Yes, Scuba cylinders can be cleaned and they are if they are going to be used with oxygen enriched air (i.e. nitrox). There is a debate whether they need to be cleaned if used for "low" oxygen nitrox if the nitrox is premixed.

What legal requirements do you need to scuba dive?

There are no legal requirements to scuba dive. In other words, anyone can scuba dive without breaking a law (assuming you are not doing an illegal underwater activity such as illegal fishing).

What do engraved markings in scuba tanks indicate?

Scuba tanks are marked with different stamps. Some of these stamps are put on the tank at manufacture and some are added periodically when a cylinder is tested. The main stamps put on the cylinder at manufacture indicate the manufacturer, the volume of the cylinder, the working pressure and the test pressure. The test stamps are put on the cylinder by testing stations to indicate that the cylinder is safe to use. These test stamps have the date and a testing station stamp.


How does gaseous exchange in a scuba tank occur?

????? gaseous exchange INSIDE the scuba cylinder? There is no exchange of gasses in the cylinder, that is done in the LUNGS! A scuba Cylinder (or Tank for the americans) is a basic unit that holds compressed Gas (either AIR -21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen) NITROX (anything from 22% to 40% oxygen) Heliox (18% oxygen 40% helium rest nitrogen) All that occurs is that the unit supplies the gas inside to a REGULATOR system fitted to the valve then to the Demand valve in the divers mouth. No gas EXCHANGE is done here at all, only pressure restrictions. Gas exchange happens once the Gas has entered the Lungs, there the Alveoli take the gas (mostly the oxygen) and pass it to the blood stream, and pass the Carbon Dioxide back into the lungs to breathe out.

Is there scuba masks with oxygen in them?

Scuba masks do not contain oxygen. Instead, scuba divers rely on a separate piece of equipment called a tank or cylinder to supply compressed air or a breathing gas mixture for underwater breathing. The scuba mask's purpose is to provide a clear field of vision and to create an airspace for the diver's eyes and nose while underwater.
