Abstract

A blast containment system for trash cans includes a donut-shaped bag having a sealed donut-shaped bottom positioned at the base of the trash can, and an open donut-shaped top positioned and retained at a top periphery of the trash can. An open-ended tubular region extends through the bag between its donut-shaped top and donut-shaped bottom. A rigid container having an open top is disposed in the tubular region of the bag with its open top being coupled to the donut-shaped top of the bag. A liquid fills the bag.
