The V-shaped carrier is an example of which type of hazmat carrier?

• A. Gas
• B. Cryogenic
• C. Dry bulk
• D. Liquid

Answer: (C)

The V-shaped carrier is designed for solids that flow by gravity, using a funnel or hopper bottom to help material discharge through bottom openings. This makes it a dry bulk carrier—the kind that carries powders or grains like cement, grain, or fertilizer and unloads by gravity without pumps. Gas carriers are tanks for compressed or liquefied gases, cryogenic carriers are insulated for very low temperatures, and liquid carriers are designed to hold liquids with appropriate seals and vents. So the V-shaped interior specifically supports dry bulk solids, not liquids or gases.
