Tank Connection is an industry leader in the storage of mineral and aggregate products. Cement, lime, sand and fly ash storage are some typical applications. The Tank Connection uses the "Smart Approach" for tank construction in matching fill and discharge equipment with the correct tank design. Cement and fly ash are fluidized for predictable flow during discharge. We specify the foundation requirements and all equipment for filling (mechanical or pneumatic), discharge and weighing. A complete turnkey system can be implemented with all equipment installed in the field.
