On discharge it expands into the protected space and reduces oxygen to a level that will not sustain combustion. The EPA&#8217;s report on CO2 risks notes that it leaves no residue, so no clean-up is needed, and that it can be used around energized electrical equipment.<\/p>\n<p>The trade-off is concentration. The same report gives 34% as the minimum total flooding design concentration, with some fuels needing more: 36% for propane and 72% for carbon disulfide. CO2 is not effective on active metals, metal hydrides or materials that contain their own oxygen supply, such as cellulose nitrate.<\/p>\n<p>A fixed system should not be confused with a <a href=\"\/en\/sa\/media-center\/co2-fire-extinguisher-guide\/\">portable CO2 extinguisher<\/a>.
