Tanks for UAN (RSM)

Tanks for liquid fertilizers - for whom?

UAN (RSM) highly effective soil fertilizers are commonly used in modern agriculture. Urea-ammonium nitrate solution is in liquid form. It should be stored in closed, vented vessels, at a temperature higher than the crystallization temperature.

Although UAN (RSM) fertilizer is characterized by corrosive properties, it can also be successfully stored in properly designed and constructed steel tanks. Carbon steel tanks dedicated to UAN (RSM) are internally coated with a specialized coating that protects against corrosion and guarantees the possibility of long-term use. All elements of the tank equipment are made in such a way as to ensure durability in contact with nitrogen fertilizers. A dedicated drip tray, located under the entire length of the UAN tank, protects the natural environment against contamination with chemical compounds in the event of an uncontrolled leak.
