Considering the contents of storage tanks in the petrochemical industry, it’s vital that they remain structurally sound for the sake of public health and safety, as well as the environment. The petrochemical industry often uses steel to hold and protect its products because of its strength. As a metal, steel is vulnerable to the damaging effects of corrosion, necessitating the need for protective coatings on tank surfaces. The success of these coatings largely relies on the quality of the environment in which such projects are performed.
