20ft Flowback Tank
The SCF 20ft Flowback tank is a small and mighty solution for your on site water treatment and liquid sediment removal. This tank has a 31,000 L capacity and is compliant for both road and rail transport allowing quick and easy deployment to almost any location.
Flowback Tank Details
Managing on site water treatment has never been easier with our 20ft Flowback Tank.
It is built as an open top tank with a fold down gantry system, allowing operators to safely access the top of the tank and the central weir to treat water.
Our 20ft Flowback Tank has been designed for the purpose of removing suspended solids from water. The internal weirs encourage solids to drop from suspension and settle in the bottom of the tank, thanks to SCF's sediment removal system.
When the hard work is done, multiple drain points and the open top configuration make washing out the tank easy, so you can move on to the next job hassle-free.
Similar to our 40ft Flowback Tank and 45ft Flowback Tank, this unit can be connected in sequence together to allow for further separation and storage.

How is this container delivered?
Tilt Tray
This is the most common method. We tilt the truck’s tray, then slide the container off while the vehicle slowly moves forward. Just note that the container’s height will increase when it’s tilted – so if your site has overhead obstacles (like power lines) we may need to go with another method.
Hiab Crane
We use Hiab cranes when there’s not enough space for a side loader or tilt tray – or if your site has other tricky obstacles to manoeuver around (like fences). The crane lifts and then places the shipping container. This method also makes it easy to place containers at an angle, or on raised areas.
Side Loader
If your site has limited space around the shipping container’s final position, side loader delivery could be the best option. The container is unloaded between the side loader’s two outrigger feet – about 0.5m from the truck’s side. We use side loaders to transport 20ft and 40ft shipping containers.
