    "Eco-friendly oil", at first glance, sounds like a new and environmentally friendly combustion material?

    Environmental oil is the common name of methanol fuel, containing more than 95% methanol, while mixed with a certain proportion of gasoline, component oil and other liquid fuels
    .
    It is a new type of liquid fuel whose quality standards cannot meet the national industry fuel standards, with a flash point of ≤ 60 °C, which is a flammable and dangerous chemical
    .

    Environmental protection oil is generally used in industrial production, but in recent years, some criminals under the banner of "safety and environmental protection" promotion, and because of the low cost of environmental protection oil, large firepower, this oil is favored by the catering industry, and into communities, residential areas, restaurants, and even hotels, hospitals and other walks of life
    .
    However, many people are not aware
    of the risks involved.

    According to China's "Building Design Fire Protection Code", environmental protection oil cannot be attached to civil buildings for operation, storage and use
    .
    "Environmental protection oil" has a low flash point, flammable and explosive; light color, leakage is not easy to detect; The steam ratio is large and dangerous
    .
    This means that residents cannot use methanol liquid fuel in their homes, and restaurants cannot use it
    .

    If a fire is accidentally triggered, it is not possible to simply use water to extinguish the "environmental oil", which will cause the fuel oil to spread with the water flow, forming a flowing fire, resulting in the expansion of the fire area, but may aggravate the fire
    .

    Nanning Fire Fighting reminds everyone: we must improve our awareness of safety precautions and resolutely refuse to use "environmentally friendly oil"! At the same time, you cannot do illegal production, operation, transportation, storage of "environmental protection oil" and other illegal acts, and violations will bear legal consequences!
