Acetylene gas cylinders that have been exposed to heat are a danger both for rescue service personnel attending the scene and for other people in the vicinity. It is thus important to deal rapidly with gas cylinders that have been exposed to fire. Shooting acetylene gas cylinders describes several methods of dealing with acetylene gas cylinders that have been exposed to fire. The book is primarly intended to be used at the colleges of the Swedish Rescue Services Agency, but it can also be read by rescue service personnel who need to increase their knowledge of fire-affected acetylene gas cylinders and dealing with them by shooting.
