Depending on the conditions the resulting fire may remain smouldering or develop into open flames. Service Isothermal calorimetry - Microcalorimetry Isothermal calorimetry, also known as microcalorimetry can be used to study almost any release or consumption of energy. The sensitivity is high and very small amounts of energy fluxes can be measured, because of this, the method … Expertise Battery Fire Safety Society is shifting from fossil-fuels to renewable energy sources and batteries are becoming increasingly more common. There are safety concerns with batteries and energy storage systems, however. To future-proof your technologies… Expertise Self-heating Perhaps the most common cause of fires in large bulk storage is self-heating leading to spontaneous ignition. Self-heating is partly due to microbial activity, chemical oxidation and physical processes and can lead to spontaneous … Expertise Fuel Storage Safety Our research platform for safe storage of fuels has a combined expertise in fire, risk and safety. This mainly covers solid biomass and waste, but also liquid and gaseous fuels. Expertise Microcalorimetry The microcalorimeter can be used to study heat released or consumed by any slow reaction under constant conditions. The method can after only hours or days detect degradation of a material, something that otherwise would have take…
