What Kind of Container is Safe for Storing Gasoline?

[PenelopeMarie]

Gasoline should be stored in metal containers for safety. Reasons why metal containers are safer: When refueling cars or motorcycles at gas stations, some drivers often prepare a plastic container to hold gasoline, which is very dangerous. Gasoline is a hazardous material, and direct filling can cause static electricity to accumulate due to the non-conductive nature of plastic bottles or containers, potentially leading to an explosion. Therefore, plastic containers should not be used; metal containers are safer. Regulations on purchasing bulk gasoline: According to regulations from the National Public Security Bureau, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and other relevant authorities, customers purchasing bulk gasoline must obtain a certificate from the local police station. Gas stations can only dispense gasoline upon presentation of the police certificate and the buyer's ID, after completing real-name registration under safe conditions.
