Controlling Fires at Waste & Recycling Facilities: Scope – Consequences - Solutions
Waste and recycling facilities have been hit with an increasing number of fire incidents due to hazards including lithium-ion batteries. These fires have an estimated cost of over $2.5 billion per year in the US and Canada that are unfairly borne by operators, local fire departments, the environment, and the public. During this session Ryan Fogelman will review the scope of the fire problem, the costs incurred by operators including the resulting unhealthy insurance options, and how the Fire Rover solution has evolved to solve these problem for our clients with early detection and fire elimination solutions.
