Key Features
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio – The spherical design evenly distributes stress, allowing thinner walls while maintaining durability.
- Pressure Resistance – Ideal for storing high-pressure substances like propane, butane, and ammonia.
- Corrosion Resistance – Made from high-grade steel or aluminum with protective coatings.
- Space Efficiency – Requires less ground space compared to cylindrical tanks.
Industrial Applications
- Oil & Gas – Stores LNG, LPG, and compressed natural gas (CNG).
- Chemical Industry – Holds corrosive or volatile chemicals safely.
- Power Plants – Used for steam storage and nuclear reactor containment.
- Water Treatment – Stores purified water under pressure for municipal use.
