Bench-scale Studies on Suppressing Ghee Fires with Water Mist

Review on Water Mist Fire Suppression System

Water mist fire suppression system (WMFSS) is one of the candidates in substituting the Halogen-based total flooding system. The system with strong spray momentum gives a satisfactory performance in extinguishing solid fires, liquid fires as well as kitchen fires under no ventilation. Nozzle with high discharge momentum and low operating pressure are the goal. Water mist discharged is assumed t...

Protecting against Vapor Explosions with Water Mist

This paper examines a number of practical questions about the possibility of using water mist to mitigate explosion hazards in some industrial applications. Water mist systems have been installed to replace Halon 1301 in gas compressor modules on Alaska’s North Slope oil fields. The hazard in the compressor modules includes fire in lubrication oil lines for the gas turbines that drive the compr...

Removal of strontium from drinking water by conventional treatment and lime softening in bench-scale studies.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency Contaminant Candidate List 3 lists strontium as a contaminant for potential regulatory consideration in drinking water. Very limited data is available on strontium removal from drinking water and as a result, there is an immediate need for treatment information. The objective of this work is to evaluate the effectiveness of coagulation/filtratio...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
