Additional Spill Information
:
Remove all sources of ignition. Utilize emergency
response personal protection equipment prior to the
start of any response. Evacuate all non-essential
personnel. Dust Deposits should not be allowed to
accumulate on surfaces, as these may form an
explosive mixture if they are released into the
atmosphere in sufficient concentration. Avoid
dispersal of dust in the air (i.e., clearing dust
surfaces with compressed air). Nonsparking tools
should be used. Dispose of spill residues per
guidelines under Section 13, Disposal
Consideration.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
DO NOT BURN TREATED WOOD. Whenever possible,
sawing or machining treated or untreated wood should
be performed outdoors to avoid accumulations of
airborne wood dust. Wear gloves, eye protection, dust
mask and protective clothing. Do not use treated chips or
sawdust as mulch. Wash hands thoroughly before
eating, drinking, using tobacco products, and/or using
restrooms. Minimize dust generation and accumulation.
Routine housekeeping should be instituted to ensure that
dusts do not accumulate on surfaces. Dry powders can
build static electricity charges when subjected to the
friction of transfer and mixing operations. Provide
adequate precautions, such as electrical grounding and
bonding, or inert atmospheres. Refer to NFPA 654,
Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions
from the Manufacturing, Processing, and Handling of
Combustible Particulate Solids, for safe handling.
Storage:
Keep away from unguarded flame, sparks, and heat
sources. Protect from physical damage. Maintain good
housekeeping.
Incompatible Materials for
Storage:
