サンフロイント List of Products and Services

We would like to introduce our "Lining Construction for Solvent Tanks." We apply construction materials that can withstand various solvents to the entire inner surface of the tank, completely shutting out any leakage of the tank contents to the outside. Lining for hydrocarbon-based solvents such as toluene and xylene, as well as alcohol-based and industrial gasoline, is also possible. We are implementing the extensive construction achievements and know-how we have cultivated in tank lining for solvent tanks as well. Please feel free to consult us when you need our services. 【Lining Options Available】 ■ Hydrocarbon-based ■ Alcohol-based ■ Aromatic and ester-based ■ Ketone-based ■ Ether glycol-based, etc. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

• Piping Materials

Underground tanks at hazardous material facilities such as SS have been equipped with SF double-walled tanks since around 1994, and as of March 31, 2011, a total of 41,572 SF double-walled tanks have been installed. In this situation, during leakage inspections of underground tanks, abnormal pressure fluctuations have been confirmed in the small space between the outer shell made of FRP and the inner shell made of steel of the SF double-walled tanks. Even if the cause is identified and the leakage point is repaired, there are cases where new abnormalities occur in different locations, or abnormalities in other areas are confirmed several years after the first repair, making it impossible to guarantee that past repair work will be completed in one go. However, the reality is that the fire department is also struggling to provide strong guidance due to economic issues. Our company's "Underground Storage Tank Leakage Detection System with Inner FRP Double-Wall Structure" offers a low-cost solution to these problems. 【Benefits】 ■ There is no need to repair each location every time an abnormality is detected. ■ The number of facilities that cannot be repaired due to economic reasons decreases, reducing the risk of accidents. ■ Even facilities that cannot be inspected frequently can be safely monitored from remote locations. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

The "Leak Detection Device Equipped Underground Buried Resin Double-Shell Piping" features a structure that incorporates sensors in the gap between the inner oil transport (main) pipe and the outer shell pipe of the double-shell piping. This technology allows for pinpoint detection of leaks from external water and internal fuel oil, enabling repairs to be made before any actual damage occurs. Currently, resin piping is mainstream, and by doubling the piping, the risk of fuel oil leakage (environmental pollution) can be dramatically reduced, making it suitable for suction pipes and oil supply pipes that transport fuel oil. 【Features】 - Pinpoint detection of leaks from external water and internal fuel oil - Doubling the piping significantly reduces the risk of fuel oil leakage (environmental pollution) - Repairs can be made before any damage occurs, among others *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

The "Underground Storage Tank Leak Detection Device with Inner FRP Double Shell Structure" features a newly applied three-dimensional cross-structured FRP lining on the inside of the tank, with sensors installed in that space to continuously monitor for hazardous material leaks. This allows us to provide functions equivalent to SF double-shell tanks at a lower cost and more quickly. This is a unique technology from Sunfroint that addresses issues such as "repairs are costly and therefore infrequent" and "tank replacement takes time." 【Features】 ■ No need for repairs at each location every time an anomaly is detected ■ Safe confirmation possible from remote locations even in facilities that cannot be inspected frequently ■ Continuous monitoring of leaks inside the underground tank, etc. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

During leakage inspections of underground tanks, abnormalities in pressure fluctuations have been confirmed in the small space between the outer shell of the SF double-walled tank made of FRP and the inner shell made of steel. However, even after identifying the cause and the leakage point and repairing it, there are cases where new abnormalities appear in different locations, or where abnormalities in other areas are confirmed years after the first repair. Currently, there is no guarantee that past repair work will be completed in one go. As solutions, options include "excavating the tank above ground, completely removing the old outer FRP shell, and reconstructing the outer shell with new FRP" or "replacing it with a new tank," but the costs for materials and construction are high, making these options impractical. Therefore, by implementing our "inner FRP double-walled structure," it is possible to significantly reduce costs and shorten construction time, as there is no need for tank replacement or excavation. 【Features】 - No need for repairs at each location every time an abnormality is detected - Safe confirmation possible from remote locations even in facilities that cannot be inspected frequently - Continuous monitoring of leaks inside the underground tank, etc. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

By inserting a fiberscope from the top of the tank and checking the internal condition, it is possible to detect the presence of foreign objects, corrosion, welding defects, and other issues. 【Problems Due to Aging】 Steel single-shell tanks buried underground can experience corrosion over 20 to 30 years, depending on the surrounding environment, leading to a rapidly increasing risk of hazardous material leakage. 【Investigation for Current Condition Assessment】 The current condition of the underground tank will be investigated using a fiberscope. It is not uncommon for the interiors of aging tanks to show significant rust and corrosion. —What can be understood through a combination of airtightness testing and fiberscope inspection— ● The condition of foreign objects and deposits inside the tank and piping ● The presence and condition of corrosion and pitting inside the tank and piping ● The integrity status of welding defects at piping joints *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF materials for review.

In the event of an anomaly in the outer shell FRP of an existing SF double-shell tank, a new three-dimensional cross-structure FRP lining will be applied to the inner surface of the inner shell steel, and a sensor (a device for detecting minor leaks of hazardous substances in underground buried piping (constant monitoring equipment) evaluation number: All Hazardous Materials Association Evaluation No. 22) will be installed in that space to continuously monitor for leaks of hazardous materials. This allows us to provide the same functionality as an SF double-shell tank quickly and at a low cost. 【Benefits】 ■ There will be no need to repair each location every time an anomaly is detected. ■ The number of facilities that cannot be repaired for economic reasons will decrease, reducing the risk of accidents. ■ Facilities that cannot be inspected frequently can still be safely monitored from a remote location. * For specific background information, please refer to the basic information below. 【Features】 ■ Patented in Japan and Australia ■ Continuous monitoring of leaks inside underground tanks 【Japan】 Steel tank inner surface FRP double-shell structure (with leak detection device) Patent: No. 6134128 Utility Model: No. 3196696 【Australia】 Steel tank inner surface FRP double-shell structure (with leak detection device) Patent: No. 2012-101365 * For more details, please contact us or download the PDF materials for review.

• Piping Materials

FRP lining completely prevents hazardous material leakage by applying FRP to the inner surface of tanks. The FRP lining sheet method involves attaching FRP sheets made of oil and chemical-resistant materials, which are manufactured in a factory, to the inside of the tank and curing them with ultraviolet light, ensuring that there is no corrosion from the inside for a semi-permanent duration. Once completed, it functions similarly to a double-shell tank. <Features of the Construction> ■ Tank inner surface lining (sheet method) This method eliminates the uneven thickness often caused by liquid dripping on the top surface of the tank during liquid FRP hand application (hand lay-up method), resulting in uniform thickness and high construction quality. ■ FRP cures with light (ultraviolet) [20-30 minutes] There is no heat generation during the curing of FRP, preventing any issues with the outer protective material. It can also be applied during winter. ■ Short construction period Construction can be completed in 5 to 10 days for two 10KL tanks simultaneously.
