Transfer from large containers, Science

Assignment Help:

Transfer from Large Containers : As with all dangerous operations, it will pay you to think what the worst possible accident may be that could result from your actions and what would ' you do in this event. Thus when you decant from a large container you must expect:

(a) Drips and spillage - Is there a fire hazard? If so, what extinguishers are available? Is there a risk of corrosion? What is the receptacle standing on, and is it stable? Are there neutralising agents? What mopping up facilities are there? Is there a sand bucket? etc.

(b) Splashes and fumes - Similar points to (a) must be considered by you and you must also ask: Should this operation be conducted in a ventilated area? Do I need protective clothing? Is there someone nearby to give first-aid if there is a bad accident? etc. If a non-conducting fluid is being decanted from a glass or plastic container, consideration must be given to earthing containers and funnels. Sufficient static electricity could be built up to spark off a fire or explosion.
