Pontoon type internal floating roofs
Typically atmospheric storage tanks have contributed significantly to emissions of volatile organic hydrocarbons (VOC’s). When our society developed an understanding of the economic aspects and environmental impact being the result of these emissions several products were developed to reduce emissions. At the basis and forefront of these developments was the internal floating roof. By covering major part of the liquid surface and through an effective seal the emission reduction by installing an internal floating roof is in excess of 90%. Also the API committee has acknowledged the importance and relevance of this development by maintaining a standard for internal floating roofs (API 650 Appendix H).
We supply a widely reknown pontoon type internal floating roof,which is one of the best available. Our long list of references for this type of internal floating roofs is a good indication for the consistency of the qualitiy we supply
Different seal types can be used with our internal floating roofs including wiper seals and shoe plate seals
