17 NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Recognizing Hazardous Materials

18 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Recognizing Hazardous Materials Read Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) –A document provided by the manufacturer –Contain ingredients and lists the hazards of materials –Lists routes of exposure and proper PPE that should be worn when handling –Has spill response, disposal and other environmental information –Contains contacts if further information is needed Material Safety Data Sheets MSDS

19 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com http://cispro.mu.edu/

20 NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Container Labeling

21 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Label Flammability Hazard Reactivity Hazard Specific Hazards Health Hazard NFPA –Colors and numbers are used to communicate the potential hazards of a material.

22 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com NFPA: Health Hazard

23 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com NFPA: Flammability Hazard

24 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com NFPA: Reactivity Hazard

25 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com NFPA: Specific Hazards

26 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com DOT Labels

27 NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Hazardous Material Handling and Proper Personal Protective Equipment

28 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Considerations when Handling Hazardous Materials Use common sense! Think before you act Follow good housekeeping procedures –Clean-up after yourself Always wear the proper PPE Know the hazards of the materials you are working with! Create and use chemical specific SOP’s (Safe Operating Procedures)

29 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Controlling Hazards 1.Engineering Controls Eliminate the hazard from the workplace 2.Administrative Controls Limit worker contact with the hazard Training/Procedures, Good Housekeeping 3.PPE LAST RESORT Material Handling and Proper PPE

30 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com PPE = Last Resort When PPE is the primary control measure, the hazard is still present in the environment Failure of the PPE or improper usage can expose the worker to the full effect of the hazards present in the environment

31 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Types of PPE Head Protection Eye/Face Protection Hearing Protection Foot Protection Respiratory Protection Hand and Arm Protection Electrical Protective Devices Special Work Clothing

32 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Considerations for PPE Selection: The types of hazards you will be in contact with –Physical Hazards –Chemical Hazards The specific chemicals you will be in contact with The concentration of these chemicals The length of time the PPE is to be worn The durability of the PPE

33 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com PPE continued PPE Limitations –Degradation –Permeation/Breakthrough –Penetration –Tears/Rips –Location PPE Failure –Knowing how to recognize PPE failure is crucial since PPE is the last line of protection between you and the chemical –Limit contact time with the chemical/hazard and inspect and change PPE frequently

34 NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Satellite Accumulation Procedures

35 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Satellite Accumulation “A generator may accumulate as much as 55 gallons of hazardous waste…in containers at or near any point of generation…which is under the control of the operator…” Up to 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste (P-coded) can be collected in a satellite accumulation area Your research labs, student labs or other rooms where materials are collected and accumulated are considered to be Satellite Accumulation Areas

36 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Satellite Accumulation Containers must remain closed when not adding waste Must be leak-proof and in good condition Containers must be compatible with contents –No corrosive materials in metal containers Store liquid wastes in secondary containers –Must be able to hold 110% of the largest containers volume Containers must be moved to storage location within 3 days after being filled Material name must be on label – NO CHEMICAL FORMULAS OR ABBREVIATIONS!!! The container must have the words “hazardous waste”

37 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Accumulation Start Date There are two (2) Regulations to follow: 1.Material can not be stored / accumulated in satellite accumulation area for more than one year. 2.Material can not be stored for more than 90 days in 90-Day Storage Area. So, please put the date that you start accumulating material on the Hazardous Waste Tag. Before submitting for disposal, please cross-out and initial by the old date and write in the current date

38 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Example of Inadequate Labeling

39 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Example of Inadequate Labeling

40 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Container Management Attach label BEFORE adding waste Container must be closed when not adding waste –Lids must be on – no funnels Containers should be kept in their designated areas Keep the outsides of containers free of waste Do not use the top of the container as a storage shelf Free access to containers must be maintained at all times! Segregate Chemicals according to compatibility

41 Hazard Storage ClassStorage TypeExamples Inorganic Acids Corrosives Cabinet Do not store acids and bases in same cabinet Conc. Hydrochloric Acid (37%), Phosphoric Acid Less than concentrated: Sulfuric Acid, Nitric Acid Organic AcidsCorrosives Cabinet Dichloroacetic Acid, EDTA (ethylenedinitrilo tetraacetic acid), Thimerosal BasesCorrosives Cabinet Do not store acids and bases in same cabinet Ammonium Hydroxide, Calcium Oxide, Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Hydroxide Oxidizing / Special Handling Inorganic Acids Corrosives Cabinet Cabinet labeled ‘Oxidizing / Special Handling Inorganic Acids’ Separate secondary containment for each (& label) Bromine, Hydrofluoric Acid Concentrated: Nitric Acid (70%), Perchloric Acid (60%), Sulfuric Acid (96%) OxidizersGeneral Storage Cabinet Cabinet labeled ‘Oxidizers’ Sodium Hypochlorite. The following are generally considered oxidizing substances: Peroxides, Perchlorates, Chlorates, Nitrates, Nitrites and less than concentrated Perchloric Acid. ToxicsDesignated Storage Cabinet Cabinet labeled ‘Toxics’, use secondary containment Chloroform, Ethidium Bromide, Lead, Mercury Compounds, Potassium Cyanide, Phenol FlammablesFlammable Storage Cabinet Only keep flammables in a flammable cabinet Acetone, Acetic Acid, Benzene, Ethyl Ether, Formaldehyde, Heptane, Hexane, Methanol, Pentane, Picric Acid, Toluene, Xylene NONE General Storage Cabinet Double check NFPA Ratings to ensure general storage is appropriate MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY CHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY IN STORAGE Keep stored incompatible chemicals apart from each other. Keep incompatible chemicals apart by cabinet, drawer, shelving unit or shelf. For liquid and high hazard chemicals, secondary containers are effective tools to prevent reactions between incompatible chemicals. When storing reactive chemicals, secondary containment can prevent degradation and reactions that occur during storage. It is best to use secondary containers made of materials that are non-reactive (i.e., polyethylene, polypropylene). Refer to Marquette’s Guidelines for Preventing Chemical Incompatibility Hazards. If there is an asterisk with the hazard storage class number (6*), the chemical is considered to be a particularly hazardous substance by Marquette University. A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is required for all particularly hazardous substances.

42 NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com 90-Day Hazardous Waste Accumulation Area Procedures

43 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com 90-Day Storage Area Full, labeled and dated containers should be brought here for storage until the next waste pickup Accumulation date is the date it is brought into storage area Containers labeled and label is facing forwards Containers must be clean, closed and intact Incompatible materials must be segregated There must be at least 3 feet of aisle space at all times The area must be free of debris and spills These parameters above are federal & state regulations that must be followed or fines will be incurred!!

44 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com The 90-day storage area is inspected weekly to ensure that all of these regulations are complied with Waste can only be stored in the accumulation area for 90 days Any waste brought into the storage area must be marked on the waste generation form that is to be sent to Dennis

54 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Why chemicals are dangerous? Chemicals can cause: - Burns - Adverse health effects - Permanent disabilities - Death Sometimes problems occur immediately (Acute effect) Others may happen after years of exposure (Chronic effect). Dangerous to you…

55 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Spill Prevention Planning Only buy and store amount of material needed Buy the least hazardous materials possible Use non-hazardous materials when possible Minimize traffic in the area Store liquid wastes in secondary containers Regularly inspect containers to ensure their integrity Be aware of evacuation routes and emergency equipment

56 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Managing A Spill What type and size of spills am I capable of managing? You should only be cleaning up small spills (less than 1 gallon) of known materials that you work with on a regular basis after you have had attended a hands-on training session given by the EHS department. Small spill clean-up kits are located in the 90-day storage area and in “all” laboratories. Notify the Public Safety Department (x8-1911) for larger spills, or spills containing reactive or highly toxic materials. Public Safety will notify the proper authorities.

57 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Spill Kits These spill kits contain everything you need to properly manage a small spill in your labs. These are available from EH&S. Please contact Dennis Daye to place an order.

58 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com In the event of a chemical spill, first decide if you are trained, knowledgeable and equipped to handle the incident. Prepare a plan of action (e.g. waiting for help, attend to injured, shutting off the valve, turn off ignition sources in presence of flammables if safe to do so) Immediately evacuate the lab and notify Public Safety if there is a possibility of an acute respiratory hazard present or if you need assistance to clean up the spill. –Never proceed to clean up a spill if you do not know the hazards associated with the chemical or if you are unsure of how to clean up the spill. If anyone is injured or contaminated, immediately notify Public Safety and begin decontamination measures or first aid, if trained. Make sure to wear the proper PPE. –Apron, Gloves, Goggles, etc. Managing A Spill…

59 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Contain the spill (Stopping the source and stopping the spread) stopping the source includes: –Closing a valve; –Shutting down a pump to stop flow; –Putting “bandage” around a leaking hose; –Positioning of leaking container. stopping the spread includes: –Building a barrier around the spill; –Make a flow channel; –Use of absorbent or spill pads; Managing A Spill…

60 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Absorbent should be distributed over the entire spill area, working from the outside, circling to the inside. –This stops the spread of the spilled chemical. When spilled materials have been absorbed, use brush and scoop to place materials in an appropriate container (bag is provided in spill kits). –Dispose of any contaminated PPE used during cleanup. Complete hazardous waste sticker, identifying the material as Spill Debris involving XYZ Chemical, and affix onto the container. Arrange for pick-up by EH&S Dept. as soon as possible. Managing A Spill…

61 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com When managing a spill of a flammable liquid… –Turn off all sources of ignition –Lay the chemical spill pads over the spill Pads are designed to suppress flammable vapors –Allow pads to completely absorb the liquid –Place the pads in plastic disposal bag –Wipe up any remaining liquid with paper towel –Dispose of the paper towel in plastic bag –Seal bag and attach a completed hazardous waste sticker Flammable Liquids

62 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Remember that absorbed materials have the same properties and hazards as the original spilled materials. Safely dispose all disposable coveralls, gloves and respirators. Decontaminate all non-disposable items (brooms, shovels, tongs, protective clothing) using a mild detergent and water. Arrange for pick up by EH&S Dept. as soon as possible. After the spill…

63 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com Review what happened to prevent reoccurrence. No matter how small the spill, keep a record of what happened. Make sure that supplies (e.g. first aid, spill control kit) are replaced immediately. (Contact EH&S) ONLY HANDLE SPILLS OF A GALLON OR LESS OF A KNOWN MATERIAL. FOR LARGE SPILLS OR REACTIVE MATERIALS CONTACT PUBLIC SAFETY (x8-1911). After the spill…

64 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com What to do when an emergency occurs… TAKE CARE OF THE SAFETY OF YOURSELF AND OTHERS! Activate the building’s fire alarm system. If you have bodily contact with material: –immediately remove any contaminated clothing –flush the area with copious amounts of water Call Public Safety at 288-1911 –Identify yourself and why you are calling –Identify the exact location and nature of the emergency –Identify any injuries of symptoms involved –Identify all hazardous materials involved (if known)

65 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com What to do when an emergency occurs… Evacuate building to a safe distance (at least 100 feet) leave clear access for emergency personnel Keep all persons exposed in the same area. They should not leave until they are cleared by proper authorities. If you have time to do so safely –Close, but do not lock, doors behind you to isolate the area –Turn off, unplug, or remove potential sources of ignition –Contain the spill material with berms or other means –Post a sign to warn others not to enter the area YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS SHOULD BE YOUR TOP PRIORITY!

66 NORTH AMERICA www.VeoliaES.com NORTH AMERICA TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS www.VeoliaES.com This is a general awareness training. You are not trained as an emergency responder and should not attempt to manage emergencies. Emergency agencies such as the Fire Department, Police Department and Haz Mat Response Teams will be responsible for situations other than easily contained spills or incidental situations.
