Latest titanium tanks in operation
In Germany, Hoyer Group engineers pooled their specialist knowledge and developed a new generation of titanium tank containers for highly corrosive dangerous goods. After two years of intensive development work and construction time, two units will be put into operation in January 2021.
The project team made a successful breakthrough by attaching the steel frame to the titanium tank; the ingenious heating system is another achievement. The two new titanium tank containers were developed and built specifically to transport molten monochloroacetic acid.
Hoyer leases the containers to a chemical industry customer with worldwide operations, for which it transports the highly corrosive product at elevated temperatures. (ben)
