Safety Tank Cleaners & Septic Services

A zero-human-entry system, like Bristola's SRCS, uses a remote-controlled submersible robot to perform all cleaning inside a tank without any worker entering the confined space. This eliminates the confined space entry hazards regulated by OSHA and dramatically reduces safety risks for facility personnel.

Yes. Bristola's patented equalization chamber entry system allows the robotic cleaner to access and clean liquid storage tanks, anaerobic digesters, and covered lagoons while the facility remains fully operational. There is no need to stop production, drain the tank, or arrange costly temporary storage solutions.

Bristola's systems are designed for anaerobic digesters, biogas facilities, covered lagoons, wastewater treatment plants, food and beverage processing facilities, pulp and paper plants, oil and gas refineries, steel mills, slaughterhouses, and agricultural waste management systems, among other industrial liquid storage applications.

Based on Bristola's case study data, facilities can save approximately $80,000 per tank per year compared to traditional cleaning methods. The annualized cost is approximately $170,000 versus $250,000 for traditional approaches. Savings come from eliminated downtime, no temporary storage requirements, and reduced labor and safety management costs.

Yes. The Patented Equalization Chamber Entry System can be retrofitted to existing facilities without major structural changes. It is compatible with any manhole 24 inches in diameter or greater. Bristola also offers installation services for new construction builds. Feasibility studies are available to evaluate specific facility configurations.

Bristola provides comprehensive support including installation services, annual subscription cleaning programs, full-service maintenance and monitoring plans, technical support, operator training, sediment mapping using sonar technology, feasibility studies for waste management optimization, and data evaluation and reporting on facility condition and performance.
