Section VIII: Control Measures
Small Spill: Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent, or
other inert absorbent. Place in suitable labeled container
for disposal.
Large Spill: Ventilate contaminated area. Eliminate all
ignition sources, (flares, flames including pilot lights,
electrical sparks). Persons not wearing protective
equipment should be excluded from area of spill until
clean up has been completed. Stop spill at source.
Prevent from entering drains, sewers, streams, etc. If
runoff occurs, notify authorities as required. Pump or
vacuum transfer spilled product to clean containers for
recovery. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and
other materials to containers for disposal.
Waste Disposal Method: TRIAGEN may be disposed of as
an industrial waste in a manner acceptable to good waste
management practices and in compliance with applicable
local, state, and federal regulations.
Precautions To Be Taken In Handling & Storing: Material
should be stored and used only in a cool dry, well
ventilated area. All metal pails or drums should be
grounded and/or bonded when material is transferred.
Any use of this product in elevated temperature
processes should be thoroughly evaluated to establish
and maintain safe operating conditions. Sudden release
of hot organic chemical vapors or mists from process
equipment operating at elevated temperature may result
in ignition.
Other Precautions: Keep this and all chemicals out of the
reach of children.
