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.
Lithium battery fires are extremely difficult to put out, they also burn for a long time and their reaction to the moisture in the air result in them being highly flammable. Due to their chemical structure, to date most Lithium battery fires have been managed with the use of water, with fire departments spraying a mist of water on the flames to cool the fire down, or dunking a car into a body of water and keeping it submerged over a period of time. For smaller fires fire extinguishers have been used to cool down the batteries. A hidden danger is that normal fire extinguishers battle to control fires on these types of batteries. While water can eliminate the fire, it only cools it down for a few seconds before the temperatures return to above 100 °C or 110 °C and the lithium-ion battery’s chemical reaction reignites the flames.
