A Mobile Industrial Firefighting Platform for Extreme Hydrocarbon Fires
Powered by the JETEX SGT Two‑Phase Stream

A Mobile Industrial Firefighting Platform
  • Designed for:
    • Tank farms
    • Refineries & petrochemical plants
    • Fuel terminals
    • Large hydrocarbon fire scenarios
  • Built around:
    • JETEX two-phase stream
    • Water + foam + compressed air
    • External water supply architecture
    • Mobile industrial platform concept

Large‑scale fire test experience

JETEX is not a purely theoretical concept.
The firefighting principle has already been demonstrated in large‑scale live-fire scenarios involving hydrocarbon fuels.
Examples of previous fire testing:

20-ton fuel fire suppressed in 170 s

4-ton fuel fire suppressed in 40 s

Current next step: independent European validation and vehicle‑based industrial integration.

What is the JETEX Two‑Phase Platform?

The JETEX Two-Phase Platform is a new mobile industrial firefighting concept designed for the rapid suppression of extreme hydrocarbon fires.

Unlike a conventional water-carrying fire truck, it is built around the JETEX two‑phase extinguishing stream and intended to operate from external industrial water supply systems commonly available at refineries, terminals, tank farms and other high-risk industrial facilities.

The purpose of the platform is straightforward: to bring the JETEX firefighting principle into a professional vehicle-based industrial format capable of fast deployment, long-range stream delivery and powerful fire attack in severe industrial scenarios.

Why this platform is different

  • Conventional industrial fire truck
    • built primarily around onboard water carriage
    • vehicle architecture is dominated by tank volume
    • firefighting system is added on top of the vehicle concept
    • operational autonomy depends heavily on water carried onboard
  • JETEX Two-Phase Platform
    • built around the extinguishing stream itself
    • intended to operate from external industrial water supply
    • chassis capacity is reserved for the systems required to generate the JETEX stream in mobile mode
    • conceived as a dedicated industrial fire attack platform rather than a water transport vehicle

JETEX is not conceived as another water tanker.
It is conceived as a mobile industrial firefighting platform built around a high‑energy two‑phase extinguishing stream.

The JETEX firefighting principle

At the core of the platform is the JETEX two-phase extinguishing stream.

In the JETEX system, water, foam concentrate and compressed air are combined into a coherent two-phase firefighting stream designed for aggressive industrial fire attack. The objective is not simply to create airflow around the fire, but to generate a powerful extinguishing jet capable of delivering cooling effect, foam application and fire suppression performance deep into the fire zone.

The vehicle platform is built around this principle. Its architecture exists to supply the air flow, pumping capacity, control logic and mobility required to deploy the JETEX stream in real industrial conditions.

Indicative platform architecture

The JETEX Two‑Phase Platform is conceived as an integrated industrial firefighting vehicle built around the following functional modules:

1

JETEX Monitor and Mixing Unit

Roof‑mounted firefighting monitor and mixing assembly generating the JETEX two-phase extinguishing stream.

2

Air Compressor Unit

Onboard compressor package supplying the compressed air required for mobile JETEX operation.

3

Foam System

Foam tank and associated proportioning / delivery architecture for hydrocarbon fire scenarios.

4

Pump Unit

Vehicle-integrated pump package designed to work with external industrial water supply and deliver the required water flow to the JETEX system.

5

Control and Integration

Control logic, monitor operation, pump control, system management and overall vehicle integration functions.

6

External Water Supply Unit

Water supply interface with filtration, pressure regulation and metering to feed the JETEX system.

Why the platform is designed around external water supply

The JETEX platform is intended for industrial sites where firewater is already available through hydrants, ring mains, pump stations or other site infrastructure.

For this reason, the platform is not designed as a municipal-style tanker truck. Instead, chassis capacity is reserved for the systems required to generate the JETEX stream in mobile mode.

This approach reflects the reality of many industrial fire scenarios: the critical limitation is often not the availability of water itself, but the ability to deliver an effective extinguishing stream into a major hydrocarbon fire quickly, powerfully and from a practical distance.

  • Typical supply environment
    • industrial firewater ring mains
    • tank farm pump stations
    • hydrants and fixed site water networks
    • port and terminal water systems
    • temporary supply from industrial infrastructure or support vehicles

From prototype to industrial platform

JETEX has already developed and demonstrated a functional container‑based firefighting prototype.

The current objective is to translate the JETEX firefighting principle into a professionally integrated mobile industrial vehicle platform suitable for independent validation, prototype engineering and future industrial deployment.

Development path

Step 1—Firefighting principle demonstrated

Step 2—Container prototype developed

Step 3—Prototype vehicle concept under development

Step 4—Integration, validation and industrialization

Who may be interested in this concept

Industrial operators Refineries, tank farms, terminals, petrochemical plants and other high-risk facilities evaluating future firefighting solutions for large hydrocarbon fire scenarios.

OEM vehicle manufacturers Firefighting vehicle builders interested in prototype integration, platform engineering or future product cooperation.

Engineering and integration partnersSpecialists in vehicle packaging, pumps, air-power systems, controls, thermal management and industrial platform design.

Strategic or licensing partners Companies exploring regional manufacturing, technology cooperation or future commercialization of the JETEX platform concept.

Possible next steps

JETEX is open to discussions with selected industrial partners, vehicle manufacturers, engineering integrators and operators interested in:

  • prototype vehicle development
  • industrial validation projects
  • regional platform adaptation
  • future manufacturing cooperation
  • licensing and commercialization opportunities

The current concept can be developed further in several directions depending on the intended market, operational environment and partner profile.
