Poly Processing

Sodium hydroxide is a “slippery” chemical that will find even the smallest leak path in a storage tank. It’s highly corrosive to human tissue, toxic if ingested, and must be handled with extreme care. Learn more about caustic soda storage challenges: hubs.la/Q0459sQm0

Nitric acid is essential across industries, but its corrosive nature demands proper storage. Learn why crosslinked polyethylene tanks are key and explore its main uses. Read more: hubs.la/Q04779Qf0

Chemical fume scrubbers capture, neutralize, and safely exhaust vapors that pose health, safety, or environmental risks. They prevent hazardous fumes from entering the air while still allowing proper tank venting and pressure control. Learn more: hubs.la/Q044vw3r0

Sulfuric acid is one of the most widely used chemicals in the U.S. This heavy, corrosive chemical requires a specifically designed storage system. That’s why Poly Processing follow guidelines that help ensure safety & enhanced useful tank life. Read more: hubs.la/Q046cdXC0

Ferric chloride is unforgiving when storage systems are not properly designed. Working with an experienced manufacturer such as Poly Processing helps ensure ferric chloride storage systems are specified correctly from the start. Read more: hubs.la/Q041q2CM0

Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) is widely used to adjust pH in water & wastewater treatment. But its hazardous properties demand storage systems engineered specifically for safe, long-term chemical containment. Learn more: hubs.la/Q0459xbh0

Wastewater sludge is the solid material left behind after wastewater treatment. Proper sludge removal is critical to prevent harmful buildup, protect equipment, and keep treatment systems operating safely and efficiently. Learn more about sludge removal: hubs.la/Q041pnjM0

Chemicals stored in polyethylene tanks require proper venting. Some fumes can’t be released directly into the atmosphere. To reduce emissions and control air pollution, a properly designed chemical fume scrubber is essential. Learn more: hubs.la/Q044vtq00

One of the most underestimated threats to a chemical storage tank’s lifespan is “cycling” - the repeated filling and emptying of tanks. Over time, this thermal and mechanical stress can lead to premature failure. Learn more: hubs.la/Q041p4B_0

Ferric chloride is effective, economical, and widely used, but unforgiving when storage systems aren’t properly designed. Matching tank materials, fittings, design, and containment to the application helps reduce maintenance costs and avoid downtime. hubs.la/Q041q2190

Small adjustments in tank material, wall thickness, fitting design, flexible connections, venting, & gasket selection can make a difference in long-term savings by reducing maintenance costs, improving operational efficiency, and extending tank life. hubs.la/Q041p8SZ0

The wastewater treatment cycle encompasses five fundamental stages. This guide focuses on the crucial final stage: sludge removal and the specialized chemicals that make it possible. Learn more about wastewater treatment and sludge removal: hubs.la/Q041pm9w0
