How to handle a fire in a residue tank?

2016-06-01View Original

Thread Content

Many residue oil storage tanks are now designed and equipped with fixed foam fire suppression systems. If a fire breaks out in such a tank and foam is used to extinguish it, water in the pipelines can enter the tank, causing the residue oil to boil violently and leading to more serious accidents. Does anyone have any good solutions? In the past, fire suppression steam systems were installed, but this is no longer included in the designs nowadays.

Current designs generally use fire foam for extinguishing fires. If you determine that there is water in the fire foam pipeline system, it is recommended to have a foam fire truck deliver fire foam at the quick-connect fitting on site.

Since there is a concern about water accumulation, we need to find ways to avoid it~~
