Tankers

Cisterns are special machines for transportation that are used to transport liquids or gases. A cistern is usually a cylindrical or rectangular tank, typically made of metal or plastic, mounted on a truck or trailer.

Categories of cisterns:

• Fuel cisterns - cisterns used for transporting liquid fuels such as gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, etc.
• Chemical cisterns - cisterns used for transporting chemical liquids such as acids, bases, oils, pesticides, etc.
• Gas cisterns - cisterns used for transporting gases such as propane, butane, LNG, LPG, etc.
• Food cisterns - cisterns used for transporting food such as milk, juices, edible oils, syrups, etc.
• Water transportation cisterns - cisterns used for transporting water, such as drinking water, technical water, or water for industrial purposes, such as cooling water.
• Specialized cisterns - cisterns used for transporting other types of liquids or gases, such as distilled water, air conditioning fluids, lime milk, etc.

When choosing the appropriate cistern, many factors should be taken into account, such as the type of material being transported, weight, dimensions, type of chassis, technical equipment, and many other factors. The cistern must be properly secured against leakage and also comply with legal requirements regarding safety and environmental protection.
