Storage tanks are large containers for holding liquids or gases—water, oil, chemicals, fuel.
They range from backyard rain barrels to massive industrial vessels at refineries and treatment plants.
The plural often appears in contexts involving infrastructure, environmental regulation, or industrial operations: The facility's storage tanks hold two million gallons of crude.
