🔍 Key Concepts

• Spontaneous combustion and how it occurs • Common engine room fire hazards • Materials that can self-heat when piled or confined

💭 Think About

• Which of these locations commonly contains absorbent materials (like rags, sawdust, waste) that may be soaked with oil or solvents? • Where is heat retention and poor ventilation most likely, allowing temperature to rise slowly over time? • Which option is more associated with self-heating oily waste, rather than ignition from sparks, pressure, or open flame?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice typically holds oil-soaked or solvent-soaked absorbent materials • Consider which space is usually enclosed with limited airflow, trapping heat • Eliminate options that are more likely to cause fires by electrical faults, leaks, or external ignition sources, not by spontaneous combustion
