The cargo ship Felicity Ace is aflame from bow to stern with a lithium-ion battery fire that can’t be put out with water alone. The ship left Germany on Feb. 10 and headed for the US with about 4,000 Porsches, Bentleys and other luxury cars aboard, and some of those were electric vehicles. It’s not clear if the batteries contributed to the fire starting in the first place—a greasy rag in a lubricant-slicked engine room or a fuel leak are the usual suspects in ship fires—but the batteries are keeping the flames going now.

Lithium metal

Lithium is in the first rank of the Periodic Table along with Sodium metal. It has the ability to burn and water only adds to the fire problem and can also be explosive.

When in High School in Chicago some kid threw Sodium metal in the urinal in boys room and blew it up. Needless to say he was promptly expelled.

And it wasn't me who did that. I was a rock hound when a kid and I knew the Periodic Table. Chemistry was an ace class. ;)
