Nanotechnology for the suppression of fires in agricultural land and forests

The article presents the results of a systematic analysis of the causes and consequences of forest and landscape fires in the USSR and in Russia, which indicate the lack of effective fire protection methods and means from them to date. It is shown that the world community, in addition to flooding landscape and forest fires, bunding and filling of their distribution paths with earth, has no other ways and means of suppressing them. The results of research and synthesis of nanotechnologies and models of fire-fighting helicopters are presented, in which the planet’s atmosphere is used as an “endless source of fire extinguishing composition”, which allows using the developed (thermomagnetic air separators) and produced (membrane air separators and helicopters) re-equip «Avialesookhrana» and the Ministry of Emergencies of Russia in order to reverse the growth trends of fires and losses from them in the forests and steppes of Russia. It is noted that the proposed nanotechnology for suppressing fire can be effectively used not only to extinguish fires on farmland and forests, but also on trunk oil and gas pipelines, vehicles on roads (away from settlements) and facilities in the mountains where water and other extinguishing agent delivery options arelimited
