The Aluminum Chemical Tanker Semi Trailer is engineered for the secure and efficient transportation of diverse liquid chemicals. Constructed primarily from high-strength aluminum alloys, these trailers offer a significant weight reduction compared to steel alternatives while maintaining structural integrity and corrosion resistance essential for handling aggressive substances. They adhere to stringent international standards, including ADR/RID for hazardous materials transport. Typical capacities range from 30,000 to 45,000 liters, configurable to meet specific operational requirements.
Material Construction: Utilizes corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys (e.g., AA5083, AA5454) for the tank shell and critical components, ensuring longevity and reducing tare weight for increased payload capacity.
Compliance & Safety: Designed to meet or exceed ADR/RID, DOT 406, and TC regulations. Features include vapor recovery systems, bottom loading/unloading valves, pressure relief devices, and advanced emergency shut-off systems.
Compartmentalization: Often features multiple segregated compartments (e.g., 3-5) constructed with baffles or bulkheads. This allows simultaneous transport of different non-compatible chemicals and enhances stability.
Valving and Manways: Equipped with stainless steel or aluminum valves, fittings, and secure manways compatible with various chemical properties. Options include top or bottom loading configurations.
Subframe and Running Gear: Robust steel subframe supports the tank. Equipped with durable axles (air-suspension common), reliable braking systems (ABS standard), and suitable lighting.
This semi-trailer is indispensable for logistics companies servicing the chemical manufacturing, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical sectors. It safely transports a wide array of liquid chemicals, including corrosive acids (e.g., sulfuric acid), bases (e.g., caustic soda), solvents, alcohols, and other hazardous or non-hazardous liquids requiring specialized containment.
Q: What certifications do these trailers typically hold?
A: They are commonly built to ADR/RID (Europe), DOT 406 (USA), or TC (Canada) standards for hazardous materials transport. Certificates of conformity are provided.
Q: Can different compartments hold different chemicals simultaneously?
A: Yes, segregated compartments with individual discharge systems allow for the simultaneous transport of compatible but distinct chemicals, subject to regulatory approvals for the specific substances.
Q: How does aluminum construction benefit chemical transport?
A: Aluminum offers inherent corrosion resistance to many chemicals, reduces overall trailer weight for increased payload, and minimizes the risk of contamination compared to some steel types.
Q: What maintenance is specific to chemical tankers?
A: Regular internal and external inspections for corrosion or damage, thorough cleaning between loads (especially when changing chemicals), and meticulous maintenance of valves, seals, and safety devices are critical.
