摘要
A recognized procedure (evolved through preincident planning and fire scene size-up) for a pesticide storage fire is to let it burn. If the structural fire temperature can be raised to more than 1,800 degree F, thermal decomposition of the pesticides into less toxic products can be effected. The structure should be vented as much as possible so the fire can proceed in the free-burn stage. In deciding on a let-it-burn strategy, three factors of chemical destruction by combustion are considered: temperature, time and turbulence.
