Methanol fires can be difficult to see, and methanol mixes with water. These properties affect how responders assess hazards and choose firefighting methods. Learners will practise assessing a methanol fire, selecting suitable response measures, and working safely within an emergency plan. The training also covers the limits of firefighting and when to withdraw and request additional support.
