this coating ensures uniform protection. Key features of these tanks include:
- Corrosion Resistance: Epoxy coatings serve as a robust barrier against harsh chemicals and corrosive elements in wastewater.
- Durability: The technology significantly extends the lifespan of tanks by preventing rust and deterioration.
- Compliance: These tanks adhere to stringent standards such as AWWA D103-09 and ISO 9227 / ASTM B117.
- Efficient Packaging and Shipping: Optimized packaging and shipping processes help reduce costs and streamline logistics.

Key Benefits of Epoxy Coated Tanks in Wastewater Treatment
Epoxy coated tanks play a crucial role in various stages of wastewater treatment, offering several advantages:
- Raw Wastewater Storage: Ideal for storing raw, untreated wastewater, epoxy coated tanks protect against aggressive substances, ensuring extended tank life.
- Chemical Treatment and Neutralization: These tanks safely store chemicals for pH adjustment and neutralization, maintaining tank integrity and ensuring effective treatment.
- Sludge Storage and Handling: Designed to withstand abrasive and corrosive conditions, epoxy coated tanks efficiently manage and store sludge, minimizing maintenance needs.
- Final Effluent Storage: After treatment, epoxy coated tanks ensure that the final effluent remains uncontaminated, meeting safety standards before discharge or reuse.
