Abstract
A device is disclosed to draw off or store viscous mass which is discharged from a process for example as a result of exothermal events. The device contains at least one unit which has one inlet for the viscous mass and one outlet and is at least partly filled with a non combustible liquid inert to the viscous mass. The unit can be in the form of a pipe or a receptacle. Preferably several units in the form of a pipe can be connected one with the other respectively with a unit in the form of a receptacle. The solution discharged can then be transported via the pipes to the receptacle.
