Gas Detection whether it is toxic,flammable gas is of utmost importance.
Many deaths occur in the world due to gases. Gases cannot be underestimated as their impact is lethal and devstating. Gases are sometimes colourless, odourless and still are extremely lethal.
Toxic gases are measured in ppm levels and Flammable gases are measured in Vol.% levels. Roughly 1 Vol% = 10000 ppm. Some gases exhibit property of being toxic & flammable and by the time these gases reach dangerous flammable levels they are already extremely toxic.
There is also a challenge when you enter confined spaces as these areas have low oxygen levels, any level belo 6% is extremely fatal for human beings
Oxygen enrichment is also a problem as excess Oxygen could lead to clothes catching fire usually this happens during gas welding applications.
India encountered several cases of toxic posioning, flammable gas explosions and accidents due to oxygen defecient conditions.
The largest toxic tragedy which happened in India was Bhopal gas tragedy which was due to leakage of toxic gas Methyl Iso cynate in which several people lost their lives and several were maimed for rest of their lives.
The devastation due to flammable gases have been many whether it was HPCL Refinery in Vizag or IOCL Refinery in Digboi the industrial plants were destroyed to quite an extent. Gases like LPG, Hydrogen, Methane can cause fire & explosion of a very severe nature
There have been mny accidents happening in muncipalities due to H2S posioning and low oxygen presence in confined spaces where muncipal workers go to clean the undergound drains.
