Pressure Vessel
What is a Pressure Vessel?
A
Pressure Vessel is a specially designed container used to hold gases or liquids at a pressure significantly different from the outside atmosphere. These are widely used in
Indian industries for
chemical processing,
steam generation,
gas storage, and more. The
pressure vessel design follows strict safety codes and standards like ASME, IS, and PED.
How Do Pressure Vessels Work?
Pressure vessels work by containing a fluid under pressure in a sealed chamber, ensuring safe and controlled operation. The wall thickness, material selection, and internal structure are engineered to handle the internal pressure, temperature, and chemical composition. These vessels come in horizontal, vertical, cylindrical, and spherical designs depending on the application.
Benefits of Using Pressure Vessels
- Allows safe storage and handling of gases and liquids under pressure
- Supports continuous industrial operation without breakdown
- Cuts down on manual operations and improves operational performance
- Custom designs for specific temperature and pressure requirements
Key Advantages
- Engineered as per Indian and global standards, including ASME Section VIII
- Available in stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, and FRP
- Designed to handle both high-pressure and low-pressure operations commonly seen in Indian industries
- Made using corrosion-resistant materials for long-lasting performance
- Fully tested and approved for safety and durability as per required industry guidelines
Types of Pressure Vessels
In Indian industries, pressure vessels are used for various operations — from storing compressed gases to handling chemical reactions. Depending on how they are designed and where they are used, pressure vessels are classified into the following types.
1. Horizontal Pressure Vessels
These vessels are laid horizontally and are commonly used in
oil & gas, water treatment, and chemical industries. Best for storage where vertical space is limited.
2. Vertical Pressure Vessels
Designed to stand tall, these are widely seen in
boilers, separators, and compressed air systems across Indian industries. Ideal when floor space is limited but vertical height is available.
3. Jacketed Pressure Vessels
These come with an extra jacket (layer) around the main vessel to
heat or cool the contents inside. Frequently seen in
pharmaceutical production, food processing setups, and reactor-based operations.
4. Skid-Mounted Pressure Vessels
These vessels are fixed on a steel skid or frame, making them
easy to move and install.
Best suited for
modular plants or mobile operations.
5. Storage Pressure Vessels
Used for storing
liquids or gases under pressure, such as LPG, nitrogen, or compressed air. Common in
refineries, factories, and gas plants.
6. Reactor Pressure Vessels
Designed to hold
chemical reactions under pressure and temperature, especially in chemical and petrochemical plants. Custom-built to handle
process-specific requirements.
7. Air Receiver Vessels
These are a type of vertical pressure vessel used to
store compressed air from compressors.
Found in most
engineering workshops, fabrication units, and power stations.
