1.3 Identifying sources of oxygen

The main source of oxygen for a fire is in the air around us. In an enclosed building this is provided by ventilation system in use. This generally falls into one of the two categories –

ƒNatural airflow through doors; windows and other openings; or

ƒMechanical air-conditioning systems and air handling systems.

In many buildings there will be a combination of systems, which will be capable of introducing/extracting air to and from the building.

Additional sources of oxygen can sometimes be found in materials used or stored as –

ƒSome chemicals (oxidizing materials), which can provide a fire with additional oxygen and so assist it to burn. These chemicals should be identified on their container by the manufacturer or supplier who can advise as to their safe use and storage.

ƒOxygen supplies from cylinder storage and piped systems, e.g. oxygen used in welding processes or for health care purposes.
