🚨 Survitec's White Paper Urges Reform of Methanol Fire Safety Guidelines 🚨 Survitec Group Ltd. has just unveiled a crucial White Paper that highlights urgent needs for reform in fire safety standards for methanol-fuelled vessels. 📄🔥 The new study, ‘Do We Need New Fire Safety Standards for Methanol?’, presented at the SMM trade fair in Hamburg, Germany, reveals significant gaps in current fire-fighting methods. 🚢💧 Survitec's research shows that conventional water mist-based systems and traditional foams fall short when dealing with methanol fires. 🔍🛠️ Key findings include: Inadequacy of Current LAFF Systems: Existing water mist systems are ineffective against methanol fires. 🚫💦 Need for Enhanced Foam Solutions: Survitec has developed new nozzles that improve foam effectiveness. 🧯🔧 Call for Comprehensive Guidelines: There’s a pressing need for updated standards and testing protocols for methanol fire safety. 📜⚠️ Survitec is calling on industry stakeholders to collaborate on creating clear standards and robust safety measures to protect vessels and crews. 🤝🛡️ 👉 Download the full White Paper for more details #Bunkering #Methanol #FireSafety #Maritime #Survitec #Innovation #SafetyStandards #MarineIndustry #SMM2024 #MPASingapore #PortOfRotterdam #MethanolBunkering #BunkerMarket #ShippingNews SMM Hamburg #MethanolInstitute Methanol Institute https://lnkd.in/dvmk4yP8

Many years ago, it was common for people to simply abandon their septic systems and tanks. Nowadays, there are safety regulations in place by counties and governing bodies that help to prevent unsafe abandoned septic systems. These older tanks that have been left unattended for years can pose many hazards, including instabilities in the ground and toxic chemicals. If you have a reason to be concerned about the status of an abandoned septic system, seek a professional inspection. #SepticSystems #SepticTanks #FloridaSeptic #AdvancedSepticServices

Can anyone spot where the AIB is in this picture? 😂 Usually asbestos insulating board is not that easy to spot. Several layers of paint, over boarding and the creative ways in which it was used by previous generations can make it very tricky. Before starting work on any pre 1999 building make sure there’s an asbestos survey report in place and reference it so you know where the asbestos is and you don’t disturb it. And don’t forget if it does need to be disturbed, worked on, repaired or removed, give us a shout to see how we can help. 👍 #asbestos #asbestosawareness #asbestostesting #asbestosremoval #asbestosabatement

Fires can start anywhere on farm. 🔥 From the tool shed to the harvester in the field. With the right conditions and spark, anything can ignite. But its important in that moment to know what to do – and most importantly what to grab. Not all extinguishers are the same and grabbing the wrong one in panic may make the situation worse off! See our Toolbox Talk for what you need to know about Fire Extinguishers on Farm. 🧯 https://hubs.ly/Q029wSTB0 #farmsafety #agriculture #farming #agtech #safetysystem #safetymanagement #safetyandcompliance #healthandsafety #WHS #OHS #safetyandhealth #safeagsystems #keepsafekeepfarming

Just like Ryno mentioned, achieving peace of mind after asbestos removal requires verification. Here at Ryno's Group, safety is our top priority, so we recommend separate inspections to ensure all traces of asbestos are gone. A clearance inspection after removal, conducted by a different licensed assessor, provides an unbiased confirmation of a successful job: ✅ Independent Eyes: A separate assessor brings a fresh perspective, free from potential conflicts of interest. ✅ Thorough Inspection: They'll meticulously check the removal area for any remaining asbestos fragments. ✅ Air Quality Monitoring: Airborne asbestos fibres are a major concern. Monitoring ensures a safe environment for you and your family. ✅ Clearance Certificate: Your Guarantee of Safety If the clearance inspection finds no asbestos concerns, you'll receive a clearance certificate. This document confirms the area is safe for reoccupation and further renovations. Get a free quote today!
