3-5 Power Point

You are working an 8,000-gallon gasoline tanker fire carrying an unknown amount of product overturned on a major artery connecting two major cities. There are no shipping papers to confirm product identification as the cab was fully involved. From a distance it appears that only two numbers are still visible on the placard – 63. You have units lay a large diameter hose line and set up an unmanned monitor to begin blanketing the fire. Initial you maintained 150-foot isolation from the spill. You have only ten five-gallon containers of AFFF foam on hand and make a request for more foam. You are attempting to protect the flammable liquids that have not yet ignited and pooling on the roadway. Because of the ease of AFFF-enhanced water mixtures, you use a ground monitor set on fog to both generate and deliver the foam. The monitor was making an adequate blanket using the application rate of 0.16 gpm/sq. ft; however, the blanket did not appear to be effective.
From the scenario Create a three to five PowerPoint slide presentation explaining what type of fuel involved in the overturned tanker. What is the best agent for fighting this fire? Why, or why not? You may use various sources, including your textbook or other scholarly material; however, the point of this discussion question is for you to actively and skilfully conceptualize, apply, analyze, and evaluate the foam and why was it breaking up. What has been your observation, experience, reflection, or reasoning for the foam not holding? Since you will not be presenting this PowerPoint to your fellow students or instructor in person, you may need to add written explanation for the contents of your slides. If this becomes necessary, you may use the PowerPoint slide notes function to provide brief explanations.
You may emphasize key points taken from this unit to fully discuss your response. Visual emphasis such as bold, italicized, or underlined text, should be used sparingly, in order to maximize the prominence of key points. Each slide should address a single concept, and slides should follow a logical progression, each building on the other.
You will need to insert the PowerPoint into the discussion question. Please write your name and the title of your presentation and then attach the document into Blackboard. You will need to reflect on another student’s presentation to clarify, raise the efficiency of, and recognize any differences or biases in one’s own thinking based on your own knowledge or experience from that of what you viewed in the presentation.
