Vacuum Implosion

Don't take a submarine too deep.

That was cool.

Those vacuum trucks are indispensable in the refinery and chemical plants. I've watched them do all kinds of stuff, from sucking nasty, burnt crude out of pipes after a unit fire to filling large 24" lines with water and hydro testing them.

vacuum is very good to use

They use vacuum lines to clear acids and other chemicals from the machines that make microchips.

A suckjob is better than a blowjob ?

Do they use vacuums or create a vacuum ?

Not sure what they were trying to prove there, cylinders are only useful when pressurized from the inside , atmospheric pressure will kill them every time , unless you design them to withstand extern pressure that is

I would have thought their real value would be in creating a vacuum in the system to boil off any hydrocarbons or other volatiles that may be present in the system

If its an open ended situation I cant see that there would be any difference between sucking and blowing

I did not realise that. Makes sense.
