Causes and prevention of packing fires
Fires in columns are dangerous and costly. Strict adherence to informed engineering practice and proper procedures reduce the probability of fires The probability of packing-fire damage and injury can be reduced with constant monitoring, egress assessment and fire snuffing procedures. Oxygen, combustible material and an ignition source, or chemical reaction, are required for a fire Water wash and steam-out do not remove or neutralize pyrophoric scale Zyme-Flow or potassium permanganate oxidize pyrophoric iron-sulfide scale to sulfates and sulfites. Packing-fire safety and economic risk reduction requires extensive prevention procedures and response procedures. Constant and complete wetting of packing has been shown as an effective fire-preventative measure. Packing fire prevention covers design, installation, shutdown maintenance planning and instruction, and strict implementation of fire-prevention plans.
