Poly Processing - Model L&C -Leachate and Condensate
Tank designs to meet the lifecycle cost of a landfill. Leachate and condensate from landfills can contain hazardous constituents either as a direct result of the waste disposed in the facility (e.g., household hazardous wastes) or as a result of the breakdown of the chemical compounds found in waste (e.g., leachate derived constituents).
Poly Processing Company’s Cross-linked Polyethylene tanks will perform under almost any circumstance:
- Chemically compatible with most every dissolved and solid material found in landfill leachate / condensate including acids, aldehydes, ammonia, pathogens, metals, etc.
- 20 times the Environmental Stress Crack Resistance of High Density Linear Polyethylene tanks.
- Seamless construction which eliminates the potential for chemical attack points and bad welds / joints found in Fiberglass tanks and Steel tanks.
- Cross-linked Polyethylene tanks are not affected by the unpredictable composition of leachate / condensate and never need maintenance. Leachate / condensate will severely damage epoxy, concrete, and powder coated tanks leading to costly maintenance.
- Installations in typical landfills as well as hazardous waste landfills for over 25 years with no issues.
By providing the right kind of storage for these chemicals, safety can be maintained – and the integrity of the product can be preserved.
- High-density crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) construction for maximum strength
- Integrally Molded Flanged Outlet (IMFO®) for complete drainage
- SAFE-Tank® design for “tank-within-a-tank” protection
IMFO® Vertical Flat Bottom of XLPE:
- 230–13,650 gallons
- 1.35-1.9 spg rating
Non-IMFO® alternatives:
SAFE-Tank® XLPE:
- 55–8,700 gallons
- 1.35-1.9 spg rating for primary tank
- Spg ratings for secondary tanks must be equal to primary tank.
- All other tank sizes must equal primary tank spg rating.
Standard Vertical Flat Bottom XLPE:
- 30–13,650 gallons
- 1.35-1.9 spg rating
Alternative secondary containment:
Plumbing: Requires use of flexible connections with fittings on lower third of sidewall. See Fittings & Accessories for flexible connections options.
- Expansion joints must meet the following minimum requirements:
- Axial Compression ≥ 1.5?
- Axial Extension ≥ 0.625?
- Lateral Deflection ≥ 0.750?
- Angular Deflection ≥ 14°
- Torsional Rotation ≥ 4°
Venting: See Venting Chart
Foundation: PPC IMFO® tank pad or smooth concrete, asphalt or solid steel foundation designed to accommodate IMFO®, SAFE-Tank® or vertical tank
Temperature: Product should not exceed 100°F at delivery to prevent damage to tank. Contact Customer Support if chemical is to exceed 100°F.
