Center Enamel Delivers Robust Glass-Fused-to-Steel Wastewater Tank for Turkey Wastewater Project
Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd (Center Enamel), a globally recognized leader in advanced bolted storage solutions, is proud to announce the successful completion and full operational status of a critical wastewater tank project in Turkey. This significant infrastructure development, completed in July 2025, underscores Center Enamel's commitment to providing highly durable and efficient solutions for modern wastewater management challenges worldwide.
The increasing focus on environmental protection and public health has made effective wastewater treatment paramount in Turkey, as in many other nations. Municipalities and industries are continuously seeking robust, long-lasting, and low-maintenance solutions to handle the diverse demands of wastewater collection, treatment, and storage. It is precisely these needs that Center Enamel's Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) tanks are designed to meet.
Project Details at a Glance:
Application: Wastewater tank
Project Location: Turkey
Tank Size: φ21.39 * 8.4M(H) (1 Set)
Total Tank Volume: 3016m³
Completion: Finished in July 2025, with construction completed and the project now fully operational
This substantial tank, boasting a capacity of 3016m³, now serves as a vital component of Turkey's wastewater infrastructure, contributing to efficient and environmentally responsible water management in the region.
The Unrivaled Advantage of Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) for Wastewater Applications
The choice of a Glass-Fused-to-Steel tank for this critical project in Turkey was a strategic decision, leveraging the inherent benefits of Center Enamel's pioneering technology. GFS tanks, also known as Glass-Lined Steel (GLS) tanks, are renowned for their exceptional performance in demanding environments like wastewater treatment facilities.
The core of GFS technology lies in its unique manufacturing process. Steel plates are meticulously pre-treated and then coated with a specialized glass enamel. These components are then fired at an extremely high temperature, typically between 820°C and 930°C. This intense heat causes the molten glass to chemically react with the steel surface, forming an incredibly strong, inert, and inorganic bond. This fusion creates a composite material that combines the strength and structural integrity of steel with the superior chemical resistance of glass.
For wastewater applications, this translates into a host of crucial advantages:
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Wastewater contains a complex mixture of organic and inorganic compounds, often leading to highly corrosive environments. The fused glass surface of a GFS tank acts as an impenetrable barrier, resisting corrosion from a wide range of chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and gases produced during decomposition. This ensures the tank's longevity and minimizes the risk of leaks or structural degradation over time.
Durable and Long-Lasting Performance: Designed for a service life exceeding 30 years, GFS tanks offer a long-term, low-maintenance solution. Their robust construction can withstand the continuous demands of wastewater storage, providing reliable containment without the need for frequent recoating or extensive repairs common with traditional concrete or epoxy-coated tanks.
Hygienic and Easy to Clean: The smooth, glossy, and non-porous surface of the glass lining inhibits the growth of bacteria, algae, and the adhesion of sludge. This significantly reduces the frequency and complexity of cleaning, leading to lower operational costs and improved sanitation within the facility.
Rapid and Cost-Effective Installation: Center Enamel's GFS tanks are designed with a modular, bolted construction. This allows for swift and efficient assembly on-site, drastically reducing construction timelines and labor costs. The timely completion of the Turkey project in July 2025 stands as a testament to this installation efficiency.
Watertight Integrity: The precision engineering and high-quality sealing systems employed in GFS tanks ensure a completely watertight structure, preventing any leakage of wastewater into the surrounding environment and maintaining the integrity of the treatment process.
Environmental Responsibility: The durability and long lifespan of GFS tanks contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing material waste and the need for frequent replacements. The inert glass lining also ensures no harmful substances leach into the stored wastewater, aligning with strict environmental regulations.
Center Enamel: A Trusted Partner in Global Wastewater Solutions
This successful project in Turkey further solidifies Center Enamel's reputation as a trusted global partner for vital water and wastewater infrastructure. Our GFS tanks are manufactured in accordance with stringent international standards, including ISO9001, NSF61, CE/EN1090, ISO28765, WRAS, and FM, guaranteeing the highest levels of quality, safety, and performance.
From municipal sewage treatment plants and industrial effluent storage to anaerobic digesters and leachate tanks, Center Enamel's Glass-Fused-to-Steel solutions provide the foundational strength and reliability required for sustainable water resource management.
The completion of the Turkey Wastewater Project marks another milestone in Center Enamel's ongoing mission to support communities and industries worldwide with superior bolted tank technology. We are proud to contribute to Turkey's efforts in modernizing its wastewater treatment capabilities and safeguarding its environment for future generations.
