Glass-Fused to Steel Tanks are Safeguarding Drinking Water Quality
Access to clean and safe drinking water is a fundamental human right and a crucial aspect of public health. To ensure the delivery of high-quality drinking water to communities, it is essential to have reliable storage solutions that protect against contamination and maintain water quality. Glass-fused to Steel (GFS) tanks have emerged as an exceptional choice for drinking water storage, offering unmatched durability, hygiene, and corrosion resistance.
What is Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks(GFS Tanks)?
After firing at 820°C-930°C high temperature, the molten glass reacts with the steel plate surface to form an inert and inorganic bond, which combines the strength and flexibility of steel and outstanding corrosion resistance of glass, so Center Enamel Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks can provide many advantages over standard epoxy or welded painted storage tanks. Glass-Fused-to-Steel technology is the premium coating technology in the storage tanks market. and Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co.,Ltd Glass Fused to Steel tanks (GFS tanks)conform to AWWA D103-09, OSHA, ISO 28765, NSF/ANSI 61, NFPA and other international standards , and are widely used in bio-energy, municipal sewage, landfill leachate and industrial wastewater treatment etc. Applications

Advantages of Glass-Fused to Steel Tanks for Drinking Water Storage
Corrosion Resistance: One of the primary advantages of GFS tanks is their remarkable resistance to corrosion. The glass-fused coating creates an impermeable barrier, preventing contact between the stored water and the tank's steel substrate. This ensures that the water remains free from contaminants and maintains its high-quality standards.
Hygienic Properties: The smooth, non-porous surface of GFS tanks is easy to clean and maintain, making it ideal for storing drinking water. This surface prevents the growth of harmful bacteria, ensuring the water's purity.
Durability: GFS tanks are known for their structural strength and ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, seismic activity, and UV radiation. This ensures the longevity of the tank and the preservation of water quality.
Customization: GFS tanks can be customized to accommodate various sizes and capacities, making them adaptable to specific community needs. They can also be easily expanded or relocated if necessary.
Applications of Glass-Fused to Steel Tanks in Drinking Water Storage
Glass-Fused to Steel tanks find numerous applications in the storage and distribution of drinking water:
Municipal Water Supply: Many municipalities use GFS tanks to store and maintain a constant supply of clean and safe drinking water for their residents.
Rural and Remote Communities: In rural and remote areas, where access to clean water is challenging, GFS tanks provide a reliable solution to store and distribute drinking water.
Emergency and Disaster Relief: GFS tanks can be rapidly deployed in emergency situations, such as natural disasters or humanitarian crises, to provide clean drinking water to affected populations.
Industrial and Commercial Facilities: GFS tanks are also used in industrial and commercial facilities to store and distribute potable water for various purposes, including manufacturing and sanitation.
