Cathodic Protection 

Cathodic protection system consists of sacrificial anodes that mitigate corrosion and provide protection to internal submerged surfaces of the tank. The cathodic protection system is incorporated into the tanks warranty. The system is simple, reliable and requires only minimum inspection and maintenance.

Our History

CST (formerly A.O. Smith) began manufacturing glass-fused-to-steel tanks & Silos for the agricultural market under the name HARVESTORE®. In the 1970s, AQUASTORE tanks were developed for use in municipal and industrial water and wastewater applications. The use of the glass tanks has since expanded to include numerous industrial liquid applications and digesters. Now more than 100,000 glass tanks have been installed in over 70 countries around the world.

CST’s AQUASTORE glass-fused-to-steel storage tanks are ideal for the following applications:

Potable Water Storage

Whether multiple tanks over 5MM gallons or a single tank of 5,000 gallons, CST’s AQUASTORE glass tanks provide the lowest life cycle cost, are durable, easy to construct and never need repainting.

Composite Elevated Water Storage

What better place to have a tank that never needs painting than 100 feet up in the air. Fast construction times, ultra-low maintenance and expandability are just some of the features that are causing engineers to specify AQUASTORE composite elevated tanks (CET’s).

Industrial Liquids Storage

CST storage tanks are ideally suited for thousands of industrial liquid applications.  CST has a complete product line of storage technologies, custom engineered for each application.

BioEnergy/Digesters Storage

CST has been designing and manufacturing digester, biofuel and biomass glass lined storage tanks with the most comprehensive lines of roof and cover options for more than 100 years.

Wastewater Storage

CST manufactures low maintenance, high durability tanks for almost every aboveground wastewater application. AQUASTORE tanks are utilized for clarifiers, aeration, trickling filters, sludge tanks, storm water retention tanks, flow equalizations, and sequencing batch reactor.

Landfill Leachate Storage

AQUASTORE tanks are manufactured using glassed-fused-to-steel technology – inert interior and exterior coating that resist corrosion by the toughest liquids.  Because of AQUASTORE proprietary glass-fused-to-steel technology, our tanks out perform any other leachate storage tank.

AQUASTORE primary and secondary tanks are flexible in design and can expand to meet your growing leachate capacity.  Glass lined tanks require very low maintenance and never need repainting.
