Normally the corrosion activities in crude oil and fuel storage tanks are attributed due to presence of water layer,oxygen and SRB(Microorganism).Is there any coating which can poison the growth of microorganism in the tank. What about polyurethane coatings which has isocyanate? with advance thanks,

In unaerobic condition as in case of yours SRB colony grows up and can lead to acid induced corrosion. One of the typical Asset Protection Spec. here is good SA 2 1/2 cleaning followed by 2 coat of High Solid Aromatic High Build good quality Epoxy which can also be impregnated with cement glue wash or fibre glass. Sekhapen resinious coating is an old practice. regards DM
