Valve or vessel failure

www.mrw.co.uk 12 January 2011 (approx 9 am).

According to media reports, Sterecycle has confirmed the cause of the explosion will be investigated, but it is thought there was a sudden loss of pressure due to the failure of one of the pressure valves used in the waste treatment process.

We now have some confusion. Was it a valve or vessel that exploded, or was it a valve that failed that led to a sudden loss of pressure that caused the vessel to fail?
