ABOUT
Chemical Online - Containment
Chemical wastes in solid, liquid or gaseous state can cause disruption of health, injuries and even deaths and also lead to serious forms of destruction of the environment if improperly processed, stored and transported.
Chemical containment refer to storing chemicalssuch as acids (minerals), alkalis, alcohols / glycols, fuels / oils and other organic and inorganic chemicals within specially manufactured barrels, containers, or drainage systems, rather than spilling it or letting it evaporate.
Since it is obliviously more eco-friendly solution, it is considered to be used rather than applying eco filters and so. It takes more time, space and money, but it is worth. All storage areas must be well secured to prevent access by unauthorized persons.
Depending on the type of chemicals, different methods of storing are used for containment. Chemical grade high performance unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins are suitable for the manufacture of tanks, pipes and containers for acids, alkalis, fuels, water and other demanding materials. There are frequently demanding chemical environments that require resistance to chemical attack and heat. In that case, chemical grade resins should be used.
When it comes to storing chemicals ourselves, things are a bit different. We must pay attention to some apparently irrelevant things. All kinds of chemicals have to be stored separated, inside a closeable cabinet, well secured, and preferably locked, out of reach of children, pets, etc.
Take extra care when storing materials that in combination may cause a fire or explosion such as combination of oxygen and hydrogen. Toxic chemicals require a label with a highly visible sign. Also, use only containers specially made for this purpose. Do not use universal containers, containers for food and such. It is not worth the risk.
