MC/DOT 306/406 tanker used to transport flammable fuels, such as gasoline and diesel fuel. [Pg.223]

The boiling point of a liquid is defined as the point at which one of the following occurs  [Pg.224]

Flash point has to do with which of the following temperatures  [Pg.224]

Liquids that have low boiling points will also have low  [Pg.224]

High flash point liquids have what type of vapor pressure  [Pg.224]


Acetic acid, naphthalene, camphor, glycerol, turpentine, alcohol or other flammable liquids... [Pg.233]

Chromic acid and chromium trioxide Chlorine Acetic acid, naphthalene, camphor, glycerol, turpentine, alcohol or other flammable liquids Ammonia, acetylene, butadiene, butane or other petroleum gases, hydrogen, sodium carbide, turpentine, benzene or finely divided metals... [Pg.165]

Steam-generating plants, air compressor plants, and similar plants should be provided with potassium bicarbonate dry chemical extinguishers (120-B C) for Class B or Class C fires in the areas containing hydrocarbons or other flammable liquids. For fires in electrical equipment, at least one extinguisher (10-B C) should be provided. If Class Afire hazards exist, multipurpose dry chemical extinguishers (20-A 80-B C) or water extinguishers should be provided. [Pg.231]

Hydrogen peroxide Copper, chromium, iron, most other metals or their salts, alcohols, acetone, or other flammable liquids, aniline, nitromethane, or other organic or combustible materials... [Pg.697]

Nitric acid (cone.) Acetic acid, aniline, chromic acid, acetone, alcohol, or other flammable liquids, hydrocyanic acid, hydrogen sulfide, or other flammable gases, nitratable substances copper, brass, or any heavy metals (or will generate nitrogen dioxide/nitrous fumes)... [Pg.698]

NFPA 30,4.4.3.3 NFPA 30,4.4.3.4 29CFR1910.106(d)(4) (V) 4.3.1 Aisles in areas that qualify as indoor liquid storage areas as per NFPA 30, "Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code", shall be 4 ft wide. Aisles in other flammable liquid storage areas shall be 6 ft wide. [Pg.198]

De-Icing Fluids. Frequently contain large proportions of alcohol or other flammable liquids. lATAApp. A... [Pg.22]

If gasoline or any other flammable liquid, combustible liquid, or gas seeps or leaks from a fuel container or a commercial motor vehicle stopped upon a highway, flame-producing warning signals may only be placed at a distance from the liquid or gas that will assure the prevention of a fire or explosion. [Pg.584]

Fire hazards are reduced by ensuring that combustible material is correctly stored, and that chemicals and other flammable liquids do not come into contact with sources of ignition and other combustibles. [Pg.136]

The costs of Tlammable-Material Storage refrigerators and freezers are usually two to four times higher than comparable products to be used in the home. As a result, many individuals object to a blanket policy requiring the purchase of these safer units, especially those who are not using the refiigerators in their laboratories to store solvents or other flammable liquids. There are several valid... [Pg.198]

Class B fire—That which involves grease, paint, or other flammable liquids. [Pg.474]

Petroleum wastes or other flammable liquid wastes are often burned for energy recovery. Relatively small amounts recovered from a spill can be shipped to a fuel blender, who mixes flammable waste liquids to achieve acceptable physical and chemical properties and markets the resulting material as fuel. Flammable wastes are sometimes burned at cement kilns for energy recovery because cement manufacture is highly energy-intensive. In the United States, facilities that recover energy from hazardous wastes are regulated under the RCRA Boiler and Industrial Furnace (BIF) Rules. [Pg.642]

Individual companies, trade associations and professional bodies have issued guidance on area classifications for their particular sectors. For example, the Institute of Petroleum s and the Association for Petroleum and Explosives Administration s publication Guidance for the design, construction, modification and maintenance of petrol filling stations contains, at Chapter 3, comprehensive guidance on hazardous area classification at petrol filling stations. For petroleum and other flammable liquids in containers and bulk storage, reference should be made to HSE booklets ... [Pg.258]

Hydrogen, like all fuels, must be carefully handled. However, taking all things into account, it does not present any greater potential for danger than any other flammable liquids or gases in common use today. In some applications, for example boats, it has... [Pg.281]

The most obvious sign of the presence of some form of fire accelerant is the smell. Petrol and other flammable liquids tend to soak, unbumt, into carpets and other furnishings. Flammable substances will often continue to vaporise after the fire has been extinguished and therefore can be detected by smell or specialist sensing equipment. Another classic sign that a fire has involved flammable liquids is the presence of circular or running burn patterns on floors or walls surfaces. [Pg.301]
