How to extinguish a lithium ion cell fire?

In fire extinguishing tests the single cell was heated up to a temperature of about 650°C and then the extinguishing agent was applied. Carbon dioxide, foam, dry powder, pure water, and water mist were used to extinguish the Li-ion cell fires. For the battery pack fire, water was used as extinguisher.

Are battery fire extinguishing agents effective?

Screening tests for battery fire extinguishing agents were also performed. The effectiveness of an agent was evaluated through experiments on the cooling effect of fire extinguishing agents. Among the various agents, water and foam were found to be the most effective. 1. Introduction

What is the best fire extinguishing agent for lithium batteries?

With reference to the fire extinguishing agents of lithium cells/batteries, currently they include mainly water, foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide and water mist. The results of tests have shown that the most effective are water and foam.

Why do lithium batteries need a fire suppression system?

However, manufacturing defects or non-compliance with safety norms can easily trigger thermal runaway in lithium batteries, leading to safety accidents such as fires and explosions. This highlights the urgent need for advanced lithium battery fire suppression technology.
