The Mysteries of Ammonia!

[hendry]

have not done that.

but, my last ammonia leaking job along with local fire brigade was the most memorable one.

the leak was during holidays in early feb 2007.
as early as 0700hrs i have received call from GM of the company.
by the time my technican arrive on site, keep-off lines have been put up. few fire engines has arrived on site.

white smokes are coming from the leaking poins. it is a hi-lo stage liquid pumped system.

accessibility was poor then plus others are not familiar with the place.

however, the main valves and branch valves were isolated along with others equipment. [practically the whole area is shutdown]

you know what ...
when i went in with only full facial mask with K2 filter, i came out with my lower body feel burning hot.

good experience then ... but scary ... the smokes looks as if you are in heaven ...
