In response to Re: Methane/Sewer gas explosion
: I am working on a case that involves a dry mud pit in : a service station's bay. The pit was apparently suppose : to be filled with water, however, was not. There was an : elbow joint pipe in the pit that was not positioned : correctly and leaking methane/sewer gas into the bay. : When the attendent opened the bay doors the wind forced : the fumes toward a nearby hot water heater whose pilot light : ignited the fumes and caused an explosion. I am curious if : there is any information readily available to the public : concerning the dangers of methane gas and the need to keep : these types of mud pits filled with water? Thanks for : your help. Hello, I'm also interested in this item. Can you give me the information that you have about methane gas and explosion danger? Thnak you very much!!!!!!!!!!!
