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.
