quote:Most are lined, and it is preferred, but many people move caustic in unlined carbon steel barges. It's always been my understanding that shippers (product owners) want lined barges more than the barge owners. This is Because the first loading of caustic on carbon steel will dirty the product. Subsequent loading a will come out fine unless the barge is cleaned. Not because of the eating away of steel. It's nothing close to what saltwater does to steel.
They're lined tanks dude. Lined with PTFE or rubber.
I don't know anyone that lines tank barges with rubber. I've only seen that in pressure barges.
Eta:Carbon steel
