Horton Sphere
The Horton sphere is a spherical pressure vessel, which is used for storage of compressed gases such as propane, Liquefied petroleum gas or butane in a liquid gas stage.〔(Hortonsphere® Pressure Vessels, CB&I )〕
==History==

'Horton sphere' or 'Hortonsphere' is named after Horace Ebenezer Horton (1843-1912), founder and financier of a bridge design and construction firm in about 1860, merged to form the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company (CBI) in 1889 as a bridge building firm and constructed the first bulk liquid storage tanks in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. CBI built the first field-erected spherical pressure vessels in the world at the Port Arthur, Texas refinery in 1923,〔(CB&I History 1920-1949 )〕 and subsequently claimed 'Hortonsphere' as a registered trademark.〔(Justia Trademark Details Justia.com )〕 A patent was lodged on Sept 23, 1947 to address the problem of damage to the supports caused by heat expansion.〔(US Patents, George T. HORTON 2,427,676 )〕
Because of their distinctive form, some have become subject to conservation campaigns such as that at Poughkeepsie NY.〔(Central Hudson Gas and Electric Horton Sphere, Poughkeepsie )〕
