[Chemical Knowledge]:Specification for storage and transport of tetrachloroethylene

Safety of storage and transport specifications

1. Introduction

Tetrachloroethylene is a compound widely used in the field of chemical production raw materials, due to its unique physical and chemical properties, so that it plays an important role in many industrial processes. However, tetrachloroethylene is also a hazardous substance, which may cause harm to human health and the environment if not stored and transported correctly. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the safety storage and transportation regulations of tetrachloroethylene to protect human health and environmental safety.

2. the properties and hazards of tetrachloroethylene

tetrachloroethylene is a colorless and transparent liquid with a pungent odor. It is a water-insoluble organic solvent with high volatility and toxicity. Tetrachloroethylene mainly enters the human body through inhalation, ingestion and skin contact, which can cause toxic liver disease, kidney damage, central nervous system damage and other diseases. In addition, tetrachloroethylene also causes harm to the environment and ecosystems, such as toxic effects on aquatic organisms and pollution of soil and groundwater.

3. the safety storage specification of tetrachloroethylene

In order to ensure the safety storage of tetrachloroethylene, it is necessary to comply with the following specifications:

1. The storage place should be dry, ventilated, cool, and far away from open flames, heat sources and other dangerous sources;
2. The storage container should comply with relevant standards and have sufficient strength and sealing performance to prevent leakage and volatilization;
3. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment and fire-fighting facilities to ensure timely handling of accidents;
4. Regular inspection and maintenance of the storage place should be carried out to ensure the normal operation of the storage facilities.

4. tetrachloroethylene safety transport specification

In order to ensure the safety of tetrachloroethylene transport, need to comply with the following specifications:

1. Transport vehicles should meet the relevant standards, with sufficient strength and sealing performance, to prevent leakage and volatilization;
2. During transport should maintain smooth driving, avoid violent vibration and collision;
3. Transport personnel should be professionally trained to understand the nature and hazards of tetrachloroethylene, master the emergency treatment measures;
comply with relevant laws, regulations and standards during transportation to ensure transportation safety.
Emergency treatment measures for leakage of
5. tetrachloroethylene

During the storage and transportation of tetrachloroethylene, once a leakage accident occurs, the following emergency treatment measures should be taken:

1. Immediately cut off the leakage source to prevent the leakage from spreading;
2. Use special equipment or absorbing materials to collect and treat the leakage;
3. Ventilate and clean the leakage area to ensure environmental safety;
4. If any person comes into contact with the leak, seek medical treatment immediately.

6. conclusion

tetrachloroethylene as an important raw material for chemical production, its safe storage and transportation is very important. In order to protect human health and environmental safety, relevant norms and standards must be observed, and effective measures must be taken to ensure the safety of storage and transportation of tetrachloroethylene. At the same time, training and publicity should be strengthened to raise the awareness of relevant personnel on the nature and hazards of tetrachloroethylene to ensure that accidents can be dealt with and responded to in a timely manner.
