TANK<br />
CONTAINER<br />
Tank containers are used for the<br />
shipment of gases or liquids, they are<br />
often used for the transportation of<br />
hazardous cargoes such as fuel and toxic<br />
substances. Tank containers must be<br />
filled to a minimum of 80% capacity and<br />
must not exceed 95% capacity, this is to<br />
allow sufficient space for thermal<br />
expansion whilst preventing dangerous<br />
surging of the liquids in transit. They are<br />
mostly made of strong steel or other<br />
anti corrosive materials providing them<br />
with long life and protection to the<br />
materials.
