【Haichuan Safety Discussion】Can drones be used for chemical fire fighting?

2018-11-04View Original

Thread Content

As is well known, high-rise building fires have long been a serious problem around the world. Countries **are trying every possible means to address this issue, which affects the safety of people’s lives and property, but so far no better solution has been found. These days, many companies and organizations propose using drones to address firefighting in high-rise buildings, but this is not an easy task. Challenging issues such as how drones can deliver heavy firefighting equipment to high-rise buildings, how to extinguish fires accurately, how to avoid interference from various signals and obstacles, and how to prevent crashes of the drones. Relevant drone manufacturers should base their research and development of drones for fire fighting and rescue on real-world scenarios. They need to analyze the characteristics of fire scenes in different situations, identify the key challenges in this industry, and through such efforts they can develop a wider range of fire-fighting drones. This will help create a better market environment. It is hoped that the high-rise fire-fighting aircraft we have developed will prove to be highly effective in dealing with high-rise building fires in the future, thereby turning high-rise fire fighting into less of a global challenge.

Personally, I think it has merits as a detection method, but relying on it for firefighting operations doesn’t seem feasible for now; parameters such as a drone’s endurance, control system, and wind resistance may not be suitable for rescue operations at high heights!

These are all issues that are addressed through follow-up actions; at least they can be used for fire investigation. I see that there are two types: those controlled by wires and those controlled wirelessly. Which one is better?

The use of drones in firefighting, whether for extinguishing fires or for rescue operations, represents a completely new application; they may not be necessary in the future
