SECTION 6 — ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions:
Wearing protective clothing. Inhalation protection. Extinguish all ignition sources.
Environmental Precautions
Keep spills and cleaning runoffs out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
Waste Disposal Method:
Absorb with sand or other diminishing material. Coagulate the emulsion by the
stepwise of Ferric Chloride and Lime. Remove the clear supernatant liquid and
flush to a chemical sewer. Incinerate the solids and the contaminated diking material
according to local, state, and federal regulations.
If Material is Released/Spilled:
Keep spectators away. Dike and contain spill with inert material (e.g. sand, earth).
Keep spills and cleaning runoffs out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
SECTION 7 — HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Use in well-ventilated areas; avoid breathing vapors. Keep containers closed when
not in use. Avoid from freezing.
Storage:
Storage temperature: Max. 49°C/120°F 1°C/34°F
Other Precautions:
Store in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation. Keep from freezing - product
may coagulate

Personal Protection
Eye/Face Protection
Use safety glasses. Where contract with the material is likely, chemical goggles are
recommended be-cause eye contract may cause discomfort even thought it is unlikely
to cause injury.
Skin Protection
No precautions other than clean body covering clothing should be needed.
Hand Protection
Chemical protective gloves should not be needed when handling this material.
Consistent with general hygienic practice for any material, skin contact should be
minimized.
Respiratory Protection
Atmospheric levels should be maintained below the exposure guideline.
Ingestion
Use good personal hygiene. Do not consume or store food in the work area. Wash
hands before smok-ing or eating.
