Water Storage Tanks for Farm Irrigation by Center Enamel: Durable, Efficient, and Sustainable Solutions for Global Agriculture
Water management is critical to successful farming. Reliable water storage tanks enable farms to capture, store, and efficiently use water for irrigation—boosting crop yields, reducing water waste, and enhancing sustainability. Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd, operating globally under Center Enamel, specializes in manufacturing premium water storage tanks tailored for agricultural irrigation. Leveraging advanced Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) technology and other robust materials, Center Enamel delivers flexible, high-quality tanks trusted by farmers worldwide
Importance of Water Storage Tanks in Farm IrrigationIn many regions, water supply for farming is unpredictable and unevenly distributed seasonally. Effective water storage tanks:
· Allow capture and preservation of rainwater and surface water resources.
· Ensure a steady supply of irrigation water during dry spells.
· Reduce dependency on groundwater extraction and costly external sources.
· Enable precision irrigation practices using stored water, conserving resources.
· Protect water quality for healthy crops and soil.
Integrating well-designed water storage tanks is essential for building resilient irrigation systems supporting food security and sustainable agriculture.
Center Enamel Glass-Fused-to-Steel (GFS) Tanks for Agricultural UseGFS technology combines the structural strength of steel with the corrosion resistance of molten glass enamel fused at temperatures above 820°C. Core features include:
· Durable, smooth, and non-porous interior surface maintaining water hygiene.
· Resin-strong steel substrate for robust mechanical performance.
· Resistance to corrosive agricultural chemicals and UV exposure.
· Modular bolted panel construction enabling scalable and rapid onsite assembly.
· Compliance with ISO 9001, NSF/ANSI 61, WRAS, ISO 28765, and other key certifications.
Specifications:
· Steel plate size: 2400mm x 1200mm panels.
· Plate thickness: Typically 3mm to 12mm based on tank size.
· Glass enamel coating: 0.25mm to 0.45mm thickness on both sides.
· pH resistance range: Standard 3 to 11; special coatings cover 1 to 14.
· Service life: Over 30 years with minimal maintenance.
· Color options include coastal blue, forest green, desert tan, and customizable hues.
Other Tank Types Offered by Center EnamelWhile GFS tanks are ideal for durability and longevity, other options address various needs:
· Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) Coated Steel Tanks: Cost-effective corrosion protection with good chemical resistance.
· Galvanized Steel Tanks: Affordable and suitable for less aggressive environments, require regular maintenance.
Design Considerations for Farm Irrigation Water TanksProper design optimizes water storage efficiency:
· Capacity Determination: Based on farm size, crop type, expected irrigation demand, rainfall patterns, and water source reliability.
· Site Selection: Near irrigation zones and pumps to minimize energy and piping costs.
· Foundation Engineering: Stable, level concrete pads or ring foundations supporting tank weight and preventing soil erosion.
· Roofing Options: Fixed roofs for contamination protection, floating roofs for evaporation control.
· Instrumentation: Level sensors and control systems for water management automation.
Applications and Use CasesCenter Enamel’s tanks have been used in a wide range of agricultural settings:
· Large-scale commercial farms storing thousands of cubic meters for multi-season irrigation.
· Small and medium farms improving resilience with modular, scalable storage solutions.
