A gas explosion occurs when a flammable gas, such as natural gas or propane, accumulates in an enclosed space and ignites. This ignition can happen due to a spark, flame, or even a high temperature. The rapid expansion of gases during combustion creates a powerful blast, which can cause significant damage to buildings and pose serious risks to human safety. These explosions can happen in various settings, including homes, industrial facilities, and construction sites. Proper safety measures, such as regular maintenance of gas lines and the installation of gas detectors, are essential to prevent such dangerous incidents and protect lives.
