1. of safety storage and transportation specification
of m-cresol Introduction

m-p-cresol is a common chemical production raw material, widely used in medicine, pesticides, dyes, plastics and other fields. However, due to its toxicity and flammability, it is necessary to strictly comply with relevant safety regulations during storage and transportation to ensure the safety of personnel and the environment. In this paper, the safe storage and transportation specifications of m-p-cresol are described in detail.

2. the properties and hazards of m-cresol

m-cresol is a colorless or yellowish crystals, with a special smell. It is a toxic, flammable and corrosive substance, which is harmful to human body and environment. Long-term exposure to m-cresol may cause skin irritation, eye damage, respiratory diseases, etc. In addition, m-p-cresol is also easy to cause fire and explosion, causing serious harm to equipment and personnel.

3. m-p-cresol storage specification

1. The storage place should choose a dry, ventilated and cool place to avoid direct sunlight and high temperature.
2. The storage site shall be equipped with fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment.
3. Storage containers should be sealed, corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or glass steel.
4. Storage containers should be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that there is no leakage and damage.
5. Obvious safety signs and warning signs shall be set up in the storage place, and fireworks and open flames are prohibited.

4. m-p-cresol transport specifications

1. Transport vehicles should comply with relevant standards, with explosion-proof, fire-proof, anti-leakage and other functions.
2. Before transportation, check the tightness and safety of the vehicle to ensure that there is no leakage and damage.
3. Keep running smoothly during transportation to avoid severe vibration and collision.
4. During transportation, it should be kept away from open flames and high temperature places, and smoking and open flames are prohibited.
5. The transportation personnel shall be professionally trained to understand the nature and hazards of m-p-cresol and master the emergency treatment measures.

5. m-cresol leakage emergency treatment measures

1. immediately cut off the source of leakage, close the valve or plug the leak.
2. Mix with sand, dry lime or soda ash and recycle to waste disposal site.
3. When there is a large amount of leakage, a dam or a pit shall be constructed to accommodate it, and it shall be transferred to the tank car or special collector by pump.
4. Recycled or transported to the waste treatment site for disposal, neutralized with alkaline absorbent, and then washed with water, and the diluted wastewater is discharged into the wastewater system.

6. conclusion

m-p-cresol as a common chemical production raw material, its safety and storage and transportation regulations are very important to ensure the safety of personnel and the environment. Therefore, in the actual production and transportation process, we must strictly abide by the relevant safety regulations, and take effective measures to ensure the storage and transportation safety of m-cresol. At the same time, personnel training and management should be strengthened, safety awareness should be improved, and correct response measures should be taken quickly in emergency situations to minimize losses and risks.
