These spheres float on the liquid's surface in open tanks and thereby greatly reduce the exposed liquid surface area by up to 90%. A blanket of spheres dramatically diminishes objectionable fumes and odors and insulates heated liquid reducing evaporation and heat requirements. They are ideal for plating tanks and similar open tank installations. The liquid surface can be covered with a sphere blanket without impeding access to the tank for process purposes.
