Safespill white paper on hangar drainage options

In this recent white paper, Safespill addresses the variety of options available for drainage from hangars. It’s important to note that most days, ILDFA systems discharge low volumes of water from cleaning cycles or aircraft washdown. In a worst-case scenario, the ILDFA and drainage system is designed for a mix of water and hydrocarbons that rarely exceeds 1,200 GPM (4,500 LPM). There are many options for handling discharged fuel/water mixtures, and in this white paper, we dive deep into these options. The right containment setup depends on hangar operations, environmental requirements, and existing infrastructure. #Safespill #ILDFA #Drainage #Containment #HangarMaintenance #EnvironmentalCompliance #FieldDrivenDesign #FPengineering

Environmental safety doesn’t stop at removing foam. ILDFA eliminates PFAS-laden AFFF from hangar fire protection. But runoff still needs to be safely captured, contained, and treated. This new white paper outlines seven proven containment and oil-water separator strategies—ranging from underground tanks to closed-loop recycling systems—designed to help engineers meet UFC, NFPA, and FM standards while minimizing cost and complexity. If you're planning a hangar project with ILDFA or replacing a foam system, these configurations offer practical, code-compliant options for runoff management. #Safespill #EnvironmentalCompliance #PFASFree #HangarDesign #EngineeringLeadership #OWS #FuelContainment #LEED #NFPA409 #UFC4_211_01 #FMApproved #Sustainability
