Quote HistoryQuoted: 30 million dollar ship with 100 million dollar cargo. That ship has serious structural issues, I doubt it will ever see land again. Quote HistoryQuoted: 30 million dollar ship with 100 million dollar cargo. That ship has serious structural issues, I doubt it will ever see land again. That second number keeps going up. But just how much is at stake if all the cars were to burn to a crisp and never be recovered? According to software company Skytek, the total market value of the Felicity Ace is somewhere around $24.5 million — however, the vehicles themselves are valued at closer to $500 million overall, as per Car and Driver.

It's already a total loss. Sink it & the fire will be out in a few minutes...

Quote HistoryQuoted: A lithium metal fire won't be out until the lithium is all combusted. The heat from the burning lithium is likely to break down the water and create more oxygen to enable complete combustion. Lithium-ion batteries do not have metallic lithium. Lithium-ion battery fires are mostly the electrolyte in the battery, and are not dependent on outside oxygen. The only way to stop the chemical reaction is to put enough water or other coolant on the battery to get the temperature down and stop the reaction. The reason I post this is because battery fires from consumer devices are relatively common and some are afraid to put water on them to put them out due to misconception, when in reality if possible they need to be quenched quickly. If allowed to burn they generate a lot of very toxic chemicals which contaminate the whole indoor environment around them. You do not want to be breathing in that smoke either by the way, get out quickly and let the fire dept ventilate the area. |

The combustion produces hydrocarbon gasses.
