Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Sulfuric acid tank-size threshold | Any Poly Processing tank under 11,000 gallons and under 15 feet tall qualifies for sulfuric acid storage (Sloped IMFO, IMFO, Vertical, or SAFE-Tank) | Poly Processing — Chemical-Specific Storage Guidance |
| Hydrofluoric acid tank construction | XLPE baseline: 20x the environmental stress-crack resistance, 10x the molecular weight, 5x the impact/tensile strength of HDPE, full 5-year warranty; SAFE-Tank preferred for HF | Poly Processing — Chemical-Specific Storage Guidance |
| Snyder sulfuric acid resin | Dedicated sulfuric acid resin #880046 available across Vertical, Horizontal, and Chemical Feed Station tank families | Snyder Industries — Industrial Tanks & Fittings |
| Snyder sodium hypochlorite resin | Dedicated opaque white sodium hypochlorite resin #880059 (UV block-out) available up to 12,500 gal | Snyder Industries — Industrial Tanks & Fittings |
Chemical processing plants routinely store multiple incompatible chemistries in the same tank farm, and the material call isn't interchangeable between them — sulfuric acid carries Poly Processing's only unconditional containment mandate, while hydrofluoric acid gets XLPE as a hard baseline purely for its stress-crack resistance. Most suppliers sell what you ask for; Liberty CES determines what the application actually requires, chemical by chemical.
