INTRODUCTION
In industrialized countries, the cost of fire damage and fireprotection represents a significant percentage of the GDP.
– In the USA, the cost of fire is approximately 2% of the GDP.
– That is 100-200 billion annually. (Ahrens 2001)
During the last years, the United States and the world haveawakened to the threat of terrorist acts involving powerfulexplosive materials and the fires they cause.
Large and catastrophic fires resulting from terrorist attackspose an unprecedented challenge.
Presently, there is no existing technology to adequatelycombat catastrophic tall building fires

INTRODUCTION cont.
Unfortunately, we now understand the devastating effect
just one catastrophic fire can have on the global economy.
We can also see how thousands of lives can be lost
because of one inadequate protection regime. Nearly 50% of all fires are arson related.
For such an extreme problem calls for an immediate and
radical new approach.
It is time for you to open up your mind!

FirePASS Technology Overview
FirePASS offers 7 new patents and a radical and newapproach to
Fire Prevention
Fire Suppression
Dual Mode Prevention & SuppressionMobile Fire Fighting Suppression Systems
Fire Escape
All FirePASS solutions incorporate hypoxic (oxygenreduced) air.
Hypoxic air can prevent ignition and suppress fires The FirePASS Concept is based on 7 years of extensive
experience and research
FirePASS’ mother company, Hypoxico Inc. specializes inthe health and medical applications of hypoxic air.

1. FirePASS Prevention
Why extinguish fires when you
can actively prevent them?

FirePASS Prevention
FirePASS-P is the first system in the world thatcan totally prevent ignition of Class A, B, and Cfires.
FirePASS-P system constantly generates, and
ventilates Hypoxic air containing 15-16%O2. At this oxygen concentration, nearly all ignition
scenarios are prevented.
In terms of O2 available for respiration, it is
equivalent to being in a passenger plane or beingin a mountain resort without this discomfortassociated with low pressure.

FirePASS Prevention
FirePASS-P is a ventilation system that maintainsa positive pressure within the protected space
Due to this positive pressure, the Prevention
system, can be coupled with a filtration system tomake the building immune from – Aerosolized Biological Warfare Agents
– Aerosolized Chemical Agents
– Radioactive Contaminants For this reason, the protected space can double
as an emergency shelter.

FirePASSSuppression
FirePASS agent is premixed hypoxic air containing10-12% O2 – The FirePASS agent, hypoxic air, has inerting properties
analogous to Nitrogen (IG-100).
– Premixing ensures safety of occupants
– Combats re-ignition with continuous flow of agent for post
suppression inerting – On-site agent re-generation
– Suppression system is more flexible. Its continuous flowcauses room integrity to become less of a factor
– Can be a supplement to other systems

FirePASS DUAL MODE
FirePASS can be utilized in “Dual Mode” for ultimateprotection.
A constant preventative atmosphere can be maintainedwith an emergency supply of stored pressurized hypoxic
air. In the event of an attack that breaches the integrity of the
protected space, the suppression system is activated tomaintain a positive pressure of hypoxic air within theprotected space.
The suppression system must only keep fresh outside air from entering the building to prevent a catastrophic fire.

What work is needed?
FirePASS has laid the foundation
for the building of the future. Still,
there is work to be done!

FirePASS Development
FirePASS Prevention and Suppression
Systems have undergone successful small-
scale testing and computer simulations but
lacks large-scale testing
FirePASS Suppression Agent is certified by
the US Environmental Protection Agency
but is at the beginning of many other regulatory and certification processes.

FirePASS Cost
The cost of both the suppression and prevention systemsare dependent on a vast array of variables
In most cases FirePASS-Prevention system can beat thecost of a typical halocarbon system.
For small to moderate spaces the suppression system canbe competitive to standard inert gas and halocarbonsystems.
Large scale FirePASS-Suppression systems have nocompetition.
Tall-building sized suppression systems can be asinexpensive as a sprinkler system
