Should fire hydrant be installed in grain depot?

Should fire hydrant be installed in grain depot?

Answer:

Shall not use open flame and the fluorescent lamp, iodine tungsten lamp in the reservoir area, prohibited all fire. The power supply in the warehouse must be cut off after work or at the end of the job.
To prevent food spontaneous combustion, monitoring the temperature of the granary at any time. Humidity, once found heating up, immediately use ventilation, heat dissipation or change positions and other measures.
(1) the grain storage should be located near the edge of the town, and the windward side or the side wind which is in the dominant wind direction in that area. Not close to flammable, explosive warehouses and factories. The fence of the grain depot is separated from other areas, and there are more than one outlet on the fence.(2) grain storage areas should be divided into grain storage areas, drying areas, processing zones, equipment areas, chemical storage areas and office living areas according to the nature of the use, so as to create a "fire burning battalion" situation during fire prevention. Fire spaces and fire lanes must be provided between the districts.(3) can not be everywhere flammable and combustible materials in the reservoir area, warehouse outside in the yard without weeds. Rubbish.(4) no wires shall be erected over the warehouse, and no transformers shall be installed in the reservoir area. Good lightning protection facilities should be installed in the reservoir area.(5) the grain warehouse should be built separately, sacks, wood, linoleum etc. should be classified. Sub heap storage. Between the warehouse and the warehouse should be kept 10~14 meters from the distance between the soil bin to maintain a distance of 4 meters, between the booth and the storage between 6 meters spacing, warehouse, stacking. Keep the distance of 6 meters between the fence and the fence.(6) some fire prevention intervals should be maintained between open and semi open storage lots and buildings.
1., because the grain contains a large amount of sugar, fat and cellulose, it is easy to burn.2., the continuous respiration of the grain itself and the food microorganism leads to the accumulation of heat, the increase of temperature, and the occurrence of spontaneous combustion.3. when storing grain, the fire danger of the granary is increased because of the large use of the combustible materials such as cushion wood, mat, fluorescent and sack.4., unreasonable grain warehouse layout led to fire.5., when the food drying, because of the use of open fire operations, if the temperature control is improper, may cause a fire.6. The storage of grain stored in chemical way, because of the use of a large number of flammable and explosive dangerous chemicals, experiments and insect killing, increased the risk of fire in the granary.7. use mechanization. Inadvertent use of electrical equipment may cause fire when semi mechanized equipment is used to load and unload grain.8. the fire is brought into the barn to cause fire.9. people set fire to the fire.
Grain warehouses are used to store food crops and oil-bearing crops, and are generally divided into two kinds: indoor warehouses and open-air warehouses. Food or oil crops during storage can cause fire or other losses, which can lead to virtually no increase or decrease in production. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the safety and fire prevention work of grain warehouses.
