Had a liitle fire that I think may have been caused by spontaneous combustion.
Scenario:
Aluminum "sawdust", chips and small pieces deposited in a plastic bag in a plastic trash container. Could easily have been 50 lbs. or more. It was probably contaminated with oils, water and maybe even cement dust and/or drywall mud dust.
Nobody was nearby when it happened (at night).
My Web search says that this may be possible. Can any of you chemicals help this structural and verify that this is indeed a very real possibility.
Thanks for any help
