What is the maximum legal capacity for storing flammable liquids in a single container?

The maximum legal capacity for storing flammable liquids in a single container is 5 gallons. This limit is established to mitigate the risks associated with flammable substances, ensuring safety within laboratory environments and storage facilities. Storing liquids in containers of this size helps minimize the potential for spills, leaks, and accidental ignition, which can occur with larger quantities. By adhering to this guideline, laboratories can ensure compliance with safety regulations, reduce hazards associated with flammable liquids, and protect personnel and property from the dangers of fires or explosions.
