Abstract

A hazard control system according to various aspects of the present invention comprises a housing configured to contain a control material and deliver the control material to neutralize a hazard in response to a trigger event. In one embodiment, the control material is an extinguishant for retarding fire. The housing contains the extinguishant and includes at least one surface configured to rupture in response to a trigger event, such as an impact. The housing may also include a surface configured to substantially mate with a surface of a vehicle, such as a fuel tank surface.
