Rasbash, D.J., 1965. INERT GAS GENERATORS FOR FIGHTING FIRES. Fire Research Notes 606
Inert gas, particularly carbon dioxide in first-aid appliances, has been a common extinguishing agent for small liquid fires for many years. The current fire brigade interest in inert gas for filling whole compartments is associated with the recent development of facilities for generating large flow rates of gas using a mobile appliance which can be taken to a fire. This development opens up wide possibilities for the use of inert gas to control or extinguish difficult fire's and large fires, particularly in large buildings and in ships.
