Abstract:
A process of stripping an inflammable or hazardous material of its inflammability or hazardous abilities when one or more trigger events occur including a vehicular crash or collision, comprising the steps of(a) providing a container or tank for said inflammable or hazardous material, said container or tank being expansible for providing sufficient extra capacity to accommodate volume changes when a disabler is emptied into it; (b) providing a container or tank for said disabler predetermined to be able to interact chemically and interfere with and alter said inflammable or hazardous material such that the latter is substantially and appreciably stripped of its inflammability or hazardous abilities; (c) providing a means of speedily transporting said disabler from its container or tank into said container or tank of said inflammable or hazardous material including use of pumps and pressurized storage; (d) providing a means of rapidly interacting said disabler with said inflammable or hazardous material; (e) providing at least manual or automated means of identifying the occurrence of said trigger events; and whereby said inflammable or hazardous material, whether within or without its tank, is disabled and substantially and appreciably stripped of its inflammability or hazardous abilities, which abilities are otherwise manifestable on the occurrence of said trigger events.
