Can I safely use a cutting torch on a stainless steel vessel containing traces of aluminum sulfate solution? Am I likely to generate hydrogen during the cutting process?

29 August 2011 at 1:29pmI am not an expert on welding and torch cutting so I cannot answer your question specifically. However, I can recommend that you consult professional organizations such as the American Welding Society (AWS) for further information. AWS is a source for numerous technical publications on welding and cutting and many of the safety related publications are free of charge. One place to start might be AWS/ANSI Standard Z49.1 "Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes" which is available for no cost at the AWS website (http://www.aws.org/safety/).
