Steel Tank Corrosion Issues

When tank surfaces face constant exposure to liquids and chemicals, brewery tanks can develop serious corrosion issues.

We’ve seen how fermentation tanks can go from pristine to problematic without proper tank maintenance strategies. Corrosion prevention techniques are crucial for breweries of all sizes.

• Rust spots often appear initially at weld seams and joints

• Acidic cleaning agents can accelerate metal deterioration

• Scratches in stainless steel become entry points for corrosion

• Temperature fluctuations weaken protective oxide layers

• Poor drainage design creates moisture traps that promote rust

Additionally, employing sanitary welding standards during the fabrication process can significantly enhance the longevity and integrity of brewery fermentation tanks.
