Why Glass-Lined-to-Steel Tanks for Anaerobic Digesters?
1. Corrosion Resistance
The glass coating fused to steel forms a robust, inert barrier that provides exceptional resistance to corrosion caused by the acidic and alkaline environments often present in anaerobic digestion processes.
2. Structural Strength
The combination of steel’s tensile strength and glass’s chemical stability ensures a durable structure capable of withstanding internal pressure, varying temperatures, and demanding operational conditions.
3. Energy Efficiency
Designed for biogas production, GLS tanks facilitate optimal anaerobic digestion processes, ensuring maximum biogas yield while reducing energy consumption during operation.
4. Sustainability
These tanks contribute to a circular economy by converting organic waste into biogas, a renewable energy source, and treating wastewater to protect the environment.

Applications of GLS Tanks in Biogas and Wastewater Treatment
Biogas Production
GLS tanks serve as anaerobic digesters to convert organic waste, such as agricultural residue, food waste, and industrial by-products, into biogas. The biogas can then be utilized as a renewable energy source for power generation, heating, or transportation fuel.
Wastewater Treatment
GLS tanks are used in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment plants for:
Anaerobic digestion of sludge.
Storage and processing of treated effluent.
Efficient removal of organic pollutants.
Advantages of Center Enamel’s GLS Tanks
1. Low Maintenance
The glass coating minimizes the need for maintenance, ensuring lower operational costs over the tank's lifecycle.
2. Enhanced Biogas Yield
The airtight design and optimal insulation of the tanks create ideal conditions for anaerobic bacteria, maximizing biogas production efficiency.
3. Customizable Solutions
Tanks can be tailored to meet specific project requirements, including capacity, roof design, and additional fittings for biogas collection and processing.
4. Environmentally Friendly
By supporting renewable energy generation and reducing pollution through effective wastewater treatment, GLS tanks contribute to global sustainability goals.
