About this Episode
This episode clears up a few mix-ups from last time about the blankets, and then we dive into the topic of asbestos - why it’s not officially labeled as hazmat, but still kind of treated like it is. Give it a listen!
Thank you to our sponsor for this episode:
ObexionFR
ObexionFR is a mobile solution for first responders dealing with lithium battery fires, created by former FDNY Hazmat experts. It uses advanced science to neutralize fires by addressing heat, oxygen, and fuel, quickly containing and extinguishing them while keeping toxic gas levels safe. The process cools the battery, isolates oxygen, and prevents further ignition, providing a reliable tool for challenging battery fire incidents. Check it out.
