Section 7. Handling and storage
Conditions for safe storage,
including any
incompatibilities
Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in a segregated and approved area.
Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated
area, away from incompatible materials (see Section 10) and food and drink. Store
locked up. Eliminate all ignition sources. Separate from oxidizing materials. Keep
container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that have been
opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in
unlabeled containers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination. See Section 10 for incompatible materials before handling or use.
:
Bulk Storage Conditions: Maintain all storage tanks in accordance with applicable
regulations. Use necessary controls to monitor tank inventories. Inspect all storage
tanks on a periodic basis. Test tanks and associated piping for tightness. Maintain the
automatic leak detection devices to assure proper working condition.
Head spaces in tanks and other containers may contain a mixture of air and vapor in
the flammable range. Vapor may be ignited by static discharge. Storage area must
meet OSHA requirements and applicable fire codes. Additional information regarding
the design and control of hazards associated with the handling and storage of
flammable and combustible liquids may be found in professional and industrial
documents including, but not limited to, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
publications NFPA 30 ("Flammable and Combustible Liquid Code"), NFPA 77
("Recommended Practice on Static Electricity") and the American Petroleum Institute
(API) Recommended Practice 2003, (“Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static,
Lightning, and Stray Currents").
Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Environmental exposure
controls
:
Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, vapor controls, filters or engineering modifications to the process equipment will
be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Appropriate engineering
controls
:
Use only with adequate ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or
other engineering controls to keep worker exposure to airborne contaminants below any
recommended or statutory limits. The engineering controls also need to keep gas,
vapor or dust concentrations below any lower explosive limits. Use explosion-proof
ventilation equipment.
Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products, before
eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working period.
Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated clothing before reusing. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety
showers are close to the workstation location.
