Vinasse and Molasses Storage
- High resistance to aggressive products (acids, suspended solids)
- Durable materials: glass-fused-to-steel or stainless steel
- Quick assembly without welding or work at height
- Modular capacities: 5 m³ to 10,000 m³
- Easy, low-maintenance operation
APRO Industrie offers solutions for storing effluents resulting from the distillation of various products. Our installations are designed to ensure safety, durability, and efficiency in storing vinasse and molasses, with a range of products tailored to your specific needs and the compositions of these effluents. Our tanks are engineered to accommodate the high densities typical of these products.
Our Solutions for Vinasse Storage
Vinasse, a liquid by-product of alcoholic distillation, has specific characteristics that require adapted storage solutions. Rich in organic matter and often highly acidic, it demands materials resistant to corrosion and chemical aggression. APRO Industrie has developed specialized expertise in this field to offer high-performance technical solutions, whether for temporary storage before treatment or for agricultural valorization of these effluents.
Glass-Fused-to-Steel Tanks with Mastic Sealing
Glass-fused-to-steel provides complete chemical inertness for vinasse or molasses. It is abrasion-resistant and highly durable, suitable for storing aggressive products with variable compositions. Tank roof types may vary depending on the quality and intended use of the stored product.
Stainless Steel Tanks with Mastic Sealing
Renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance, stainless steel allows for long-term storage. As a solid, “massive” material, it is highly resistant to abrasion from thick or heavily suspended solids (TSS). Its mechanical and impact strength is unmatched. Roof types may vary according to the quality and intended use of the stored product.
Technical Features of Our Solutions
Our tanks for vinasse and molasses storage are available in capacities from 5 m³ to 10,000 m³, suitable for installation in France or worldwide. They are designed to handle high-density products and are equipped to ensure proper operation during storage.
- Quick assembly is possible without welding or work at height. The tanks are modular and transportable in standard containers.
- Our tanks provide reliable and economical solutions, fast to deploy, with modular equipment options and low maintenance requirements.
