Each hydrocarbon gas has a Flammable Zone area 🔥 What does it mean ❓ Assuming a tank has a mixture of HC/O2, the flammability won't occur ❌ unless it's within the Flammable Zone Area. The Methane CH4 has a FZA between 5️⃣ -1️⃣4️⃣ %. if the percentage of the CH4 is less than 5% or more than 15%, the explosion 🔥 won't happen assuming O2 between 13-20.9 %. The FZA is limited by 👉 LEL (Low Explosive Limit) and 👉 UEL (Upper Explosive Limit). |  Source : LNG ship Cargo operating manual |
