Working with Water Tanks

Article Category: Education

Author Name: Stefan Deigos

The water tank is an effective solution to the water storage problem. The need for storing water in stable containers is considered as old as civilization itself; anyone would agree water storage is part of civilization. Aside from accommodating storage space, water storage tanks also provide storage for water that will be used for drinking, farming, irrigation, plants and livestock, food preparation, chemical processes and many more purposes as well.

Various materials make up the water storage tank: concrete, plastics (either polyethylene or polypropylene), fiberglass, steel (be it bolted or welded, stainless or carbon) and even earthen ponds. Ground water storage tanks are made of lined carbon steel, making it suitable to receive water from well or surface water sources. It also allows large volumes to be used as inventory especially during peak times. The elevated storage tank type on the other hand, which is characterized by an elevated water tower are best used for both domestic and industrial requirements (granting a discharge pressure of 30 psi is achieved. The elevation creates continuous pressure at ground level outlets of about 1 psi in every 2.31 feet elevation, which means tanks at 70 feet elevation can generate discharge pressures of about 30 psi.

The parameters of the water storage tank are made up of the tank's primary designs the materials used and the following as well:

Water storage tank location , be it indoors, outdoors, underground or above the ground
- How much water will the tank hold efficiently in the long term
- What the water in storage is used for
- Water storage temperature (with an emphasis on water freezing issues)
- Water pressure requirements, with domestic pressures ranging from 35-60 psi

How the water in the storage will be extracted and delivered

Earthquake and wind design considerations that allow tanks to stand up to high wind and seismic events.
Prevention of back flow instances
Chemical injection treatment to address virus and bacteria control

In the case of fire water tanks, horizontal truck designs or the trailer mounted water trucks are designed to bring water to remote fire locations or act as stationary tanks that provide water on standby especially in cases when fire hydrants are not made available anywhere near the vicinity. The vertical dome top tank type with its cylindrical design is able to hold water volumes anywhere from fifty to millions of gallons. Another variety, the horizontal cylindrical tanks are primarily designed for transport, creating a gravity low center to assist transport vehicles maintain equilibrium throughout the travel.

By its design principles, the water storage tank/container itself should not affect or worse, contaminate the water stored inside it. Water, as we are all very aware of, is susceptible to various ambient negative influences that include bacteria, algae, viruses, pH changes, accumulated gas and of minerals. The best water tank designs available should work to address the issue and mitigate all the negative effects that pose risks.
