Work Item

ASTM WK90956

New Specification for ASTM D37.04 Compressed Gas Quality and Safety Initiative

1. Scope

Foster collaboration between industry, consumers and regulators; Develop specifications, test methods, guides and best practices related to compressed gas quality and safety; Focus efforts of ASTM D37 members interested in creating compressed gas quality and safety standards in one place

Keywords

liquefied petroleum gas; compressed gas; CO2; butane; propane; LPG; cannabinoids

Rationale

Bad gas can lead to contaminated end-user products as well as process inefficiencies, but without specifications, there is no way of knowing if the bad gas came from the supplier or the operator. This task group shall address these among other gaps related to compressed gases, cylinders used to house these, and best practices at the licensed operator.
