- W2890193380 abstract "Abstract The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is a US trade association that includes some international members. The association creates and maintains private, copyrighted standards and codes for usage and adoption by local governments. The association publications include model building and codes for equipment utilized by firefighters engaging in hazardous material (hazmat) response, rescue response, and some firefighting. The NFPA was formed in 1896 by a group of insurance firms for the purpose of standardizing fire sprinkler systems. The NFPA's influence grew from sprinklers and fire extinguishers to include standards for building electrical systems in almost all aspects of design and construction. The original membership was limited to insurance underwriting firms; there was no representation from the industries the NFPA sought to control. In 1904, the rules were changed to allow other industries and individuals to participate in the development of the standards to be promulgated. The first fire department to be represented, in 1905, in the NFPA was the New York City Fire Department. Today, the NFPA includes representatives from some fire departments, many fire insurance companies, many manufacturing associations, some trade unions, many trade associations, and engineering associations. Following the Introduction, this chapter reviews NFPA 58 and the History of Odorization. It continues with a discussion of Unknown Dangers to the Consumers of Gas Products. A review follows of Propane: A Colorless, Odorless, and Tasteless Gas. It continues with A Brief Look at the Chemistry of the Life of Mercaptan Odorants followed by Odorant Loss From Absorption/Adsorption. Then a discussion of Combustible Gas Indicators closes the technology presentation. Finally, a Case Study of a Propane Gas Explosion is presented to illustrate what can happen in hazardous situations." @default.
