Salt Water Tanker

A saltwater tanker carries seawater, which is not suitable for drinking or most human uses without extensive desalination processes. Saltwater tankers might transport seawater for industrial purposes, such as cooling systems in power plants or for ballast in large ships. Saltwater tankers may use materials like mild steel or specialized coatings since saltwater is corrosive. The construction focuses on preventing rust and corrosion. Saltwater tankers may not require such linings but focus on corrosion-resistant coatings to protect against saltwater’s corrosive effects. Piping and fittings should be resistant to corrosion from saltwater exposure.
