Préparé pour Transports Canada, l'Association canadienne des chefs de pompiers, l'Association de gaz propane Inc. Un document technique accompagne cette vidéocassette. Document conçu pour le personnel d'intervention d'urgence qui pourrait être appelé sur les lieux d'un incident mettant en cause un réservoir de gaz liquéfié sous pression très endommagé par un choc ou un incendie. L'objectif est de fournir des renseignements sur les dangers occasionnés par un BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour Explosion). Le BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour Explosion) est dû à l'expansion des vapeurs d'un liquide en ébullition. Ce document de formation explique les marches à suivre sur les lieux d'accidents lorsqu'on est en présence d'un gaz liquéfié sous pression (propane). 2, record 1, French, - BLEVE%20%3A%20R%C3%A9action%20et%20pr%C3%A9vention
