An acetylene gas cylinder is a type of pressure vessel that stores and transports acetylene gas, which has applications in welding and cutting. There is a defined industrial standard for these cylinders, and safety is their primary focus. For this reason, these cylinders are constructed from high – strength steel which can easily withstand the pressure of compressed acetylene. The gas cylinder contains a porous material, usually an asbestos – like substance, that is saturated with acetone, which makes it a solvent for acetylene. Under pressure, acetylene dissolves in the acetone, which helps to stabilize and prevent explosive decomposing of acetylene gas. To facilitate the regulated release of acetylene gas, a valve is incorporated in the cylinder. Given the highly volatile nature of acetylene, acetylene gas cylinders are heavily regulated with regards to safety regulations on filling, storage, transportation, and use. Routine maintenance inspections of these cylinders are required to ensure the integrity of the cylinders and the safe implementation of industrial applications.
