Steam fin tube bundles?  If you need a design, contact an experienced enginering group.  If you need an engineering group, I can help.

Check out American Heating.  A lot of our clients use them for asphalt tanks.  Let me be clear, I am not with American Heating.

Let me guess.....

This is a tank that was once used for another purpose..??

I am guessing that the tank was once used for the storage of crude oil and your boss wants to change the service to asphalt.... To somehow save money.....Is that correct ?

Have you compared the specific gravity of the old and new liquids ?

Could this be the largest asphalt storage tank in the world ?
