What wetting agents are used by fire departments, any new kind being tried?

Question

I know about the use of wetting agents added to water to fight fires and they are expensive. I also know of something new being tried. Anyone out there know about an organic substance being tried?

Answer 1

Sure. Alot of foams and wetting agents are protein based and therefore considered organic. This, however, isn't anything new, protein foams have been around for years.
