ON THE NEED TO DEVELOP FIRE-SAFE CONTAINERS FOR TRANSPORTING LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
Abstract and keywords
Abstract:
The rapid growth in the use and production of lithium-ion batteries (hereinafter - LIA) in many industries is accompanied by an increase in the number of fire hazardous situations. Traditional logistics containers are not designed to contain specific fire hazards characteristic of LIAs: thermal acceleration, release of combustible gases and intense heat generation. This poses a threat to transport infrastructure, other goods and people's lives, which necessitates specialized fire-safe solutions. The article presents an analysis and summary of data on incidents during the transportation of LIAs, existing requirements for packaging and studies on the features of fire hazard of LIAs. Deficiencies (gaps) were identified in the existing regulatory framework and, as a result, typical logistics containers that do not provide containment of thermal acceleration of LIA. In the course of the analysis, the basic principles for the design of fireproof containers were determined: passive fire protection in the form of the use of heat-resistant insulating materials), active suppression (built-in fire extinguishing systems) and the installation of explosion-proof elements for pressure relief. A hypothesis is proposed on the effectiveness of multilevel protection aimed at breaking the chain of development of a fire hazard situation LIA
