The Most Effective Way To Deal With Lithium Fires
Stop Lithium Thermal Runaway With Vermiculite
Thermal Runaway: Lithium-ion batteries contain flammable electrolytes and highly reactive lithium, which can initiate a phenomenon known as thermal runaway. This occurs when a battery cell overheats, leading to a rapid increase in temperature that can spread to adjacent cells. Once thermal runaway begins, it can be difficult to control and can result in a violent and self-sustaining fire.
Intense Heat: Lithium battery fires can generate extremely high temperatures. During thermal runaway, the temperature inside the battery can exceed 1,000 degrees Celsius (1,800 degrees Fahrenheit). This intense heat can cause nearby combustible materials to ignite and contribute to the spread of the fire.
Release of Toxic Gases: Burning lithium-ion batteries can release hazardous gases and vapors, including toxic fumes and volatile organic compounds. These gases can pose health risks to people in the vicinity of the fire and can also be harmful to firefighters and emergency responders.
Fire Suppression Challenges: Traditional fire suppression methods may not be effective in extinguishing lithium battery fires. Water and foam, for example, can react with the lithium, exacerbating the fire and potentially causing explosions. CO2 can react with the chemical fire and produce deadly Carbon Monoxide.
Thermal Runaway Cascade: In large battery packs, such as those used in electric vehicles or energy storage systems, a single cell experiencing thermal runaway can trigger a cascade effect, leading to the failure of multiple cells and an even more severe fire. This can make containment and suppression efforts more difficult.
Specialized extinguishing agent, AVD Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion is required to control and extinguish lithium battery fires safely.
Fire Spreading and Re-ignition: Lithium battery fires can be challenging to extinguish completely. The intense heat generated can cause nearby combustible materials to catch fire, leading to the spread of the flames. Additionally, even if the fire appears to be extinguished, there is a risk of re-ignition due to residual heat or the presence of damaged or compromised battery cells.
