Caustic bladders are large covered lagoons for storage of caustic soda, which is used for production of aluminum being corrosive can cause significant damage to the ground and also as caustic is used for aluminum production contamination of the caustic is undesirable.

Applying accurate and reliable automated leak location systems into caustic bladder construction can be quite complex, however Sensor DDS® CMS has been successfully integrated into bladder design.

Sensor DDS RMS and CMS systems are perfect for monitoring the bladder for leaks and raising the alarm to ensure in the event of a leak that the response is as effective as possible. Our technologies are resistant to the chemicals contained in the caustic bladders allowing our standard 30 year warranty on products stored below the ground. Our systems allow for temperature and liquid levels to be controlled ensuring a stable environment for volatile chemicals.

Sensor DDS® CMS has been deployed to protect caustic storage in Australia and will coming to an aluminum production facility near you soon!
