How to put out the fire scientifically when the gas tank is on fire?

Don't panic when the gas tank is on fire. Be sure to call the fire telephone number 1 19 in time. If you want to put out the fire, you must not empty the gas tank with water. When the gas tank is on fire, dry powder, carbon dioxide and other fire extinguishers can be used to put out the fire. When using dry powder to put out the fire, if the dry powder is sprinkled on the root of the fire source, the fire will be put out immediately.

First of all, we must know that gas fire is not so terrible, so we must be calm. Many people mistakenly thought that the gas bottle would explode when it caught fire, so they ran away immediately. The fire could have been completely put out, but in the end it delayed the best extinguishing time and expanded the loss. So the correct way is that in case of fire, the most important thing is not to panic, but to be calm. Turning off the air supply is the key to extinguishing the fire.

A large number of people were very afraid of the explosion of gas tanks and fled the scene directly, waiting for the fire brigade to put out the fire. In fact, this kind of worry is unnecessary. As long as the cylinder is placed vertically, the liquid phase of liquefied petroleum gas in the cylinder is at the lower part and the gas phase is at the upper part. The gas can only burn at the nozzle of the cylinder, and the flame will not burn directly on the cylinder. The temperature of the cylinder will not rise rapidly, and the pressure in the cylinder will not rise rapidly to the explosion pressure of the cylinder, so the cylinder will not explode.

When we use the gas tank, we must pay attention to regularly check whether the gas tank will leak, which is also the most important thing now. Every time we change the tank, we should carefully check the rubber sealing ring of the liquefied gas tank and replace the aging sealing ring in time to prevent air leakage. The joint of the rubber tube connecting the cooker and the liquefied gas tank should be smeared with thick soapy water to check whether there is air leakage. If soap bubbles appear, it means air leakage, and it should be repaired at the liquefied gas station in time.
