The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) states around 1,400 fires annually happen because flammable or combustible liquids first were ignited. Approximately $76 million dollars of direct property damage happens each year.
Consider the typical vehicle explosion in movies. Environmental Health & Safety magazine explained that just “1 gallon of vaporized gasoline can explode with the same force as 20 sticks of dynamite.” This is an explanation for why hazards of often volatile flammable liquids, like gasoline, are mostly well known.
There are many uses for flammable and combustible liquids. They often are used in day-to-day operations at industrial and commercial sites as fuels, solvents, and cleaners. Although, flammable liquids are volatile and can start fires.
