I worked with Annie Newcomb to create a database of chemical storage tanks and the Mathcad code to assign the proper size coagulant tanks to a plant, along with the pipes and pieces that will connect the tanks to the constant head tank once we are able to draw flexible tubing. The database contains tanks from the supplier Rotoplast, which is based in Colombia and whose products are available in Honduras and other countries in Latin America. Our final report is available here and provides details about how the tank sizes are chosen and how the tanks along with the connecting pipes and pieces are drawn. Our page is called "Coagulant Stock Tank Design Program" since our AutoCAD scripts draw only the coagulant stock tanks; however, our tank database can also be used for the chlorine stock tanks.
