Iran-Made Antibacterial Water Tanks Benefits from Nanotechnology

The three-layered tanks produced by the company have made it possible to store drinking water, especially in the hot seasons of the year.

The polyethylene tank for water storage is produced with an antibacterial inner layer, which has a better performance than normal tanks due to its nanoparticles.

Polyethylene storage tanks are usually used in buildings to store water and provide the required pressure for domestic use.

Polyethylene tanks were produced at first in a colorless and single-layer form.

Due to the semi-transparency of the first generation of single-layer polyethylene tanks, the light passed through the wall of the tank and allowed the growth of algae in the inner layer or inside the tank filled with water.

These algae were the cause of some biological activity in the water, which eventually changed the color and unpleasant smell of the water.

Therefore, a dark layer was added to the tank to minimize the formation of algae by controlling the incoming light.

The company uses zinc oxide and silver nanoparticles in the third layer of the body of polyethylene tanks and produces these tanks in three layers, which can be used for storing and maintaining all kinds of drinking liquids.

These tanks are suitable for use in cold and tropical regions due to very low heat transfer and are resistant to UV rays from the sun.

Light weight and high strength, easy installation, corrosion resistance, and easy transportation are some other advantages of the Iran-made antibacterial water tanks.
