As standard, the containers are coated with a corrosion resistant paint and include a man door, and ventilation. Air conditioning may be added as an option. Installation requires only placement on a flat, level surface and connections of power and water utilizing a manifold.
Construction in containers saves the cost of a building for the system. It is also used for remote locations, for emergency response, and on oil platforms and ships. When a system is installed on a temporary basis, for example for a camp, or as a pilot plant, use of a containerized system facilitates easy relocation.
