  • the present invention introduces methods and apparatuses for preventing unwanted fires by inhibiting ignition of a combustible mixture and or suppressing and/or preventing propagation of a flame as well as prevention of an explosion caused by the rapid escalation of the fire. It is based on experimented observations that three dimensional networks of meshes of various solid materials have quenching effects for the inhibition of ignitions and suppression of flame propagation. Therefore, such a network serves as a quenching structure.
