Book Guidelines for the Selection of Chemical Protective Clothing  Volume 2  Technical and Reference Manual

Download or read book Guidelines for the Selection of Chemical Protective Clothing Volume 2 Technical and Reference Manual written by A. D. Schwope and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of protective clothing items are commercially available for emergency response and other applications where chemical hazards may be encountered. Data and information for selecting chemical protective clothing is either not available or is inconsistant from source to source. In 1983, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sponsored the development of chemical protective clothing selection guidelines to assist their own Office of Health and Safety in providing guidance to personnel, primarily EPA employees and contractors, working on hazardous waste sites. These guidelines allowed a user to select an 'appropriate' protective material for a specific chemical, select a clothing item (glove, suit, etc.), and then determine which manufacturers offered the clothing item in the recommended material. The U.S, Coast Guard Office of Research and Development and the EPA have supplemented these guidelines with additional data on material chemical resistance, material physical properties, clothing design features, and specific vendor products. A chapter has been added for selecting chemical protective suits. These guidelines contain data for over 750 chemicals and 700 clothing products. Volume I provides performance information and recommendations for selecting different types of protective clothing. Volume II contains a detailed technical discussion, and the data on which Volume I recommendations are based. The U.S. Coast Guard intends to use these guidelines for protective clothing selection by its National Strike Force and Marine Safety Offices. Keywords: Chemical Resistance Data; Material Physical Property Data.

  • Pages : 636 pages

Download or read book Handbook of Air Toxics written by Lawrence H. Keith and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-09-10 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Air Toxics compiles, defines, and clarifies several methods and concepts of airborne toxic substances found in the environment. This comprehensive reference helps regulators, consultants, and other environmental professionals meet the challenges of sampling and analysis, emissions reductions, and health and safety issues related to human exposure. It is an important reference addressing the ongoing concern about the consequences of air pollution, and the implementation and modification of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Clean Air Act. Some of the methods described in the Handbook of Air Toxics include fluorescence, thermal desorption, selected ion monitoring, ion chromatography, light microscopy, specific electrode analysis, titration, colorimetry, atomic absorption, and spectrophotometry. It also covers the use of isokinetic sampling trains, midget impingers, carbon molecular sieves, and sampling canisters in the analysis of air toxics. The Handbook also contains recommendations from the EPA for analytical methods for those air toxics where methods do not already exist and provides advance information on future method development by the EPA.

Book Guidelines for Technical Planning for On Site Emergencies

Download or read book Guidelines for Technical Planning for On Site Emergencies written by CCPS (Center for Chemical Process Safety) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-09 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prevention, preparedness, response and recovery--the key components of emergency planning--form the major sections of this work. The book first describes PSM (Process Safety Management) as the key to prevention, then goes on to consider the main features of a preparedness program, including recognizing credible incidents, planning practical strategy to deal with these incidents, selecting necessary physical support systems and equipment, and developing a complete emergency response plan. The Response section presents the functions implemented during an actual emergency and concludes with a section on managing cleanup and restoration of operations. The many tables and figures include Sample Incident Command System Plans for both large and small organizations, OSHA and EPA regulations affecting planning, sample Fire Emergency Action Levels, HAZMAT Responder Levels, and OSHA Emergency Training Requirements.

Book Chemicals and Society

    Book Details:
  • Author : Hugh D. Crone
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1986-10-16
  • ISBN : 9780521308694
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book Chemicals and Society written by Hugh D. Crone and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986-10-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys the use, abuse and misuse of chemicals in our society. The disaster at Bhopal, the use of Agent Orange and chemical warfare in the Gulf all provide sobering, if sensational, examples of the potential dangers of chemicals, whilst the invidious accumulation of a wide range of chemicals in the environment is attracting increased publicity if not informed debate. Hugh Crone redresses this balance by providing a scientific yet accessible account of the benefits and risks of the increasing use of chemicals in society, whether they are used as drugs, food additives, herbicides or simply enter the environment as by-products of an industrial society. He describes how chemicals gain entry to the body and how their toxicity is assessed; particular examples are studied in detail to illustrate the complexities of the issues involved; other chapters consider chemical warfare and disarmament, the safe handling of chemicals and the problems of legislation and compensation.
