An extension of PCI's state-of-the-art fuel blending system is our twenty-one tank, 241,662 gallon bulk liquid tank farm, including storage capabilities for over 3500 drums. Here liquids, sludges, solids and semi-solid wastes are processed in "The Tower" and stored as fuel blended material for cement kilns. Selected tanks utilize a nitrogen vapor balance system that provides 99% efficiency in controlling volatile organic compound emissions. The remaining tanks operate as a closed tank system with vapor recovery that prevents pollutants from escaping into the surrounding atmosphere. The tanks are also equipped with mechanical mixing devices to prevent sedimentation of solids suspended within the liquids. This operational flexibility allows the treatment/storage tanks to be used for blending, treatment and storage. Each tank is capable of handling a very broad array of materials, which are segregated for selective blending. This segregation of materials is based on both the PCI Profile Sheet submitted by the waste generator and through sampling and analysis according to the PCI Waste Analysis Plan.
