    Storage & Handling

    Storage and Handling

    POGOL® 200 polyethylene glycol may be satisfactorily stored in carbon steel tanks using steel pipes and pumps. Caution should be exercised, however, to keep the material in the anhydrous state to prevent severe corrosion to the carbon steel tank and related equipment. A drier on the breathing nozzle is recommended to help maintain anhydrous conditions in the storage tank. For longer term color stability, it is recommended that the product be stored under an inert atmosphere. Low pressure steam coils in storage tanks and steam tracing of transfer lines should be provided in cases where low environmental temperatures may make pumping of the product difficult.
