The Application of Deformable Gas Safety Apparatus in Safety Storage, Transportation and Usage of the Volatile Solvents

Abstract:

Volatile solvents are widely used in industrial process, and present in various industrial fields. However, volatile solvents could be potential sources of physical and health hazards. Industry need to get suitable facilities to reduce and prevent hazard risks. The main purpose of this article is to present a new deformable gas safety apparatus, which could be used for safety storage, transportation and usage of volatile solvents. This safety apparatus has been used in actual production and transportation process, and received satisfactory results.
