Steel: Widely used due to its durability and strength. Different steel grades offer varying levels of corrosion resistance based on the stored material. It can be coated or lined to prevent corrosion and is suitable for a wide range of temperatures and pressures.
Concrete: Preferred for large tanks that store water, sewage, and certain chemicals. Concrete offers good structural integrity and fire resistance and it is advantageous in terms of cost for large volumes.
Polyethylene and Fiberglass: These are used for chemically resistant tanks or water tanks in small to medium sizes, offering excellent resistance to corrosion. However, they may not be suitable for high-pressure applications.
Stainless Steel: Used for tanks that store aggressive chemicals or food products due to its corrosion resistance and non-reactive properties compared to regular steel.
