In the oil and gas industry, the storage and handling of hazardous acids such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and hydrofluoric acid require strict adherence to International Fire Code (IFC) standards to prevent accidents and ensure safety. Nitric acid is highly reactive and can cause fires when in contact with organic materials, while sulfuric acid poses risks of ignition through its dehydrating properties. Hydrochloric acid reacts with metals to produce flammable hydrogen gas, and hydrofluoric acid, although non-flammable, is highly toxic and can cause severe burns. Proper containment, ventilation, and segregation from incompatible materials are essential to mitigate these hazards, adhering to guidelines specified in the IFC for safe storage practices.
