A dissolved acetylene gas cylinder is a type of gas cylinder which is used for storage and transportation of acetylene gas in a dissolved form. Dissolving Acetylene in a cylinder is done in acetone because its instability under high pressure makes it difficult to store. The cylinder has a porous filler which contains the acetone and into which the acetylene dissolves. This method of storage minimizes the risk of explosive decomposition of acetylene. A strong material like steel is used to construct the cylinder so that it can bear the internal pressure. It has a valve mechanism for the controlled emission of the dissolved acetylene gas. Those cylinders are common in the welding and metal working industries which use acetylene during cutting and welding since a reliable source of acetylene is needed. A blown up image of an acetylene gas cylinder shows handles and springs that are employed for safe transportation. To avoid safety risks posed by the flammability of acetylene, proper handling, storage and transport are to be exercised.
