A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. announced the filing of an additional technology patent as it continues the development of the Fuel Tank Inertia Capsule System (FTICS), and is aiming for installations to commence in 2020 to help save lives in the event of fires from vehicle collisions. The FTICS is a patented 3-part system that deploys in the event of a vehicle collision. On collision, the FTICS releases a proprietary chemical mixture into the gas tank, neutralizing the contents rendering them inert and non-flammable. The gas tank is also isolated to ensure none of the contents leak. The final component of the FTICS system forces all the oxygen out of the gas tank to further limit the possibility of fire. The FTICS requires no additional sensors as it is triggered by the same sensors that trigger the deployment of the vehicle's airbag.
