I am designing a tank that holds and heats a corrosive drilling fluid which is to be kept away from strong oxidizing agents. I am wondering what type of material should be used for the casing of the unit.
The unit will heat the solution to 600F using an indirect heat source of steam.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
