Case Study: Thermal Insulation for Oil Storage Tanks
Solution: Rare earth thermal insulation coating (metal application)
Project Background
Oil storage tanks are constantly exposed to harsh sunlight and fluctuating environmental conditions. Without proper insulation, these metal surfaces absorb extreme heat, leading to higher energy consumption for cooling, safety risks, and product degradation. To address this, our rare earth thermal barrier coating was applied on large-scale oil storage tanks.
Application
The tanks were coated with Easyto’s advanced rare earth thermal insulation coating. This innovative solution blocks infrared and UV radiation, while radiating heat away efficiently, reducing the overall thermal load on the storage system.
Temperature Comparison
| Measurement | With Rare Earth Coating (Sprayed) | Without Coating (Unsprayed) |
|---|---|---|
| Environment temperature on top of tank | 40.8°C | 67.4°C |
| Tank surface temperature | 39.3°C | 64.9°C |
Results & Benefits
- Surface temperature reduced by over 25°C.
- Improved safety and reduced fire hazard risks.
- Lower cooling energy demand, resulting in cost savings.
- Extended service life of tanks by reducing thermal stress.
This case demonstrates how Easyto’s rare earth coating technology can effectively control heat, improve energy efficiency, and enhance safety in critical industrial applications.
