What are the three types of intermodal tanks?
Types of Intermodal Containers
- Dry Freight. The dry freight container is the most common type of shipping container.
- Flat Rack. Flat rack containers are different from many other shipping containers in that they do not have walls and are not enclosed.
- Insulated.
- Refrigerated.
- Open Top.
- Custom.
What does SPEC 51 mean?
Pressure intermodal tank containers are termed DOT Spec. 51 containers in the U.S. and were formerly termed IMO Type 5 containers in international transportation. 51 containers ranges between 100 psi and 500 psi, with normal internal quantities ranging from 4,500 gallons to 5,500 gallons.
What type of tank is an IMO Type 5 tank container?
Gas Tanks
What type of dispersion pattern forms an irregularly shaped pattern of an airborne hazardous material where wind and or topography influence the downrange course from the point of release?
engulfment. What type of dispersion pattern forms an irregularly shaped pattern of an airborne hazardous material where wind and/or topography influence the downrange course from the point of release? Computer software programs such as CAMEO and AHOLA can be used to: model dispersion patterns.
What types of occupancies are most likely to have hazardous materials?
Locations such as ports, docks, railroad sidings, airplane hangars and truck terminals: are likely locations for hazmat incidents.
Which mechanism of harm is the greatest threat at hazmat incidents?
Energy release at hazmat incidents presents the greatest threat. Heat (thermal) hazards are common at hazmat incidents. Heat and lack of heat can both cause harm.
Which statement about oxidizers is most accurate?
Which statement about oxidizers is MOST accurate? They vigorously support combustion and may be explosive.
Do oxidizers release oxygen?
The usual source of oxygen for burning is air. However, oxidizing materials can supply combustible substances with oxygen and support a fire even when air is not present.
How would you protect yourself when dealing with oxidizers?
Avoid or eliminate ignition sources (sparks, smoking, flames, hot surfaces) when working with oxidizing materials. Store, handle and use oxidizing materials in well-ventilated areas away from combustible and other incompatible materials. Handle containers safely to avoid damaging them.
Which oxidizing agents are considered toxic to the environment?

- Bromine.
- Chromic acid.
- Dibenzoyl peroxide.
- Hydrogen peroxide.
- Perchloric acid.
- Sodium perchlorate.
