Precautions to be taken when deviation from normal state
In case of any leakage or spillage
1. Try to stop the leak if possible.
2. Clean the spill as soon as possible, no matter how small the chemicals are to be spilled.
3. If the spilled liquid is a flammable liquid, the environment is immediately ventilated. If the
spilled liquid vapor is irritating or toxic, a full face mask is used.
4. Flammable - No sparking equipment is used when flammable and explosive liquids and dusts
are cleaned. Eliminate all magmatic sources. No smoking.
5. Clean the dust with a wet broom or vacuum.
6. Small Spill: If the product is soluble in water, dilute with distilled water and clean by dipping.
Alternatively, if not water-soluble, absorb debris with an inert, dry material and place in a
suitable waste disposal container.
7. Large Spill: Empty the area if the leak can not be stopped. Wash spilled material in a wastewater
treatment plant or continue as follows;
Collect spillage and absorb in sand, earth or other nonflammable material.
Place wastes in labeled and stamped containers.
Clean contaminated items and areas thoroughly, taking into account environmental
regulations.
Contaminated absorbent material may present similar hazards, such as in spilled
material. Wash contaminated area with plenty of water.
Once you have a crush, clean yourself up. Dangerous for the environment. Do not
empty the sewer.
Dispose of the wastes at a licensed waste disposal facility in accordance with local
Waste Disposal Marines requirements.
Unusual temperature arising above TS, any alarm or faulty cooling unit:
If temperature is checked frequently, deviation will be noticed at an early stage and as a
result there will be enough time for emergency precautions.
Always call your emergency number.
