Fireblock Cool Coal
FIREBLOCK COAL COOL – is used very successfully in the coal industry. Our method is that the burning or smouldering coal is spread out and sprayed with FIREBLOCK COAL COOL. The product then seeps between the coal coating it and removing the heat from the coal.
Today we find lithium batteries in almost every household in the form of cell phones, laptops, hybrid, or electric cars (EV), UPS, solar systems (lithium solar batteries) RV/Campers, electric scooters, bicycles and golf carts, torches, and a variety of other items.
Due to the presence of lithium batteries in our lives, there is a large chance of having to deal with one of these batteries catching alight in your day-to-day life.
Lithium batteries are known to burn extremely hot and have the habit of spontaneously reigniting hours or even days after they have been extinguished. The smoke from Lithium batteries is also potentially dangerous and toxic. With the capacity to cause irritation of the eyes, skin, nasal and even death. In addition, the smoke affects the environment.
FIREBLOCK COAL COOL IS NON-TOXIC AND 100%
Overtime coal oxidises and will spontaneously combust. Additional environmental factors such as sun and wind will accelerate the period taken for the coal to combust. Once a stockpile starts burning, it is very hard to contain and extinguish, as the fire generates its own heat. With coal, these fires can quickly get out of control and the chances of the stockpiles reigniting, are high.
Coal fires are a hazard to the environment, they release harmful greenhouse gases and fine particles into the atmosphere, which are dangerous for the health and safety of communities in the area. The water used to attempt to cool the stockpiles flows into nearby water sources, polluting them. FIREBLOCK COAL COOL is a nontoxic, environmentally friendly product that is used in the prevention of stockpile fires.
To prevent or stop a stockpile from burning the heat or oxygen must be removed Removing the heat from a stockpile is difficult due to the size of the stockpiles of coal. The amount of coal packed into a tight area causes the temperature to rise, and this heat is not able to escape. Coal mines are known to move the stockpiles regularly to disperse of this heat and cool it down, but at large costs to the coal mine with machinery, diesel and manpower and the burnt coal that cannot be sold is a huge loss to the coal industry.
