APPLICATIONS - FireAde 2000
Six Products in One

1. Fire Fighting Medium
FireAde 2000 may be used on the following fire categories:

A) Class “A” Fires
Wood / Paper / Cotton / Hay / Coal / Tires
FireAde 2000 is used on Class “A” fires in mixture ratios from 0.25% to 1%.

FireAde 2000 can be introduced into the water stream through any type of liquid concentrate proportioning device such as an in-line eductor, on-board proportioner, and around-the-pump proportioner or balance pressure concentrate metering system.

FireAde 2000 is also very effective if pre-mixed in a pumping apparatus, booster tank, portable ground tank or other water supply source. Any means by which you can achieve a 0.25% mixture ratio or higher in the water stream will provide tremendous extinguishing capabilities, faster cooling, and water savings! FireAde 2000 is an excellent medium for cutting a fire path through burning fuel in order to rescue casualties or property. Having cut the path, the fuel will not re­ignite even though the fire is still burning either side!

B) Class “B” Fires
Non-Polar Solvents @ 3% Dilution, Gasoline, Diesel. Jet A, JP4, JP5, JP8, Crude Oils, Kerosene, Tires, Polar Solvents @ 6% Dilution, Methanol, Isopropyl Alcohol, Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK)

Note: FireAde 2000 extinguishes ALL sides of the fire tetrahedron even when utilized as Foam, resulting in even faster extinguishments than traditional Foams. The Foam Blanket produced from FireAde 2000 has been designed to quickly drain after extinguishment allowing faster clean up and enabling quicker visibility and access to objects that would be covered with traditional Foams.

C) USA Class “C” Fires - i.e. Electrical
DO NOT APPLY TO ELECTRICAL FIRES

D) European Class “E” Fires - i.e. Electrical
DO NOT APPLY TO ELECTRICAL FIRES

E) European Class “C” Fires
FireAde 2000 is highly effective in this category. 

F) Class “D” Fires
Magnesium
Titanium
*Note: Apply Concentrate to Class “D” Fires

G) European Class “F” Fires (class K in the USA)
Fat or grease fires.

2 - FireAde 2000 achieves a marked and rapid reduction of heat by creating a temperature gradient caused by latent heat of evaporation and by simple volume cooling. Because FireAde 2000 makes water up to 6 times wetter, the cooling effect is very impressive, enabling previously hot debris to be cleared away by hand very soon after extinguishments. It doesn’t take long before burning fuel in this container heats up both the fuel and the container. Only seconds after the fuel has been extinguished using FireAde 2000, the container and the fuel is cool enough for this volunteer to test the temperature himself.

3 - Spill Control - Hazardous Polar Solvent

Because of its ability to emulsify fuel and solvents FireAde 2000 eliminates or reduces risks associated with flammable hydrocarbon and Polar solvent spills. Downtime is minimized or eliminated as spills and cleanup operations are dealt with quickly and safely with no risk of ignition. Practical applications are found in: Highway Spills, Auto Racing Track Spills, Airport Apron Spills, Refinery, Chemical and Industrial Spills, Neutralization of spills in storm drains.

4 - Toxic Smoke Scrubber

The encapsulation qualities of FireAde 2000 works just as well on smoke as on liquids. The scrubbing effect of FireAde 2000 can be observed a moment after the product is applied. Dense and toxic black smoke rapidly changes to cleaner white smoke with proportionately higher water vapor content than dangerous toxins. FireAde 2000 interrupts free radical chain reaction thus preventing them from coalescing, forming soot and smoke. Less smoke and fewer toxins mean improved safety and improved visibility into working areas.

5- Vapor Control

As many vapors represent an explosion hazard and hinder safe working, the encapsulation quality of FireAde 2000 is particularly useful when used to “lock-up” vapors and render them safe. Practical applications are found in: Tank Cleaning and Degreasing, Petrochemical Pipeline Cleaning, Valve Box Degassing. (Ask for details about VaporAde 2000, an enhanced product version with these features plus other benefits.)

6 - Bioremedition

Biodegradation of unwanted hydrocarbons molecules is speeded up in brownfield sites and land reclamation projects. FireAde 2000 encapsulated the hydrocarbon molecules and suspends them in aqueous solution making them readily available to naturally occurring or synthetic micro-organisms. FireAde 2000 may be used as a vehicle to carry any specific micro-organism cocktail to meet a bioremediation program.
