These facilities are supplemented by an additional network of seven specialty and electronic gases plants capable of producing a broad array of high-purity gases and precise mixtures. Bulk gases are produced and distributed at more than 60 locations in North America. Our comprehensive Quality Assurance Program maintains EPA conformance. In addition, working closely with NIST and the EPA for more than two decades has enabled the development of highly stable reactive gas mixtures and cylinders that ensure maximum shelf life and meet all regulatory specifications for accuracy. BOC also uses a cylinder documentation system that meets and exceeds EPA Protocol documentation requirements.
Cylinders are shrink-wrapped and covered with mesh netting.
A plastic pouch attached to the cylinder keeps the certificate of analysis, which contains all of the information required by the EPA, with the cylinder from delivery to return. A certificate of analysis label, affixed to the side of the cylinder, and an analytical tag, tied to the valve stem, further ensure that required documentation is readily available. A duplicate of the certificate of analysis is mailed to you for your files. BOC Gases has a staff of specialists with extensive knowledge of utility and cogeneration operations. We understand the strict emissions guidelines imposed on utilities, cogeneration plants, and hazardous waste incinerators.
