HANDLING OF CHEMICALS. Preparation of solution of chemicals like Lime, Alum, FeSO4, TSP, Bleaching powder & Poly Aluminum Chloride and any other chemical etc. as per Plant requirement. Operation of valves, cleaning of filters, collecting samples, shifting of chemicals etc. as per Plant requirement. Approximate quantity of chemicals handled per day will be from 0.50 to 3.0 MT approx. The quantity of chemicals may vary from time to time and as per Plant requirement. During rainy season it may increase to 3 ~ 4 MT per day. Monthly payment will be released as per actual quantity of chemicals dozed in the Plant. The job of dissolving the chemicals is intermittent. However, it may be carried out in three shifts, as and when required.
HANDLING OF CHEMICALS. (a) Contractor shall give Company written notice at least seven (7) Days prior to the delivery or removal from the Site of any substance which is toxic or hazardous to human health or potentially harmful to the environment. Contractor shall provide copies of “Safety Data Sheets” (“SDS”) to Company with its written notice.
HANDLING OF CHEMICALS. Protection of laboratory employees from exposures to hazardous chemicals depends on the handling of these chemicals in laboratories. Before using any chemical, laboratory employees should be familiar with the characteristics associated with that particular chemical and this reference source is a material safety data sheet (MSDS). The MSDS is a written document that contains information on the health effects of exposure to chemicals. It provides information on the chemical and physical hazard as well as information about safety, handling and storage (Xxxxxxxxx et al. 1996). The MSDSs are good sources of information for chemicals, and should be kept and readily available in laboratories to be used before handling any hazardous chemicals (MSDS: xxxxxxxxxxxx.xx, 29CFR 1910.1200, 1450) Laboratories should be appropriately equipped for the handling of hazardous chemicals, in that hazardous chemicals should only be handled in chemical fume hoods (Xxxxxxxx et al 1971). In addition laboratory employees should also be equipped with the correct type of personnel protective equipment (PPE) or whenever practical, elimination or substitution of the hazardous chemicals by one with similar technical properties should be employed in order to reduce the risk (Xxxx Xxxxxxx et al 1998). Additionally it is important that laboratory personnel avoid or minimize skin contact and inhalation of solvent vapors. After using solvents, employees should wash gloves prior to removal, especially for dichloromethane, and wash hands again prior to eating or drinking (OSHA’s Sanitation Standard-29CFR1910.141). However, employees should not eat or drink in the laboratory because chemical and laboratory safety should be an inherent value for every laboratory employee (29CFR 1910.1450)
