When it comes to the optimum water additive for vehicle fires, the agent you run in your SOP should meet the following minimum criteria: 1. Combustible metals effectiveness 2. 3D flammable liquids effectiveness for spraying, running, cascading fuels where lives have to be quickly protected - made possible ONLY by rapid fire extinguishment 3. Consumes explosive vapors of any fuel as quickly as its applied 4. Performs to specification on ALL hazards fires and spills (lithium-ion, hydrogen, CNG, Propane, flammable liquids, metals, rubber) 5. Easily scalable to any size incident, fuel package, battery, or threat with common firefighting water supply, hoses, and everyday nozzles 6. Environmentally friendly - water and runoff contamination-reducing on all fuel types and spills 7. Improves life safety of civilians and firefighters when used for initial fire attack (implied readiness) Plain water nor any foam will meet these modern day requirements. Only F-500 Encapsulator Agent does.

The Hidden Threat: Understanding BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion) A BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion) is a violent rupture of a pressurized container when exposed to extreme heat, causing rapid vapor expansion. These incidents are rare but account for 8-10% of industrial explosions, often leading to fatalities, injuries, and significant property damage. Safety Tip: To prevent a BLEVE, ensure regular inspection, proper ventilation, and temperature monitoring of pressurized containers near heat sources. OSHA’s 1910.106 (Flammable Liquids) and NFPA standards emphasize the importance of proper storage, pressure relief systems, and fire protection for pressurized vessels containing flammable liquids. Staying compliant with safety regulations and training your team on early warning signs for preventing catastrophic events like BLEVE. hashtag #BLEVESafety, hashtag #IndustrialExplosion, hashtag #WorkplaceSafety, hashtag #FireProtection, hashtag #HazardPrevention, hashtag #OSHA1910, hashtag #NFPACompliance, hashtag #SafetyCulture, hashtag #AccidentPrevention, hashtag #EmergencyResponse

The phenomenon known as a Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion (BLEVE) is the result of a liquid within a container reaching a temperature well above its boiling point at atmospheric temperature, causing the vessel to rupture into two or more pieces. A BLEVE can occur when fire impinges on the LP tank shell at a point or points above the liquid level of the contents of the LP tank. This impingement causes the metal to weaken and fail from the internal pressure.

Thank you for sharing this video of catastrophic BLEVE. In my opinion, the integrity of tank plays a major role in preventing BLEVE. But made of steel, even w/o defects, it has limit against high pressure from expanding vapor from boiling liquid inside, and from intense heat of fire which weakens it. A combination of water sprayer and pressure relief should keep the tank under its breaking point. A computer simulation should be used to see the capacity of water sprayer and pressure relief needed.
