The vessel of claim 1, wherein the valve further comprises silicon-based material. 13. The vessel of claim 1, wherein a minimum pressure of between 0.5 and 0.6 Kgf/cm2is required to compress the valve. lastic, inserted into the void to provide reinforcement to said double-walls; d) each side-panel having a plurality of bottom male extensions and said pallet-base having a plurality of female receptacles on each side of said pallet-base top surface, said bottom male extensions configured to engage within the female receptacles of said pallet-base and each side-panel and each end-panel having a plurality of segmented horizontal end extensions on opposing ends, said end-panel segmented horizontal end extensions engage and inter-mesh with said side-panel segmented horizontal end extensions and said end-panel and side-panel corner extensions having at least one opening on top and one opening on the bottom, said top and bottom openings concentrically match in perpendicularity; e) said end-panel having means for securing the end of said end-panel at the bottom of said end-panel to the end of said pallet-base, said end-panel having corner end extensions engaging with said end-panel segmented horizontal end extensions on opposing ends, said end-panel corner end extensions having at least one opening on top and one opening on the bottom, said top and bottom openings concentrically match in perpendicularity; f) said side-panel, and said end-panel having means for holding together a corner point where said side-panel extensions and said end-panel extensions inter-mesh, wherein the openings in the horizontal end extensions of said side-panel and said end-panel corner extensions inter-mesh vertically and concentrically; g) said side-panel and said end-panel and said pallet-base having means for ventilation and air circulation when required by food handling applications; h) said pallet-base having means for supporting a load within said bin at said pallet-base center when a bin is stacked on top of another bin; i) said side-panel and said end-panel having means for reinforcing respective top corners of engagement to provide suitable strength minimizing the tearing out of the top corner of said side-panel; j) said side-panel having means for internal supporting and reinforcing the side-panel longitudinally at the top, and at both ends for protection against forklift truck abuse; k) said end-panel having reinforcing means for internal supporting and reinforcing the end-panel at the top and the top corner of said side-panel for protection along the full horizontal length of the top front edge of said end-panel to provide protection against forward impact by front fork tine edges of a forklift truck, and said end panel having fastening means at opposing ends to secure top reinforcing means to said side-panel at the corners; and l) said side-panels and said end-panels each having a plurality of notches at an outer vertical edge of the corners to provide a location to accommodate tie-down rope placement. 2. The reinforced double-wall knock-down bin according to claim 1 further comprising, said side-panel bottom extensions having removable female fastening means and said pallet-base having removable male fastening means which engage with said female fastening means to secure said side-panel to said pallet-base. 3. The reinforced double-wall knock-down bin according to claim 1 further comprising an inter-meshed corner at each interface between said side-panel and said end-panel, said corners are aligned so that the openings, on the horizontal surfaces of said side-panel and said end-panel are vertically concentric, wherein each corner having a corner post fabricated of a material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal tubing and solid rod inserted vertically, from an underside bottom corner opening of said pallet-base is disposed within the openings of said side-panel and said end-panel extension members so as to secure the interconnected panel members, an underside pallet-base corner outer leg opening having a parallel key-slot access channel enabling insertion of an elongated long nose pliers to grab onto the bottom end o f said corner post to extract said corner post to facilitate component replacement. 4. The reinforced double-wall knock-down bin according to claim 1 wherein said pallet-base having a pair of outer legs and a center leg, and opposing ends of said pallet-base having a horizontal tongue between each outer pallet-base leg and the center leg, said end-panel having a first set of horizontal grooves at the bottom forming a tongue-and-groove lock with the tongue. 5. The reinforced double-wall knock-down bin according to claim 4 wherein opposing ends of the outer legs and center leg of said pallet-base having horizontal openings on vertical adjacent walls in concentric alignment, said bin having a plurality of bottom end rods with each bottom end rod inserted into said horizontal openings on the outer legs and center leg with said bottom end rod having end fastening means disposed on each end said rod having a predetermined length to allow concealment of end fastening means within a profile of said pallet-base outer-wall. 6.
