Compressed Gas

Compressed gases provide a convenient way to store and deliver chemicals to various reaction vessels. Along with this convenience comes the requirement for substantial containment systems which are able to handle the forces, volume expansions, and container weights associated with this type of process.

Information on the safe use and proper handling of compressed gases can be found on this site.
