Chemical Spill* Regional Poison Center: 1-800-222-1222 UF lab and maintenance personnel should only clean up incidental spills** and releases; specially trained personnel should respond to all other spills or releases. Incidental Chemical Spill Alert personnel in the immediate area. Avoid breathing vapors and try to determine what has spilled. Turn off ignition sources in the immediate area If someone has been splashed with chemical, immediately flush the affected area with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Follow the personal injury/exposure incident guidance. Wear protective equipment including safety goggles, disposable gloves, shoe covers, and long-sleeve lab coat. Confine the spill to a small area. Use a commercial kit or the materials discussed in the Lab Safety Guide to pick-up spilled materials. Place the used absorbent in a plastic bag, label the bag with a UF waste tag, and include it in the next hazardous waste pickup. Clean spill area with water.

43. Steps For Cleaning Up Chemical Spills An outline of the procedure that should be followed after a chemical spill. http://www.resource4thepeople.com/environmentallaw/chemicalspills.html

Chemical Spills Free Environmental Law Case Review Chemical spills can have a long lasting impact on our society and our environment if it is not properly cleaned up in a prompt manner. Whoever is responsible for the spill is also responsible for the clean-up process. If a company works directly with chemicals on a regular basis then it is required that they develop a spill response plan and have the appropriate protective equipment to treat a chemical spill. There are thousands of chemicals that can imperil the health and safety of innocent people. It is the responsibility of the industries that use, transport, and manufacture potentially dangerous pollutants to protect the public from the harmful affects of their products, and if they fail to do so they can sometimes be held financially accountable for their negligence. Social Bookmarking Chemical spills are particularly dangerous because they can affect a large number of people very quickly. Furthermore, they can be extremely difficult to clean up, especially when the responsible companies fail to alert the proper authorities. For example, the dangerous chemical benzene is so dangerous that those responsible for the spill must alert the Environmental Protection Agency if only 10 pounds escape into the environment. As with any industrial accident, there are several ways chemical spills can occur. Accidents in transport can rupture shipping containers, or chemical byproducts can leak from disposal areas, or the chemicals may be handled or stored improperly. Safety technology has improved dramatically over the last few decades, but unfortunately accidents still happen.

Chemical Spills If a chemical spill occurs: Immediately alert all other people in the laboratory and attend to any injuries. In the event materials are splashed in the eyes , go immediately to the eye wash station and rinse the eyes with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes . Immediate, thorough washing of your eyes with water may save your vision in the event of an accident. After a complete washing , you should be taken to the emergency room for an eye examination (see Medical Procedures). Use the Safety Showers when large areas of the body are exposed to hazardous chemicals during a spill or accident . Quickly remove all contaminated clothing while using the safety shower. Remove all clothing below the affected area and minimize further contact with the chemical by cutting away the clothing if necessary. It is especially important not to pull contaminated clothing over the face or eyes. Seconds count, and no time should be wasted because of modesty. Immediately flood the affected body area in cold water for at least 15 minutes. Resume if pain returns. Wash off chemicals with a mild detergent and water but do not use neutralizing chemicals, unguents, creams, lotions or salves. Get medical attention as soon as possible (see Medical Procedures). Clothes must be laundered separately before reuse.

By Ahmed Shihab-Eldin Greenpoint Petroleum Remediation Project: West Side Corporation Site: Hexagon Laboratories: Wedged between industrial and residential buildings in the Northeast Bronx, Hexagon manufactured organic chemicals and pharmaceuticals from the 1940s through 1989. Tanks were used for the storage of hazardous wastes (toluene, xylene, etc.). Asbestos was present, and in 1990 the NYPD Bomb Squad removed explosives, water-reactive metals, poisons and compressed-gas cylinders from the location. In 1993, the DEC placed it on the Superfund Registry. Soil and groundwater cleanup efforts are still under way.

You can clean these up. Neutralize or absorb the spill. Contact EHS if you have any questions. Remember, if the spilled material is hazardous it must be treated as such after it has been cleaned up. Check with EHS for guidance on disposal of spill clean up materials. Complicated Spills first need to be identified as complicated. Ask the following questions: Is the identity of the chemical unknown? Are multiple chemicals involved? Is the material highly toxic, highly corrosive, flammable, or reactive? Did the spill occur in a public space, such as a hallway? Is the spill in danger of spreading to other parts of the building, such as through the ventilation system? Are you unsure about how to clean this spill up?

Dealing with chemical spills from industry Introduction: Harmful and long term effects of pollution are a raising concern that has forced governments to form hundreds of different organizations to study, plan, control or prevent industrial pollutions. Chemical spills are by far the most devastating causes of soil and water pollution in the word and the affects often remain for many centuries. When liquid chemicals enter the ground, they are practically out of control. They get to under ground waters and then travel in different directions for many miles. Removing contaminations caused by chemical spills is now a big profitable business for many environmental protection companies around the world. In this project we will study about dealing with chemical spills and attempt to discover new or existing methods that can be used to cleanup the contaminations caused by a chemical spill. Project description: In this project you will simulate different spill related contaminations and examine different methods that might be used for cleanup. All experiments can be performed using the material and equipment that can be found at home or can be obtained locally.
