SPECIFIC FEATURES OF THE PROCESSES OF BURNING OF DIESEL BIO FUEL, ITS MIXTURES WITH OIL-BASED DIESEL FUEL, AND PROCESSES OF INTERACTION OF FIRE-EXTINGUISHING AGENTS WITH FLAME WHEN PUTTING THEM OUT

Analytical and experimental data on fire hazard of diesel bio fuel, its mixtures with oil-based diesel fuel, and parameters of processes of their burning and interaction with conventional fire-extinguishing agents are generalized. Applicability of the types of fire-extinguishing agents having been used for putting-out of diesel bio fuel was revealed and a number of parameters to describe their efficiency when extinguishing diesel bio fuel were determined. It was revealed that in case of diesel bio fuel content in its mixtures with oil-based diesel fuel up to 30 % fire-extinguishing efficiency of foam generated from foam solutions nearly does not differ from that when extinguishing diesel fuel containing no additives.
