Fires in Enclosures
The environmental impact from enclosure fires is explored in this chapter. Main influencing parameters that are discussed are (i) fire dynamics, (ii) the incident response and the (iii) post-fire remediation activities. In this chapter, the discussion of fire dynamics includes the influence of the enclosure on the fire growth, and the influence of the combustion conditions, compartment size and fire loads on the fully developed fire. Incident response is considered in order to understand the impact of response tactics including time of extinguishment, amount and type of suppressant on the overall environmental impact of the fire, together with other environmental impacts from the fire and rescue service. The third influencing parameter on the environmental impact from enclosure fires, post-fire remediation, deals with the environmental impact from replacement of materials and structures including restoration of the fire site. It is noted that this last factor can be significant and is often overlooked. Finally, the application of life cycle thinking to sprinkler systems in enclosures, and fires including industrial chemicals are discussed briefly in this chapter.
