Description:
The TDG Directorate is undertaking a project to analyse past incidents where the vent and burn technique was executed and subsequently failed, to determine if there are any possible solutions that can be considered, based upon the existing research on this topic that was carried out over 20 years ago. From 2004 to 2006, TC-TDG and its partners conducted tests using commercially available shaped explosive charges on highway tanks to further develop the last resort technique known as vent and burn. The outcomes from this previous research project can be found here: https://tc.canada.ca/en/dangerous-goods/last-resort-vent-burn. This technique is used to prevent a catastrophic tank failure or an uncontrolled release of liquified petroleum gas (LPG), or other liquefied flammable gases in the environment during an incident, when no other remedial measure is viable. Current practice for this technique involves placing shaped explosive charges on the top and the bottom of a large means of containment (MOC) (e.g. highway tank, tank car). The detonation of the shaped charges at the top of the tank and simultaneous ignition of the escaping pressurised vapour contained within the vapour phase, will decrease the likelihood of catastrophic failure by reducing the high internal tank pressure. After a pre-determined, usually short, time delay, this step is followed by detonation of the shaped charges on the bottom of the tank, which will allow the liquified portion of LPG to drain out of the...
