1. Primary Storage for Waste Motor Oils
- Engineered to safely store spent engine oil, transmission fluid, gear oil, and power steering fluid.
- Double‑wall construction provides critical secondary barrier against environmental contamination.
- Protects surrounding soil and groundwater from potential leaks.
2. Hydraulic and Brake Fluids
- Suitable for waste hydraulic oil and brake fluid – essential fluids from heavy machinery and vehicle braking systems.
- Highly toxic liquids pose severe environmental risks if leaked.
- Double‑wall design ensures spills are safely contained within the interstitial space.
3. Strict Exclusion of Incompatible Liquids
- Never store antifreeze, solvents, gasoline, degreasers, paint thinners, or aerosol cleaners.
- Chemical mixtures can cause dangerous reactions and compromise tank integrity.
- Transforms waste into hazardous material requiring complex disposal.
4. Dedicated Antifreeze Storage Tanks
- Antifreeze requires completely separate storage – cannot be mixed with waste oil.
- Facilities must provide a dedicated double‑wall tank specifically for waste antifreeze.
- Ensures safe offsite disposal and prevents cross‑contamination.
