The cigarette butt cannot be thrown!Several groups of experiments tell you: Little cigarette heads can cause a fire fire

After smoking a cigarette, the cigarette butt was not extinguished, and someone might throw it off. However, you may not know that this inadvertent action is likely to cause fire and cause tragedy. But how does the cigarette head cause the fire? On the morning of July 7, the Hangzhou Fire Rescue Detachment launched a simulated cigarette butt in Baojia Community in Tonglu County to cause fire experiments. It was dangerous to test how the cigarette butts that were not extinguished were tested through experiments.

Before the experiment, fire rescue workers prepared waste bins, waste paper, straw, carton, cigarettes, lighters and other items. And wear fire fighting combat uniforms and prepare fire extinguishers.

The first group of experiments simulated the bedroom of a residential building. The residents smoked in bed and discarded the unexpected cigarette butt. At the beginning of the experiment, the cigarette butt thrown by the experiment just fell in the middle of the quilt. At the beginning, the quilt did not change. After about 30 seconds, the quilt began to start with black smoke. After about 20 minutes, the quilt appeared on the fire and burned, and then the fire became bigger and bigger, and soon spread to the entire room.

The second group of experiments was simulated to throw cigarette butts in the trash bin full of debris. Individual smokers may have the habit of throwing out the unexplained cigarette butts to throw them into the trash can. If it happens to be stacked in the trash can paper, plastic and other flammable materials, it is very dangerous. The experiments threw a cigarette butt to a trash can piled up paper, plastic bags and other flammable materials. Through on -site experiments, a thick smoke was raised in the trash can. The cigarette head ignited the flammable materials in the trash can, and soon the flames came out of the trash.

The third group of experiments simulated a pile of dried grass with an unexpected cigarette butt. The experiments throwing the unexplained cigarette butts into the dried grass piles, and found through experiments that dry straws were also easily ignited by the cigarette butt. Fire rescue workers said that this situation is more common in rural areas, and there are a large number of stackers or large -scale grasslands next to it, which can easily cause fire accidents.

Although the cigarette butt is small, it can not be underestimated by the harm. The temperature on the surface of the cigarette head can reach 200 to 300 degrees Celsius, and the center temperature reaches 700 to 800 degrees Celsius.

In recent years, the fire caused by cigarette butts is not uncommon. According to statistics, since this year, the Hangzhou Fire Rescue Detachment has received a total of 200 alarms that caused a fire caused by a fire, including 191 fires caused by cigarette butts, 7 bed smoking caused 7 fires, and illegal smoking caused one of the fire. Others. One of the reasons.

The fire is caused by a cigarette butt, but the person who is responsible for throwing a cigarette head. Especially in the summer, the fire department reminds the majority of smokers to effectively enhance the awareness of fire prevention, not smoking in public places and smoking places, and smoking without bed. Avoid flammables when smoking, such as at home, it is best to smoke on the ventilated balcony. Regardless of indoor or outdoor, you must ensure that the cigarette butt must be eliminated. Do not throw it around to avoid causing fires.
