What is BLEVE Explosion Safety Guidelines about?

A Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion (BLEVE) occurs when a vessel containing a liquid above its boiling point ruptures due to the pressure of vaporizing liquid and escaping gases. There are three types of BLEVEs: a two-step slow BLEVE where a crack forms and slowly spreads; a single-step rapid BLEVE where a vessel instantly fails; and a transient jet release where a vessel does not fully rupture. A BLEVE can result in fireballs, projectiles, and vapor cloud explosions that endanger emergency responder
