1. A fire extinguishing biochemical liquid solution ready-for-use in extinguishing fire, comprising:
a quantity of water for dispersing potassium ions dissolved in water;
a fire inhibiting agent in the form of an alkali metal salt of a nonpolymeric saturated carboxylic acid, specifically tripotassium citrate, for providing potassium ions dispersed in the water when tripotassium citrate is dissolved in the water; and
a dispersing agent in the form of an organic compound containing three carboxylic acid groups, or salt/ester derivatives thereof, specifically triethyl citrate, an ester of citric acid, for dispersing potassium ions dissolved in water,
wherein, when said fire extinguishing biochemical liquid solution is sprayed over a fire as microdroplets, said microdroplets vaporize when absorbing heat energy radiated from the fire, and expand into vapor containing potassium ions that interfere with free radical chemical reactions within the combustion phase of the fire, thereby extinguishing the fire while microdroplets of said fire extinguishing biochemical liquid solution that coat combustible surfaces about the fire further inhibit fire ignition and flame spread on said combustible surfaces about said fire.
