Abstract

Liquid storage tank containing a collapsible bag 8 of flexible impervious sheet material supported by a collar 7 within the tank which floats on the stored liquid or is inflated into a recess in the tank wall and moving with the liquid thereby dividing the interior of the shell into an air and a liquid space. The bag has an external skirt 12 of a similar flexible sheet material attached to the supporting collar which lies between the bag and adjacent tank side walls to reduce abrasion and catching of the bag and tank walls particularly during tank emptying and filling procedures. The sheet material may have antistatic properties and the skirt may be weighted at its lower periphery. <IMAGE>
