Fire and explosion protection
Fires and explosion are the most damaging events for the industrial sector. In addition to direct harm on workers and environment, they potentially lead to a chemical contamination generating environmental and financial impact. The nature of used substances and the parameters allowing ignition to happen are often only partially known.
