Go back to Fire Suppression   Inert Gas (IG55, IG541) Inert Gas fire suppression systems, sometimes referred to as “Clean Agent” systems, use naturally occurring gases (pre-dominantly Nitrogen & Argon) to reduce Oxygen levels within a protected space to such an extent that the atmosphere within the space no longer supports combustion. A popular choice for Inert Gas fire suppression systems is IG55 which is 50% Argon / 50% Nitrogen mix. IG55 is a clean, odourless and ele...

  Chlorine (Cl2) is a gas that appears green/yellow and has a pungent, suffocating smell associated to the smell of bleach. Chlorine is in the ‘halogens’ gas family, alongside fluorine, bromine, and iodine. It is a toxic and corrosive gas that can irritate the human eyes and respiratory system. Chlorine doesn’t burn but supports combustion, similar to oxygen.     The creation of Chlorine dates back to the presence of ...

  Methane as gas is colourless and odourless. However, it is highly flammable. The compound is made of carbon-hydrogen. Methane is slightly soluble in water and burns readily in the air to form carbon dioxide and water vapour. One of methane's most significant risks is its flammability, as it can cause deadly explosions resulting in disasters in confined spaces like mines. Methane (CH4) is commonly known to be a greenhouse gas that has a negative impact...

  Ethane (C2H6), like methane, pentane and butane, is colourless and odourless hydrocarbon. It also makes up a proportion of natural gas and is most popularly known for its presence in petroleum oil and is a by-product of oil refineries. Ethane can be liquified under pressure or at reduced temperatures to be separated from natural gas. Ethane is a hydrocarbon alongside methane and pentane and, when it undergoes hydrocarbon combustion, gives off heat. &n...

  The incomplete combustion of fuels produces carbon monoxide (CO), an odourless and colourless gas. When people are exposed to CO gas, the CO molecules in their bodies displace oxygen, causing poisoning.  Our senses cannot identify Carbon Monoxide since it has no odour, colour, or taste. As a result, deadly gas levels can accumulate indoors, with people having no way of detecting the problem until they get unwell. Furthermore, the symptoms of ...

Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) is a chemical asphyxiant with a musky and almond-like smell that is slightly light blue in colour. However, some people often cannot smell it, making it even more dangerous as people can often not be aware of its presence, regardless of the concentration levels. Hydrogen Cyanide also mixes very well with air and can create a hazardous explosive mixture. HCN's boiling point is 26 celsius and its melting point is -13 Celcius.  Hydrogen...

  Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) is a colourless gas but has a very strong smell of rotten eggs. It is an asphyxiant, flammable and explosive gas risk, making it a hazardous gas. H2S exists naturally and is produced by human and animal waste, exists naturally in volcanic gases, and is a by-product of industrial activity. It is very toxic by inhalation. H2S has a melting point of -85.7 Celsius and a boiling point of -60.2 Celcius.     H2S affects t...

  Nitric Oxide (NO) or nitrogen monoxide is a colourless gas with a sharp, sweet smell. It is made of an oxygen atom and nitrogen atom and is formed by the oxidation of nitrogen.  It has the same boiling and melting point - 151.8 Celcius.   Nitric oxide has lots of health benefits for the human body. The human body produces nitric oxide, which is very important for human health. It supports vasodilation, which relaxes the inner muscles of b...

  Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), made of nitrogen and oxygen, is a red/brown gas with an odour that has been described as irritating. It is a very poisonous gas and is toxic when inhaled and absorbed through the skin. Nitrogen dioxide is a part of a group of gases called the oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Nitrogen dioxide is typically used in applications such as the manufacturing of chemical explosives and is an oxidiser in rocket fuel. Nitrogen Dioxide has a melting p...

  Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) is a heavy, colourless, poisonous gas that smells pungent - like a match when first lit and is deemed a toxic and corrosive chemical. Sulphur Dioxide is a combination of sulphur and oxygen created predominately through sulphuric acid manufacturing and combustion of sulphur fuels. It has a melting point of -75.5 Celcius and a boiling point of -10.    Applications such as coal and electric power plants, oil refineries ...

  Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colourless gas with a sour taste and a mild harsh odour. It is one of the most important greenhouse gases linked to global warming, but it is a minor component of the Earth's atmosphere (about 3 volumes in 10,000), formed in the combustion of carbon-containing materials, fermentation, and animal respiration, and used by plants in carbohydrate photosynthesis.   Jan Baptista van Helmont, a Belgian scientist, ident...

Risks of Hydrogen in the Power Industry The use of hydrogen as an energy source is not new. Historically, it has been used to power combustion engines or as a rocket fuel or gas turbine component to generate electricity. Refineries in the oil and gas sector use the extra hydrogen produced by the catalytic reforming of naphtha as fuel for other unit operations. In addition, various processes can result in the production of hydrogen. For instance, in the chemical industry, chlorine production produ...
