vats
Large industrial containers
Vats is the plural of vat, a large container for holding liquids, typically used in industrial processes like brewing, dyeing, or fermenting: The brewery's copper vats gleamed in the morning light.
Vats suggest scale—bigger than a barrel, often fixed in place rather than portable.
