The publication covers lists of cylinders and valves with known restrictions on use in European Union Member States

This document is for designers, constructors and users of plant and equipment in the industrial gas industry as a guide to the problems they are liable to encounter due to noise generation at Industrial Gas production and distribution equipment, locations and customer sites.

This publication describes a standard method of calculating air emissions from an acetylene plant. The user can input their own information specific to their plant and obtain an estimate of the air emissions, which can be used for permit applications. This publication has an associated excel spreadsheet tool that can be used to calculate the emissions.

This publication aims to give recommendations and an overview of the gas industry's current practices to prevent and detect internal corrosion and to avoid overfilling carbon dioxide cylinders and bundles.

This publication provides guidance to minimise the effects of serious road vehicle incidents involving Gases Industry products by providing recommended guidance, training and procedures to be followed.

This publication describes the special requirements and techniques used in handling emergencies involving gas containers. It is intended to be a practical guide for the use of technically competent and trained practitioners.

This publication gives guidance on the key aspects of the periodic inspection and retesting of gas cylinders and gives a structure for the re-testing activity. he publication covers cylinder test stations for the following cylinder types: seamless steel; welded steel; seamless aluminium alloy; welded aluminium alloy; hoop wrapped composite; fully wrapped composite; and cylinders for dissolved acetylene.

This publication applies to gas cylinder packages. It covers the selection and use of specialized leak detection fluids that are suitable for industrial gases including medical and food gases that have particular compatibility requirements, though it may be used as a guideline when fluids are used for leak detection in other gas applications.

The primary objective of this document is to define a philosophy to determine suitable separation distances for all equipment, pipework and storage to allow member companies to develop consistent standards across the industry.
