1. Introduction

The secondary octanol is a common chemical production raw material, widely used in paints, coatings, printing inks and other fields. However, due to its flammable and toxic characteristics, sec-octanol has certain safety risks during storage and transportation. In order to ensure the safety of people's lives and the safety of the company's property, it is important to develop a safe storage and transportation specification for sec-octanol.

2. the dangerous characteristics of secondary octanol

1. Flammability: secondary octanol has a low flash point and is easy to cause combustion in case of open flame or high temperature.
2. Toxicity: Secondary octanol has certain toxicity to human body. Prolonged exposure or inhalation of its vapor may lead to poisoning.

3. storage specification

1. The storage place should choose a dry, ventilated and cool place, away from open flame and heat source.
2. Storage containers shall be well sealed to prevent leakage. Regularly check whether the container and valve are in good condition.
3. The storage area shall be equipped with corresponding fire fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment.
4. Storage personnel should be professionally trained to understand the hazardous characteristics and safe operating procedures of secondary octanol.

4. transport specification

1. transport vehicles should meet the relevant standards, with fire, explosion, anti-static and other safety facilities.
2. During transportation, it should be stable to avoid violent vibration, collision and friction.
3. Transport personnel shall be professionally trained to understand the hazardous characteristics of sec-octanol and emergency treatment measures.
4. Relevant laws and regulations shall be observed during transportation to ensure safe transportation.

5. emergency treatment measures

1. In case of leakage, the leakage source should be cut off immediately, mixed with sand, dry lime or soda ash and recycled to the waste treatment site.
2. In case of fire, immediately cut off the fire source and use foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide and other fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire. At the same time, cool the container with water to prevent explosion.
3. In case of discomfort after exposure to or inhalation of sec-octanol vapor, the patient shall be immediately moved to a well-ventilated place, contaminated clothing shall be removed, the skin shall be rinsed with soapy water and clean water, and medical attention shall be sought in time.

6. training and education

1. store and transport of octanol staff on a regular basis safety training to improve their safety awareness and operational skills.
2. The training content includes the hazardous characteristics of sec-octanol, safe operation procedures, emergency treatment measures, etc.
3. Improve the staff's ability to deal with emergencies through practical exercises.

7. supervision and inspection

1. Establish a perfect supervision and inspection mechanism, and regularly inspect the places where secondary octanol is stored and transported to ensure the effective implementation of various safety measures.
2. Rectify the problems found in the inspection in time to eliminate potential safety hazards.

8. conclusion

as a common chemical production raw material, its safe storage and transportation is very important. Through the formulation of strict storage and transportation standards, strengthening the training and education of staff, and establishing a perfect supervision and inspection mechanism, we can ensure the safety and control of the storage and transportation process of secondary octanol, and ensure the safety of personnel and the safety of enterprise property.
