Many of these oil tanks were installed at the time the buildings were built in the 1940's, 1950's, 1960's and 1970's and they are much larger than doors, stairs and hallways connecting their location to the outside. With age these tanks can deteriorate and leak fuel oil into the ground. New technologies now make it easy and cost efficient to refurbish these tanks in place, saving thousands of dollars in replacement costs and virtually eliminating potential pollution problems.

Each year thousands of aboveground and underground steel tanks develop corrosion permeations that allow their contained liquids to escape into the environment. Depending on the product and where it ends up, the outcome can have disastrous consequences. The vast majority of these tank problems develop at or near the bottom of these tanks.

Some steel tanks with interior linings and some fiberglass tanks may have component materials that are not compatible with these newer blended fuels. New tank lining technologies can upgrade some fiberglass tanks and lined steel tanks saving tank owners thousands of dollars in replacement costs. (PRWeb Jul 25, 2004)

As double-wall steel tanks, such as the STiP-3 design, grow older they can develop corrosion-based permeations through their primary containment shell into the interstitial space. The result is product in the interstitial space, with the probability of an alarm occurrence. This is an easily corrected condition that can be repaired with the Armor Shield processes, which also guard against further internal corrosion problems. Contact Armor Shield customer service at (888) 839-0373 for further information. http://www.armorshieldlining.com (PRWeb May 4, 2004)
