NFPA36

Help ensure greater fire safety and minimize risks at solvent extraction plants.

Mitigate the specialized hazards involved in the extraction of oils from agricultural commodities using hydrocarbon solvents with the updated requirements in NFPA 36, Standard for Solvent Extraction Plants.

Designers, builders, operators, inspectors, and enforcement personnel working in dusty or flammable vapor atmospheres can stay up-to-code and utilize the latest updates in this safety standard to help protect workers from hazards at solvent extraction plants, including animal and vegetable oils and fats using Class I flammable hydrocarbon liquids.

The 2025 edition of NFPA 36, Standard for Solvent Extraction Plants, features expanded Chapter 7 requirements to include ATEX Category 2 as an acceptable spark resistance standard for ventilation and updated diagrams to align with extraction process distance requirements.
