[Chemical Knowledge]：Specification for storage and transport of higher alcohols

High-carbon alcohols have important application value in the field of chemical production raw materials, but their safe storage and transportation regulations are very important to ensure the smooth progress of the production process and the safety of employees' lives. This article will discuss in detail the safety storage and transportation specifications of high carbon alcohols.

1. High-carbon alcohol Introduction

High-carbon alcohol refers to alcohol compounds with long carbon chains, which are usually flammable, explosive, and toxic. In the field of chemical production raw materials, high carbon alcohols are widely used in synthetic detergents, plasticizers, lubricating oil additives and other products. However, due to its special physical and chemical properties, high-carbon alcohols have certain safety hazards during storage and transportation, and must strictly comply with relevant regulations.

2. high-carbon alcohol safety storage specification

1. Storage facilities requirements: high-carbon alcohol should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated special warehouse, away from fire, heat. The warehouse floor should be flat, non-slip, and with anti-leakage measures.
2. Storage container requirements: High-carbon alcohol should be stored in a special container, and the container should have good sealing performance and be able to withstand a certain pressure. The container shall be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that it is in good condition.
3. Storage limit requirements: According to the dangerous characteristics of high-carbon alcohols, the storage quantity should be strictly controlled to avoid excessive storage leading to safety hazards.
4. Storage identification requirements: obvious safety identification shall be set up in the warehouse, including the name of high carbon alcohol, hazard characteristics, emergency measures and other information.

3. the safety of high-carbon alcohol transport specification

1. transport vehicle requirements: high-carbon alcohol should be transported by special transport vehicles, which should have corresponding explosion-proof and fire-proof performance. At the same time, the vehicle should be regularly maintained and maintained to ensure safety during transportation.
2. Requirements for transportation personnel: The personnel who transport high-carbon alcohols should undergo professional training and have corresponding safety awareness and operation skills. In the process of transportation, we should be vigilant and take timely measures in case of emergencies.
3. Transport packaging requirements: The transport packaging of high-carbon alcohols should meet relevant standards and have sufficient strength and sealing performance. The packaging should be marked with the name of the high carbon alcohol, hazard characteristics, emergency measures and other information.
4. Transportation route requirements: the route of transportation of high carbon alcohol should try to choose the route with smooth road and smooth traffic, and avoid driving in prosperous urban areas or densely populated areas. At the same time, should try to avoid high temperature period for transportation.

4. high-carbon alcohol leakage emergency treatment specification

1. leakage treatment: when high-carbon alcohol leakage is found, the operation should be stopped immediately, the leakage source should be closed, and special absorption materials should be used to clean up the leakage. Avoid sparks or open flames during cleaning.
2. Personnel protection: personnel handling leakage accidents should wear professional protective equipment, such as protective gloves, goggles, etc., to avoid direct contact with the leakage.
3. Environmental monitoring: After cleaning up the leakage, the surrounding environment should be monitored to ensure that the air quality meets the safety standards before resuming the operation.

5. summary and recommendations

high-carbon alcohols are widely used in the field of chemical production raw materials, but their safe storage and transportation regulations are very important. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the production process and the life safety of employees, enterprises should strictly abide by the relevant norms, strengthen the safety training and education of employees, and improve the safety awareness and operation skills of employees. At the same time, enterprises should establish and improve the emergency plan system and conduct regular drills and training to ensure that they can respond quickly and effectively in the event of an emergency. By strengthening the application of management and technical means, enterprises can minimize the safety risks of high-carbon alcohols during storage and transportation, and ensure the safe and stable operation of production.
