Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
- Immediate medical assistance required: yes.
- Skin contact: take off immediately all contaminated clothing. After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. May cause delayed burns. Seek medical advice.
- Eye contact: in case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
- Inhalation: remove to fresh air. If breating is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth. Seek medical advice.
- Ingestion: do not induce vomiting.
- Emergency equipment: provide wash facilities for eyes and skin near work area.
Fire-fighting measures
- Suitable extinguishing media: carbon dioxide, dry chemicals, foam, water spray (mist). Immediately cool containers with water spray. Use media appropriate for surrounding fire.
- Unsuitable: -
- Exposure hazards: high temperatures may liberate toxic or corrosive gases. Do not breathe fumes/vapours. Risk of explosion if heated under confinement.
- Protective equipment for fire-fighters: self contained breathing apparatus. Wear suitable protective clothing.
Accidental release measures
- Personal precautions: evacuate unnecessary personnel. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep upwind.
- Environmental precautions: contain any spill with dikes or absorbents to prevent migration and entry into sewers or streams. Knock down vapour cloud with spray of water or other appropriate solution.
- Methods for cleaning up: pump up the acid water coming from the gaz scrubber into a container properly labelled and acid-resistant. If it is not possible to recover the dilute acid resulting from water-spays or curtains, or if the pools are too small, neutralize with lime or sodium carbonate. Residue may be washed down with water.
Handling and storage
- Handling: should always be handled in a closed system. When using do not eat or drink. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Storage: store in dry, cool, well-ventilated area. Mechanical ventilation is recommended. Local ventilation is needed at bulk vessel openings.
