Chemical dosing applications typically involve the dosing of an exact amount of chemical into a larger volume of liquid. The chemical could be an additive, reagent or a treatment to alter the pH value or concentration of the liquid. Dosing…

Back in the 1960’s, we designed and built our first chemical storage tanks from thermoplastic sheets. At this time alternative materials and formats were still in development, but basic principles will tell you that using flat sheet to create storage tank cylinders comes with challenges.

Fume scrubbers, also known as gas or air scrubbers, have a critical role in removing harmful emissions from industrial applications and protecting human health and the environment. Wet and dry fume scrubbing techniques exist, with wet scrubbing being particularly effective at removing a broad range of both pollutants, including acidic gases, alkalis and particles.

As we enter our 60^th Anniversary year, we discuss with MD, Simon Hewitt what’s driven Chem Resist’s longevity and ongoing success.

“We have 3 foundation stones at Chem Resist; our understanding of thermoplastics, experience of corrosive and aggressive chemicals and our ethos, best explained by ‘Built with Integrity’ which despite being relatively new, is fundamentally what we’re all about.

Sulphuric Acid (US spelling, Sulfuric Acid), chemically known as H₂SO₄, is a highly corrosive, odourless and colourless mineral acid created by a mix of sulphur, oxygen and hydrogen using the contact process.

We’ve had another year of growth; designing and manufacturing more large tanks, continuing our mission to protect open tanker offload points and using a lot of pipe!

See what else has been happening and what we have coming up…

A fundamental principle of being more sustainable is using the assets we have for as long as possible; maximising their operational life not only means we get best value but that we invest in any replacement at the most appropriate time, preserving budgets, materials and the planet.

At Chem Resist, we pride ourselves on the integrity of our plastic chemical storage tanks. Each of the thermoplastic chemical storage tanks we design and build come with a 20-year design life as standard – with regular, routine maintenance, they can operate way beyond this.

There are several areas of your organisation that could be damaged as a result of a loss of containment incident, including your reputation and site, in addition to the immediate impact on production and your customers.

Finding the right pumps and valves to integrate into your chemical transfer and storage system is vital to ensure the required performance, highest efficiency and safety standards are both met and maintained.
