Bulk Storage

PURPLAN combines precise planning and technical expertise to develop high-quality tank farms. Our complex tank farms are used to store and process large quantities of liquid substances for the polyurethane and synthetic resin industry.

From the initial design in the computer software to the finished final configuration, our employees work with the utmost precision to guarantee the best quality for your customized tank farms. PURPLAN tank farms are designed for all materials, applications and positions.

We work closely with you throughout the entire tank farm construction process so that we can advise and support you with the highest level of technical expertise, extensive flexibility and comprehensive service in the construction of individual tank farms in accordance with all standards and regulations.

• ANA safety devices: Attention emergency stop systems are emptying devices with an attention button and emergency stop function, which are suitable for preventing large quantities of water-polluting liquids from escaping when filling tank containers.
• Transfer stations: They are an area or facility within a tank system that is used to transfer liquids from one container to another. Refilling and transfer stations are based on water law regulations and the German Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health.
• Container stations: Container stations enable the optimum preconditioning of PUR components and the automatic filling of daily containers.
• Pigging systems: The systems support the emptying of a pipe using a fitting body.
• Insulation: Insulations in tank farms minimize the heat exchange between the individual components so that heat is neither lost nor added undesirably.
• Agitators: Inside the tank farm there is a motor with a rotating agitator which ensures the homogeneity of the ingredients in the tank.
• Temperature control systems: These systems are used to regulate the temperature of the contents of the tank farm to ensure optimal conditions or chemical reactions.

Tank farms, such as polyurethane tank farms, are usually in operation for several decades. The components of the tank farms can wear out due to constant use, which can lead to leaks and other safety deficits for people and the environment. New requirements in use and safety regulations as well as modern and improved usage practices and important environmental protection standards also require the refurbishment of tank farms.

To ensure additional safety for facilities storing raw materials for polyurethane production and to prevent a tank farm explosion (detonation) or vacuum-induced implosion, we carry out overpressure/underpressure protection. This protects your tank farms from impermissibly high or low pressure while at the same time protecting the storage medium from atmospheric influences.

We at PURPLAN are happy to support you in bringing your system up to date and securing it cost-effectively and with simple operation. In doing so, we always ensure that all current regulations and laws are implemented to guarantee maximum safety and functionality.
