in the small community of Ramin, located in the picturesque Vorpommern-Greifswald and near the German-Polish border, a devastating fire has put a house in rubble and ash.

causes of fire and phases

The drama about fire in Ramin also opens up a look at the general causes of fire. Fires often begin in the smoldering phase, in which materials burn down without an open flame and release dangerous gases. This creeping development can be divided into four phases: the inflammatory phase, the growth phase, the full fire phase and finally the cooling phase, in which the fire expires either by extinguishing measures or lack of fuel. According to Wagner Group, an inadequate information about these phases can lead to a careless handling of fire. Good fire protection often begins there, although the creeping fire development should not be underestimated.

Especially in the warm months when thunderstorms move through the region, the risk of fire can increase. The fire in Ramin said occurred exactly during a storm front, the possible connection of which cannot yet be finally assessed. Sensitization and prevention are the a and end of the above
