There are several types of rupture disks used in catalytic processes, including:
Forward-acting disks: These disks are designed to rupture when the pressure on the convex side exceeds the designated limit. Reverse-acting disks: These rupture when the pressure on the concave side exceeds the specified limit, often used in high-cycling applications. Composite disks: These consist of multiple layers, including a sealing layer and a rupture layer, providing enhanced performance and higher precision in pressure settings.
