Description

A Sulphuric Acid Tanker is a specialized transport vehicle or container designed to safely carry sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄), a highly corrosive and dense liquid chemical. These tankers are built to meet strict safety standards due to the hazardous nature of the substance. 🔹 General Description Purpose: Transport of sulphuric acid in bulk, typically between manufacturing plants, refineries, chemical distributors, and industrial users. Material: Tankers are usually made from high-grade stainless steel (e.g., 316L) or carbon steel with rubber lining to resist corrosion. Shape: Cylindrical tank, often with a slightly elliptical cross-section for structural integrity and to lower the center of gravity. Capacity: Varies by region and transport mode, typically: Road tankers: 20,000–35,000 liters (approx. 5,000–9,000 gallons) Rail tank cars: Up to 100,000 liters (approx. 26,000 gallons) ISO Tank Containers: 20,000–26,000 liters (approx. 5,000–7,000 gallons)
