THe project I was on was for a steel plant for the auto industry. We installed several large tanks to store oxygen so it was available on demand to make more steel. Oxygen is the raw fuel for combustion, it just needs an ignition source.
What I do remember is that when we commissioned a system, we used to completely purge a system with nitrogen (inert gas). So much as a speck of sand would cause an explosion when oxygen was fed into the system. Something to do with the contact of the speck of sand with the piping.
my words.. watch how carefully the operator handles the hoses the next time a tanker refills welding gases at retail... he is not allowed to let it fall on asphalt... the oil in the asphalt??
