Compared with steel tanks and concrete tanks, FRP tanks have many excellent characteristics, such as corrosion resistance, long service life, low cost and convenient maintenance. At present, it has been widely used in petroleum, chemical industry and many other fields. Its specific application is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Oil field

China's oilfields began to use FRP storage tanks in the late 1980s. Many large oilfields in China, such as Zhongyuan Oilfield, Changqing Oilfield and Shengli Oilfield, have used wound FRP storage tanks. Other oilfields have gradually realized the excellent characteristics of FRP storage tanks and increasingly use FRP storage tanks. In general, the use of FRP tanks in the oilfield industry is increasing year by year. China's underground oil tanks will be gradually replaced by FRP tanks. The market prospect in this regard is very broad.

2. Chemical industry

The chemical industry has very high requirements for the corrosion resistance of storage tanks. In the process of use, storage tanks made of steel and other materials are prone to quality accidents because they can not solve the corrosion problem well. At present, FRP tanks are used in domestic chemical industry, such as 100 m3 hydrochloric acid tank of an enterprise in Mudanjiang; A complete set of FRP large storage tanks in an enterprise in Jiangxi; Large FRP storage tanks of an enterprise in Yantai.

3. FRP transport tank

FRP transportation tanks are used for the transportation of automobiles and trains, mainly transporting liquid or gaseous corrosive chemical media. The volume of automobile transportation storage tank is generally 2-12 cubic meters, and the volume of train transportation storage tank is generally 30-50 cubic meters. The surface of FRP transportation storage tank is smooth, easy to clean, high strength and low thermal conductivity. It is suitable for the transportation of various corrosive chemicals such as acid, alkali and salt.
