Industries generating process wastewater must remove contaminants before discharge or final treatment, making pre-treatment a critical step in regulatory compliance and plant efficiency. ModuTank’s industrial wastewater pre-treatment tanks provide secure, above-ground containment for equalization, neutralization, sludge settling, oil/water separation, chemical dosing, and other front-end treatment processes. Built from hot-dipped galvanized steel components and fitted with membrane liners such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or XR-5 geomembranes, our tanks maintain chemical compatibility and protect against leakage — essential for managing variable industrial waste streams.
Industrial Wastewater Pre-Treatment Tanks
Industrial wastewater often contains oils, suspended solids, metals, surfactants, acids, alkalis, and temperature-sensitive components. ModuTank’s pre-treatment tanks offer the flexibility needed to handle this variability. Tanks can be configured for equalization to stabilize flow rates, pH adjustment systems can be integrated via external equipment, and options for sludge thickening or primary settling are accommodated with custom inlet/outlet penetrations. Because our tanks are membrane-lined and not welded, they can handle corrosive or abrasive liquids without compromising the steel structure. Their bolt-together modularity enables deployment in constrained industrial yards, rooftops, or irregular spaces where traditional concrete basins are not feasible.
Industrial facilities often face fluctuating production demands, new regulatory thresholds, or temporary needs during system upgrades. ModuTank’s pre-treatment tanks are designed for rapid installation with hand tools, allowing facilities to add equalization capacity, temporary bypass tanks, or emergency containment quickly. Tanks range from thousands to millions of gallons and can be expanded, relocated, or reconfigured as operations evolve. This scalability makes ModuTank an ideal partner for industries such as manufacturing, food processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceuticals, mining, metal finishing, and chemical production — all sectors where wastewater volumes and characteristics can change over time.
ModuTank’s industrial wastewater pre-treatment tanks provide durable, adaptable, and cost-effective containment for the essential first steps of wastewater management. By stabilizing flows, isolating contaminants, and supporting upstream treatment processes, our tanks help facilities protect downstream systems, maintain compliance, and operate with greater efficiency and control.
