Storage tanks have long been used in the separation or handling of liquids and solids in a number of industrial applications. Increasing environmental standards, particularly in the areas of water quality and discharge regulation, have seen a corresponding rise in demand for "envirotanks".

These tanks are designed to assist users in meeting environmental regulations in such diverse applications as quarries, construction sites, landfill runoff filtering, and grease trap waste disposal. The storage, separation, treatment, and hauling of solid and liquid waste products is often optimized by using particular kind of envirotank called the weir tank. Weir tanks are designed to separate liquids from solids as fluids are pumped from one end to another, and come in a number of different configurations. Waste, solids (including gravel, sand and silt), oil, grease and hydrocarbons as well as some metals can all be safely removed.

Envirotanks can be large and expensive items that may not be used on every job or for the entire duration of a given project. As a result, many businesses choose to go the route of envirotank ...
... rental. By renting envirotanks, not only are you getting quality products that have been industry tested, but most companies who provide this sort of rental will service their products at no extra charge. The best rental companies will also provide the expert consulting to determine which type and size of tank is right for a specific scenario.

Meeting environmental standards need not be a daunting enterprise. The equipment is available to rent or purchase and the implementation of environmentally friendly processes benefit business and community alike.
