💣 Explosive Limits of Gas Certain conditions must exist for a fire or explosion to occur involving flammable gases. The gas and oxygen must exist in specific proportions to create an optimal ratio. With an ignition source, such as a spark or flame, the gas will ignite or combust. However, the fuel and oxygen ratio will vary depending upon the gas or vapor in the area. The minimum concentration of a specific gas or vapor that will support combustion is defined as the Lower Explosive Limit for that gas. Below this level, the mixture is considered too lean to burn. This means that there is too much air and not enough gas present. The maximum concentration of a gas or vapor that will burn is defined as the Upper Explosive Limit. Anything above this level is considered too rich to burn. There is too much gas present and not enough air. But between the range of the Lower Explosive Limit and the Upper Explosive Limit, combustible and flammable gases will burn or explode. 💥 Temperature, pressure, and the concentration of the oxidizer also influences flammability limits. Higher temperature or pressure, as well as higher concentration of the oxidizer (primarily oxygen in air), results in lower LFL and higher UFL, hence the gas mixture will be easier to explode. #fire #explode #explosive #flammabilitiy #oxygen #air #LFL #UFL #LPG #LNG #gas #oil #refinery #plant #facilities #range #inspection #mainteanace #safety #learning #engineering

It is not only the flow rates but also the piping geometry which define the flow regime 💦. In this video, we can observe two different flow regimes for the same flow rates of liquid and gas phases thanks to the piping geometry. If you need more information or details, please feel free to contact us (CERG). We will be more than glad to help you with our knowledge and expertise in multiphase flows.

🚨 Deadly Hydrogen Sulfide Leak at Pemex Refinery in Texas 🚨 A hydrogen sulfide leak at the Pemex refinery in Deer Park, Texas, resulted in the tragic deaths of two workers and left 35 others injured. The incident occurred in a unit undergoing maintenance, prompting a shelter-in-place order for the surrounding area, which has since been lifted. Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez confirmed that “air monitoring has returned to safe levels,” though authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the leak. Hydrogen sulfide is an extremely hazardous gas, with even low-level exposure posing serious risks to human health. This event highlights the importance of rigorous safety protocols and emergency preparedness in industrial settings, especially when dealing with hazardous materials. #WorkplaceSafety #IndustrialSafety #EmergencyResponse #SafetyNews #NASP

𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 ✅ We have expanded our range of fuel filters to include LPG filters (Art.-No.: J133*LPG), which meet the highest quality standards. LPG, short for Liquefied Petroleum Gas, is a liquid gas that is increasingly being used in combustion engines. Initially, we are offering three different LPG fuel filters. These high-performance and durable filters effectively remove foreign substances from the LPG, enhancing the service life and efficiency of vehicle engines. Regular replacement of the filters ensures an optimal fuel supply.   #herthundbuss #elparts #lpgfilter #filters #automotive #aftermarket

Chemical production involves the use and production of many hazardous substances, including both toxic and hydrocarbon gases. Rosemount gas detectors monitor and detect toxic and combustible gas vapors, triggering warning systems to help keep workers safe. Learn more: http://emr.as/scgE50S41by

Client AIRpplications: Thermal exhaust air purification with fans from Elektror Burning exhaust gases with super-hot air: In thermal oxidation, pollutants are converted from the exhaust air into harmless substances through combustion. The right air mixture is important here. In a large air purification plant in Finland, four of our CFM1, CFH3 and CFXH2 centrifugal fans blow fresh and exhaust air into the plant, distribute the combustion air and ensure the necessary air circulation. We have developed and manufactured the steel fans specifically for the required operating points of the system. Together, they can move up to 1,335,000 m³ of air per hour. #WeAreElektror #Products #Projects #ExhaustGas

𝗖𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐞: Achieving savings on MGO fuel, no fuel replacement, less downtime, total savings 988,944 EUR 💡 🔴 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦: The MGO fuel in the storage tank of an LNG tanker was contaminated with sea water and asphaltenes built-up due to residues of heavy fuel. This led to several issues for one of their engines: Pilot injectors stuck in an open position, fuel injection equipment sticking, in-line filters and centrifugal purifiers clogging that required manual cleaning. The current separators were unable to remove the high concentration of sea water in the fuel. 🔴 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭: The MGO fuel has been cleaned to standard and the need to replace and debunker the fuel have been removed, which has resulted in 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝟗𝟖𝟖,𝟗𝟒𝟒 𝐄𝐔𝐑. In addition, the engines were running smoothly after the CJC® installation, leading to less downtime, while the OPEX and sludge accumulation have also been reduced.
