Function
A gas holder provides storage for purified, metered gas. It acts as a buffer, removing the need for continuous gas production. The weight of the gas holder lift (cap) controlled the pressure of the gas in the mains and provided back pressure for the gas-making plant.[12]
They are the only storage method that keeps gas at district pressure (the pressure required in local gas mains).
