Secondary Containment And Bunding Systems
Critical security infrastructures that prevent possible leaks from spreading to the environment, personnel and facility
At Bakar Makina, secondary containment and bunding systems are handled as critical security infrastructures that prevent possible leaks that may occur in storage tanks and transfer lines from spreading to the environment, personnel and facility. These systems aim to manage the impact of failure, not the failure itself.
The goal is to prevent a single leak from turning into a chain risk through design.
Leak Scenario-Based Design Approach
Secondary containment systems are engineered considering possible leak volumes, flow directions and chemical properties. Design is made according to the worst-case scenario.
Safety Is Taking The Worst Case Seriously.
Proper Sizing Of Bunding (bund) Areas
Bunding areas created under and around tanks are designed with sufficient capacity according to the volume and properties of the stored chemical. Overflow and spread risks are brought under control.
Bunding Is The Insurance Of The Environment.
Chemical-Resistant Structure And Coating Solutions
Bunding and secondary barrier surfaces are protected with chemical-resistant materials and special coatings against the stored chemical. Concrete, metal and coating systems are selected based on chemical compatibility.
Secondary Barrier Must Also Resist Chemistry.
Drainage And Controlled Discharge Systems
Uncontrolled spread of collected leaks is prevented. Drainage and discharge systems are designed to direct to recovery, neutralization or safe disposal processes.
Leak Is Not Left Uncontrolled.
Integration With Tanks, Lines And Transfer Areas
Secondary containment solutions work integrated with tank farms, loading-unloading stations and transfer lines. All risky areas are covered.
Safety Is Not Piecemeal.
Environment And Occupational Safety-Focused Approach
Bunding systems are planned to limit environmental impacts as well as allow safe intervention of personnel. Slip, contact and exposure risks are minimized.
Environmental Safety And Occupational Safety Are On The Same Line.
Regulatory And Auditability Compliance
Secondary containment and bunding systems are designed to comply with current environmental and occupational safety regulations. Structure is auditable and sustainable.
Compliance Is The Natural Output Of Design.
Long-Lasting And Maintenance-Friendly Structure
Durable material selection and proper detailing ensure bunding systems operate long-term with low maintenance needs.
Silently Working Security Is The Most Valuable.
In Summary
Bakar Makina's secondary containment and bunding systems offer advanced engineering solutions that control possible leaks before spreading to the environment, are chemical-resistant and properly sized, fully compliant with environmental and occupational safety, and integrated with tank farms.
First Barrier Can Fail.
Second Barrier Keeps Safety Standing.
