Fires involving Natural and Propane Gas


Fire involving LNG & LPG


We need a license to drive, get married, be buried, fly a plane, carry a weapon etc.


However

Anyone can buy LNG and/or LPG equipment, live in a home, house, building,

motor-home, cook on a Gas grill, replace gas tanks and so on without a license?

I was going to write about our veterans and homeless freezing in this weather

However

No one in government really cares about our veterans/homeless!

Proof


We still have homeless and veterans freezing in plain sight!

Fire involving LNG & LPG cargo - various fire fighting agents & safety aspects

Water extinguishing :

Water is not a suitable medium for fighting an LNG fire directly as it will cause a massive expansion of the fire, through an increase in the rate of vaporization of the liquid to gaseous state. Water is however essential as a cooling medium for the area surrounding an LNG fire and to protect personnel who may need to approach the site. Water is also essential for protecting steel work from the effects of extreme cold in the event of a liquid spill.
