The Parker High Efficiency Vertical Bitumen tanks have been designed and developed to be used on sites where space is at a premium. Energy costs are high and trends would suggest a continued rise in the longer term. Within the quarrying industry bitumen storage is a significant contributor to energy usage but due to its secondary nature in the day to day operation of a coating plant it may not always be given the attention it deserves. Therefore when purchasing a new bitumen tank thermal efficiency should be an important consideration in the decision making process. A new Parker High Efficiency Vertical Bitumen Storage Tank can provide significant energy savings and reduce an operation’s carbon footprint. There is an ever increasing focus on the environmental and safety issues surrounding bitumen spillage. Parker ensures its tanks conform to industry best practice guidelines regarding safe handling of bitumen, including safe working capacity, available ullage, accurate contents gauges and high level alarms all of which greatly reduce the risk of spills occurring.
