A gas flooding system is a safety measure used in industrial settings, particularly in oil and gas facilities, to prevent fires or explosions. It involves flooding an area with inert gases such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide to displace oxygen and reduce the risk of combustion. This method lowers the oxygen concentration below the level required for combustion, effectively suppressing fires or explosions without causing damage to equipment or the environment.

Where there is a critical need to protect equipment or processes within your facility, in areas that are not occupied by people, Carbon Dioxide Fire Extinguishing Systems are the most cost effective choice. Some of the features that make our CO2 fire extinguishing systems appealing are that they are:

• Electrically non-conductive

• Fast acting

• Creates no residue

• Environmentally friendly

• Cost effective

What is flooding and channeling in context with distillation?

Flooding and channeling are very significant terms with both gas absorption and distillation of it involves the use of packed towers. Flooding means that the gas velocity is very high, therefore, does not allow the flow of the liquid from the top of the tower, and flooding occurs on the top of it (ergo, the gas phase is not completely mixed by the water phase). The best gas velocity, should be half of the flooding velocity. For channeling, it is the unequal wetting of the packings in the tower. If channeling occurs, poor mass transfer happens, and therefore, less efficiency of the tower happens.


What does flooding engine mean?

Flooding an engine simply means that there is TOO much gas in your cylinders, and you have to wait until they drain before you press the gas, or start the vehicle. The more you try to turn the vehicle over, the more gas will be injected. So let the vehicle sit and wait or press the accelerator to the floor to increase the air in the mixture and leave it there until the engine starts.

What is nn100 system?

NN100 is a fire suppression system. It consists of one or more tanks of IG-100 (Nitrogen) gas and a releasing system to automatically or manually trigger the release of the gas into the room. It works by flooding a room with IG-100 (Nitrogen) gas to the point where the percentage of oxygen in the room air is reduced below the level required to sustain a fire, but not so low as to endanger human occupants in the space.
