Re: ~Air Tank Explodes Killing Worker~
lol'd just so you all know, so we don't see "guy sets himself on fire, was DocumentingReality fan", oxygen is very flammable. I work in construction and I see a LOT of guys take an oxygen tank they use for torch cutting at the end of the day and blow all the dust off their cloths. By doing that, you're embedding small oxygen particles within the fabric of your cloths. A simple spark would light you up like a christmas tree. I've seen it happen in very minor circumstances, don't be that guy though. |

Re: ~Air Tank Explodes Killing Worker~
no shit??? and how exactly would this be performed??? i can just see the monkey fuck circus it takes to turn a 2000psi oxy tank into a "clothes blower" when simple compressed air would do the same or better in seconds. OSHA not apporved |

Re: ~Air Tank Explodes Killing Worker~
performed exactly how you laid it out lol they take the oxygen hose and spray their pants and shirt down. It's pure oxygen. Technically, oxygen isn't a flammable gas but instead a reactive gas. With oxygen embedded in the fabric, a strand of cotton that burns from, lets say a cigarette, could potentially ignite the rest of the wool with enough pure oxygen to oxidize. Fire is a chemical reaction with oxygen called oxidation. |
