TREATMENT SYSTEM IF ALLOWED. DIKE LARGE SPILLS. DO NOT WASH INTO STORM OR
SANIT ARY SEWER SYSTEM.
Neutralizing Agent: LIME OR SODA ASH (MIN 5.2 LBS PER GALLON OF ELECTROLYTE)
Waste Disposal Methods: NEUTRALIZE WITH LIME OR SODA ASH. CONSULT REGULATIONS.
EPA HAZARDOUS WASTE D0002- CORROSIVE SND D0003-REACTIVE IF DISCARDED.
Handling And Storage Precautions: DO NOT STORE NEAR ORGANICS. HYDROGEN MAY BE
GENERATED INSIDE DRUMS AND TANKS. AVOID FLAMES AND SPARKS.
Other Precautions: NEVER ADD WATER TO CONTAINERS OF ACID. BEWARE OF ACID
REACTION IN SEWERS THAT MAY PRODUCE FLAMMABLE HYDROGEN GAS OR TOXIC HYDROGEN
SULFIDE.
=======================================================
Fire and Explosion Hazard Information
=======================================================
Flash Point Text: NONFLAMMABLE
Lower Limits: NONFLAMMABLE
Upper Limits: NONFLAMMABLE
Extinguishing Media: DRY CHEMICAL OR CARBON DIOXIDE FOR SMALL FIRES. WATER FOG
FOR LARGE FIRES.
Fire Fighting Procedures: DO NOT DIRECT WATER INTO ACID TANKS. COOL OUTSIDE OF
TANKS WITH WATER. WEAR FULL-FACE, SELF-CONTAINED RESPIRATOR, RUBBERIZED OUTER
WEAR, GLOVES, AND BOOTS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard: WILL NOT BURN BUT CAN START FIRES WITH ORGANIC
MATERIAL, NITRATES, CARBIDES, CHLORATES, AND METAL POWDERS. FLAMMABLE
HYDROGEN GAS CAN FORM IN CONTAINERS.
=======================================================
Control Measures
=======================================================
Respiratory Protection: WHEN NEEDED USE NIOSH OR MSHA APPROVED HALF OR
FULL-FACE MASK WITH ACID GAS CARTRIDGE. FOR HIGH CONCENTRATIONS, USE SELF-
CONTAINED BREATHING UNIT.
Ventilation: LOCAL EXHAUST. NOTE: VENTILATE STORAGE TANKS BEFORE ENTERING.
Protective Gloves: RUBBER
Eye Protection: CHEMICAL GOGGLES OR FULL FACE SHIELD.
Other Protective Equipment: RUBBER SAFETY SHOES/BOOTS. RUBER APRON OR FULL SUIT
IF SPLASHES LIKELY.
Work Hygienic Practices: PROHIBIT SMOKING. PROVIDE SAFETY SHOWERS AND EYE
WASHES NEAR WORK SITE. TRAIN EMPLOYEES IN CHEMICAL HANDLING PRACTICES.
Supplemental Safety and Health: HYDROGEN GAS MAY ACCUMULATE IN CONTAINERS.
AVOID IGNITION SOURCES. SPILL OVER INTO SEWERS MAY GENERATE HYDROGEN GAS OR
TOXIC HYDROGEN SULFIDE. ADDITION OF WATER TO ACID CAUSES HEAT AND POSSIBLE
SPLATT ERING.
