Emergency Leakage Handling

Quickly evacuate the personnel from the leak contaminated area to the safe area, isolate them and strictly restrict access. Cut off the fire. It is suggested that emergency personnel wear self-supporting positive pressure respirators and anti-virus clothing. Cut off the source of leakage as far as possible. If it is liquid, it should be prevented from flowing into the restricted space such as sewer, drainage ditch and so on.

Small leakage: mix with sand, dry lime or soda ash. It can also be washed with a large amount of water and diluted into the wastewater system.

Massive leakage: building embankments or digging pits for shelter. Cover with foam to reduce steam damage. Pumps are transferred to tank trucks or special collectors for recycling or transporting to waste disposal sites for disposal. If solid, mix with sand, dry lime or soda ash. If a large number of leaks occur, they can be collected and recycled or transported to waste disposal sites for disposal.

What are the properties of glyoxal?

1. Storage and transportation characteristics

Commodities are usually diluted and stored. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Storage temperature should not exceed 30 C. Packaging should be sealed and not exposed to air. It should be stored separately from oxidants, alkalis and edible chemicals. Mixed storage should not be avoided. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities are adopted. It is forbidden to use mechanical equipment and tools prone to sparks. The storage area shall be equipped with emergency leak handling equipment and suitable storage materials.

2. Hazardous characteristics

It has strong reducibility. Combustion and explosion can be caused by high heat, open fire, oxidant, fuming sulfuric acid and chlorosulfonic acid. Contact with water can cause drastic polymerization and self-agglomeration during storage and use.
