AST (Aboveground Storage Tank)

An Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) is a container designed to hold liquids such as water, fuel, or chemicals above ground level. These tanks are commonly used in industries, farms, and facilities to store large quantities safely and conveniently. They are usually made of durable materials like steel or plastic and are equipped with safety features to prevent leaks, spills, and environmental contamination. ASTs are easier to inspect, maintain, and repair compared to underground tanks, making them a practical solution for liquid storage needs. Proper management and inspection are essential to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.
