Flammable Liquids Videos

A collection of flammable liquid safety videos.   If you have ANY amount of flammable liquids, these are a MUST SEE for the workers who work with and around flammable liquids.  Most of the segments are VERY SHORT (<1 minute) and are designed to be used as safety talks.  Some are from the Chemical Safety Board and are more detailed training for those facilities who store and handle flammables in a flammable liquids process. I use them in my 3 & 5 days flammable liquid training courses.  SOME THINGS DO NOT CHANGE – some of these videos are from the 1940’s and 60’s and STILL TODAY depict the hazards of flammable liquids!

Can an atmospheric diesel storage tank BLEVE? (Video)

/ Flammable Liquids Videos /

I am not 100% convinced this was a “diesel tank”.  Having seen over a dozen diesel tanks explode (most in tests) this explosion looks nothing like it.  It is not a boil-over either, but I am pretty sure the FD would know the difference between LPG tank and a diesel tank.  In what I can…...
