Typical applications are sludge settlement tanks on small sewage treatment plants, concentration of food and agricultural waste for anaerobic digestion, removal of grit for water reuse on effluent treatment plants and concentration of apple mulch after cider fermentation.
Tests carried out in conjunction with Kingston University on 20 year old tanks to the prototype testing procedure of BS4994-1987 have shown that there is no significant loss of mechanical strength in tanks that have been in continuous service in the most arduous of conditions for over 20 years compared with newly made tanks of exactly the same design and construction.
