ASME Pressure vessels are tanks that are process specific and designed to contain one or more reactive agents at pressures higher than 15 psi. Endothermic or Exothermic reactions occur inside the pressure vessel, and the volatility of the contained reaction and the amount of temperature change are both key elements to a propper heated pressure vessel design. Tank & Vessel Builders manufactures custom pressure vessels of all sizes to Sec. VIII Div. 1 and Sec. I of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Each unit is designed to your specifications and under goes all code required documentation from reciept of material to shipment of final assembly.

Welded Steel tanks are available in virtually any size or with any dimensions, from 1, 000 gallons to 34, 000, 000 gallons or larger.

It has a minimum roof plate thickness of .1875", a minum shell plate thickness of .1875", and a minimum floor plate thickness of .2500". All the joints in the tank are welded, fusing the entire tank into one solid piece, thus making it very sturdy and durable.
