Chemical Tank & ISO Container Handling

Service Details

ISO tank containers are intermodal containers built to ISO standards, primarily constructed from stainless steel and surrounded by protective layers. They are used for transporting both hazardous and non-hazardous liquids, gases, and powders. Their design allows for seamless transition between different modes of transport, such as road, rail, and sea.

🔹 Key Features:

 
  • Pre-Use Inspection

    • Conduct thorough inspections for structural integrity, cleanliness, and absence of residues from previous cargo.

    • Verify that all valves, seals, and safety devices are functioning correctly.

  • Loading and Unloading

    • Ensure compatibility between the tank material and the chemical being transported.

    • Use proper grounding techniques to prevent static discharge.

    • Adhere to filling limits to avoid overfilling or underfilling, which can lead to safety hazards.

  • Temperature and Pressure Control

    • Monitor and maintain appropriate temperature and pressure levels during transit to preserve cargo integrity.

    • Regularly inspect pressure relief valves and temperature indicators for proper operation.

  • Cleaning and Sanitization

    • Implement rigorous cleaning protocols between different cargoes to prevent contamination.

    • Obtain cleanliness certificates from certified third-party inspectors before loading new cargo.

  • Documentation and Compliance

    • Maintain accurate records of inspections, maintenance, and cargo details.

    • Ensure compliance with international regulations such as IMDG, ADR, and DOT standards.

🔹 Maintenance and Safety Measures

 
  • Routine Maintenance

  • Emergency Preparedness

    • Develop and practice emergency response plans for potential spills, leaks, or accidents.

    • Equip personnel with appropriate training and safety equipment to handle emergencies effectively.

Proper handling of chemical tanks and ISO containers is crucial for the safe and efficient transport of chemical products. Adhering to established procedures and regulations minimizes risks to personnel, the environment, and the integrity of the cargo.
