A fire suppression system at George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston accidentally released PFAS-free foam, covering vehicles and equipment in a United Airlines hangar. Local authorities responded to the incident, and the foam was later removed. A video showed the foam spilled all over the hangar. The foam was removed after creating a low-pressure area around the fire, related to the Venturi effect.
