For professional digester tank services, including protective coatings for digesters that align with your project’s design and operational goals, trust Octane Environmental.

Site Assessment & Project Planning

Every project, including biogas facility erection, begins with a comprehensive onsite evaluation. We assess the condition of the digester or tank, identify areas requiring repair, and tailor a coating system based on:

- Substrate type (concrete or steel)

- Chemical exposure levels (such as H₂S, acids, methane)

- Temperature and humidity conditions

- Accessibility and operational constraints

This upfront planning ensures that each application meets industry standards and operational goals, particularly for our digester tank services.

Surface Preparation

Proper substrate preparation is essential for the longevity of protective coatings for digesters. Our field crews are trained in strict surface prep protocols, including:

- Power washing or abrasive blasting to remove residues, biofilm, and loose materials

- Concrete profiling to ICRI CSP 3–5 using scarifiers or shot blasters

- Steel prep to SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2 for near-white metal cleanliness

- Moisture testing and crack/joint repair using compatible sealants or mortars

Surface prep is conducted in accordance with manufacturer specifications and verified through internal quality control and, when required, third-party inspections.

Primer Application

We apply a compatible moisture-tolerant epoxy or urethane primer, ensuring optimal adhesion and sealing of pores or microcracks. This step enhances bonding and prevents outgassing during the polyurea spray.

Polyurea Coating Installation

Our technicians use plural-component spray systems to apply polyurea coatings at high pressure and temperature. Key benefits include:

- Rapid cure time (seconds to minutes)

- Flexible build thicknesses (typically 60–100 mils)

- Elongation and crack-bridging properties

- High resistance to chemicals, abrasion, and moisture

This allows us to coat large surfaces quickly, even in temperature- and moisture-variable environments.

Quality Assurance & Inspection

Once applied, we conduct thorough inspections to ensure system integrity:

- Dry film thickness testing

- Adhesion pull-off testing

- Spark testing for holidays or pinholes (as needed)

- Final walk-through with client or third-party QA inspector

Documentation and coating reports are provided upon request for compliance and warranty tracking.

Return to Service

Thanks to polyurea’s rapid cure characteristics, your digester or containment area can often return to service within hours, reducing downtime and increasing operational continuity.
