Safety hazards:

Environmental hazards:

of the skin which can lead to dermatitis. Under conditions of poor personal hygiene, excessive exposure rnay lead to irritation, oil acne and folliculitis and development of warty growths which may subsequently become malignant. Prolonged exposure to vapour concentrations may affect the central nervous system. Hydrogen sulphide may accumulate in the head space of containers. Hydrogen sulphide is very toxic by inhalation and is an asphyxiant.

Not classified as flammable, but will burn. Therefore it should be treated as a potentially flammable liquid. Flammable vapours may be present even at temperatures below the flash point.

Harmful to aquatic organisms. May cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Not readily biodegradable. Has the potential to bioaccumulate. Persists under anaerobic conditions.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Symptoms and effects:

Protection of first aiders:

First Aid - Inhalation:

First Aid - Skin:

First Aid - Eye:

Exposure to hydrogen sulphide at concentrations above the recommended occupational exposure standard rnay cause headache, dizziness, irritation of the eyes, upper respiratory tract, mouth and digestive tract, convulsions, respiratory paralysis, unconsciousness and even death. Unconsciousness as a result of exposure to hydrogen sulphide may occur extremely rapidly and without other symptoms. Contact with hot product may cause skin burns, including to the underlying skin. Owing to its high viscosity, this product does not normally constitute an ingestion hazard. Ingestion will only occur in grossly abnormal circumstances. If ingested can lead to irritation of the mouth, irritation of the throat, irritation of the digestive tract, vomiting. Aspiration into the lungs may occur directly or following ingestion. This can cause chemical pneumonitis which may be fatal. Prolonged exposure to vapourlmist concentrations above the recommended occupational exposure standard may cause headache, dizziness, nausea, asphyxiation, unconsciousness and even death.

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus if presence of hydrogen sulphide is suspected.

Remove to fresh air. If breathing but unconscious, place in the recovery position. If breathing has stopped, apply artificial respiration. If heartbeat absent give external cardiac compression. Monitor breathing and pulse. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

If high pressure injection injuries occur, obtain medical attention immediately. In the case of burns, wash skin thoroughly with water using soap if available. Do not use kerosine, gasoline or solvents. Contaminated clothing must be removed as soon as possible. It must be laundered before reuse. If persistent irritation occurs, obtain medical attention.

Flush eye with water. If persistent irritation occurs or if there is any suspicion of damage from hot product, obtain medical

First Aid - Ingestion:

Advice to physicians:

attention immediately.

DO NOT DELAY. Do not induce vomiting. Protect t h e airway if vomiting begins. Give nothing by mouth. If breathing but unconscious, place in the recovery position. If breathing has stopped, apply artificial respiration. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

Treat symptomatically. High-pressure injection injuries require early surgical intervention and possible steroid therapy to minimise tissue damage and loss of nerve function. X-ray examination is required to assess the extent of the injury. Local anaesthetics or hot soaks should not be used wi th such injuries since they can contribute t o local swelling, vasospasm and ischaemia. Prompt surgical decompression, debridement and evacuation of foreign bodies should be carried out under general anaesthetic. Because injected material may be deposited a t some distance from the point of injection, wide exploration is essential. Prolonged exposure to high concentrations of hydrogen sulphide may lead to a delayed chemical pneumonitis (pulmonary oedema). In cases of excessive inhalation, observe in hospital for 48 hours for signs of pulmonary oedema. Diagnosis of ingestion of this product is by the characteristic odour on the victim's breath and from the history of events. In cases of ingestion, consider gastric lavage. Gastric lavage must only be undertaken after cuffed endotracheal intubation in view of the risk of aspiration. In cases of chemical pneumonitis, antibiotic and corticosteroid therapy should be considered.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Specific hazards: Hazardous combustion products may include: carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, oxides of sulphur, unburnt hydrocarbons.. Flammable vapours may be present even a t temperatures below the flash point.

Foam, water spray or fog. Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, sand or earth may be used for small fires only.

Water in a jet. Use of Halon extinguishers should be avoided

Extinguishing media:

Unsuitable extinguishing media: for environmental reasons.

Other information: Keep adjacent drums and tanks cool by spraying wi th water.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions: Remove all possible sources of ignition in the surrounding area and evacuate all personnel. Ventilate contaminated area thoroughly. Do not breathe: vapour, mists. Avoid contact with: skin, eyes and clothing.. Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.

Wear: impervious overalls, PVC or nitrile rubber gloves, safety shoes or boots - chemical resistant, monogoggles.

Prevent from entering into drains, ditches or rivers. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination.

Absorb or contain liquid wi th sand, earth or spill control

Storage temperature:

Product transfer:

Tank cleaning:

Although not classified as flammable, this product should be handled as a potentially flammable liquid. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Only use in well-ventilated areas. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Earth or bond all equipment.

HFO 50oC minimum, MFO 30T minimum, LFO IO= minimum

Locate tanks away from heat and other sources of ignition. Ensure heating coils are always covered with product (minimum 15 cm). Do not store in unsuitable, unlabelled or incorrectly labelled containers. Keep container tightly closed in a dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat or ignition. Prevent ingress of water. Drums should be correctly stacked to a maximum of 3 high. Keep in a bunded area.

HFO 40T minimum, MFO 2 5 T minimum, LFO 10% minimum

Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Ensure electrical continuity by bonding all equipment. Wait 10 minutes after tank filling before opening hatches or manholes.

Cleaning, inspection and maintenance of storage tanks is a specialist operation which requires the implementation of strict procedures and precautions. These include issuing of work permits, gas-freeing of tanks, using a manned harness and lifelines and wearing air-supplied breathing apparatus. Prior to entry and whilst cleaning is underway, the atmosphere within the tank must be monitored using an oxygen meter andlor explosimeter. In addition, appropriate electrochemical sensors or colorimetric tubes must be used to check for the presence of hydrogen sulphide.

Recommended materials: For containers, use: mild steel, stainless steel. For seals and gaskets, use: compressed asbestos fibre, PTFE, Viton A , Viton B

Examples of materials to avoid are: cadmium, copper, copper alloys (ferrous and non-ferrous), lead, zinc, zinc alloys. Synthetic materials such as plastics and fibreglass may also be unsuitable, depending on the material specification and intended use. Materials for packages, containers (including containers for the retention or despatch of samples) and container linings must not adversely affect the quality of the product. They must be impermeable and must not be weakened or otherwise affected by the product. Examples of materials to avoid are: natural rubber, thermoplastics.
