Question 26Safety & Environmental - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is B) The tank is especially dangerous to enter. When a tank has been sealed and unventilated for a long period of time, the oxygen levels inside the tank can become dangerously low, and the tank may contain a build-up of toxic or flammable gases. This makes the tank a very hazardous environment that should not be entered without proper safety precautions and testing. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) Entering the tank without proper ventilation and testing would be extremely unsafe. C) Carbon monoxide may be present, but the main hazard is the lack of oxygen. D) The oxidation of water vapor is not the primary concern in this scenario.
