Project Wrap-up: Biodiesel Heating Self Bunded Tank - GO x Green Power Solutions

The beauty of GO Industrial is that we are a true fluids handling business.

Whether it's airless paint sprayers, pumping and transferring canola oil, or in this case, heating biodiesel for a unique storage application, it keeps our day-to-day pretty fascinating for the team.

Sam (our Engineering Manager), walks you through our modified BOX-2.25 2250L Self Bunded Tank for the storage and heating of biodiesel. In this application for Green Power Solutions, the tank supplies biodiesel to, surprise, surprise... Biodiesel Generators.
