Migration of Natural Gas Released From Damaged Distribution Pipelines Through Soil

Abstract: The purpose of this research is to study how the natural gas transported by damaged distribution pipelines can migrate through the soil. If the gas emissions are not detected on time and the air vents are placed on inappropriate sites or are not maintained properly, gas can migrate directly throughout preferential pathways: bed sand pipes, sewer pipes, cable channels, channels for heating, then can enter the confined space and form explosive mixtures. As a proof of these phenomena, a series of events that occu… Show more

“…Because of its high degree of toxicity, the substance is a major health problem for workers. The toxic gas called phosphine is a gas that cannot be detected by the human senses, being odourless and tasteless [10,11]. The routes of human contamination are respiratory, digestive or, less frequently, cutaneous.…”

“…Ethylene oxide is used as a sterilizing gas for various foods, pesticides and consumables in medical processes or as an intermediate for the manufacture of other chemicals [11]. Moreover, in small amounts, ethylene oxide is used as a pesticide and as a sterilant in food additives to eliminate bacterial Salmonella contamination of food.…”
