Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Assessment of hazards of flammable and combustible liquids in composite IBCs in operations scenarios

Publicación: Quincy : The Fire Protection Research Foundation, 2011Notas: Sumario: NFPA 30 Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code provides specific guidance for both containment and fire protection of Listed IBCs containing flammable and combustible liquids in storage configurations. However, a common usage scenario involves the use of non-Listed, composite IBCs containing flammable/combustible liquids in operations scenarios. The code does not provide specific fire protection criteria for these applications. The only guidance provided, to date, relates to the quantities of liquids that are permitted in such scenarios. Historically, the protection schemes prescribed in NFPA 30 have been based on experimental testing and engineering analysis. In keeping with this approach, the goal of this work is to identify protection strategies that can be evaluated in general accordance with Appendix E of NFPA 30. If adequate performance is identified, it might be implemented into the codeMateria / lugar / evento: Seguridad contra incendios Líquidos inflamables Líquidos combustibles Normativa Códigos NFPA Almacenamiento de combustibles NFPA-30 Otros autores: Fire Protection Research Foundation
