Achieving High Purity and Operational Efficiency in Bulk Chemical Systems
The Chemical Processing Industry (CPI) plays a vital role in the supply chain of the industrial and manufacturing sectors by producing and providing essential raw materials to companies.
​
MMS Engineering choice of industrial coatings have exceptional resistance to:
-
Containers
-
Barrels
-
Pipelines
-
Sacks
-
Small packages
​
Bulk Chemical Distribution (BCD) helps to lower the transportation cost of chemicals from large bulk containers to their final destinations. The demand for BCD is projected to rise due to the increasing demand from end-use industries like construction, automotive, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and infrastructure. Learn More.

Automated equipment that dilutes and dispenses chemicals is commonly found in BCD systems. Coatings which used in various system components to provide chemical and thermal resistance.
Apply coatings are a more cost-effective way to produce inherently pure products compared to additional downstream refinement.
Tanks and Containers
The reason why chemical suppliers prefer to use fluoropolymer coatings to line tanks and containers, as well as returnable drums, is because they are universally compatible with almost all chemicals. This makes them an ideal choice for and dispensing ultra-pure and aggressive chemical fluids, as they help to protect fluid purity.
Fluid Handling Components
Fluoropolymer coatings offer essential and top-notch safeguarding against contamination for fluid handling components. These coatings are applied to fittings that connect BCD system piping with pumps, pressure regulators, valves, and remote-activated automated systems.
Piping and Fittings
To ensure that there are no leaks or contamination, piping systems need to have lined fittings and bolted flanges coated with fluoropolymer coatings. Additionally, thermal welding, flare-type connections, and dual containment construction methods are utilized.
Sensors
Fluid levels in BCD tanks can be monitored by capacitors can be coated with fluoropolymer coatings. Additionally, other sensor designs coated with fluoropolymer coatings can detect chemical flow through tank or pipe walls.
