4 Evacuation Plan Evacuation Plan There are two types of evacuation: 1. General: All building occupants must evacuate. The General Evacuation Routes for the room associated with this lab are marked on the Evacuation Plan map. Laboratory occupants should gather outside at Hodges Wood Products Lab and await further instruction. Occupants will be advised by Public Safety when it is safe to return. Turn off all power and gas lines before evacuating if it can be done safely. 2. Local: Occupants of the lab must evacuate. Local evacuations do not require exit from the building. Occupants of the lab should gather outside the lab entrance and await further direction. Avoid hindering any emergency operations in progress. In any evacuation, do not leave the designated meeting area. Your absence will be interpreted that you are still in the danger area and one or more persons may risk their lives looking for you. WHEN TO EVACUATE: 1. Fire of any nature. Activate pull station and proceed with general evacuation of the building. Phone Public Safety (ext ) from another building immediately. 2. Chemical spill. Since generally small quantities of chemicals are handled in the lab, spills are likely to be relatively small in volume, and may not require evacuation. Spills of fuming acids, such as concentrated hydrochloric acid, may require local evacuation, with re-entry when spill is properly contained and cleaned up. 3. Gas leak from cylinders or gas line. Scale of evacuation will depend on seriousness of leak and nature of gas. Minor gas leaks from cylinders may not require evacuation, but rather simply removal of the cylinder outdoors for pickup by Central Stores (ext ). Cylinder rupture or valve breakage, or gas line rupture dictate evacuation. Open windows if possible. If the gas is reactive, corrosive, or highly flammable, general evacuation should proceed. Less reactive gases may dictate local evacuation. In the event of any gas leak, notify Barbara White or Dr. Orlando Rojas. 4. Power interruption: If fume hood blowers are not functioning as a result of a power interruption, open windows, make sure switches are left ON, and immediately proceed with local evacuation. Close lab entrance door. Do not enter room after power is restored; wait until notified by Public Safety that it is safe to return.
5 GUIDELINES FOR USE OF COMPRESSED GASES Always use the minimum-sized compressed gas cylinder adequate to perform an experiment. When ordering hazardous gases consider factors such as handling and storage, eye and skin absorption, appropriate gas regulators, chemical properties, and disposal costs. Gas cylinders are among the most costly items to dispose. Trv to get written assurance that the manufacturer or distributor will accent the gas cylinder when the gas is completely used up. Avoid accumulating gas cylinders. They pose and increasing danger as they age. The publications of the Compressed Gas Association and of major suppliers should be consulted before using compressed gases. The guidelines for use of compressed gases are as follows: 1. Handle cylinders of compressed gases as high-energy source and, therefore, as potential explosives. 2. When storing or moving a cylinder, the protective cap must be securely in place to protect the valve system. 3. When moving large cylinders, strap them to a properly designed, wheeled cart to ensure stability. The protective cap must be in place. Never move a cylinder with a regulator attached! 4. Cylinders of all sizes must be restrained by straps, chains, or a suitable stand to prevent them from falling. 5. Do not expose cylinders to temperatures higher than 50 C. Some rupture devices on cylinders will release at around 65 C. Some small cylinders, such as lecture bottles, are not fitted with rupture devices and may explode if exposed to high temperature. 6. Never place cylinders where they may come in contact with an electrical unit. Avoid areas that are damp or subject to a slat spray or other corrosive materials. 7. Never use a cylinder that cannot be identified positively. 8. Never lubricate, modify, force, or tamper with a cylinder valve. 9. Use cylinder of toxic, flammable, or reactive gases only in fume hoods. They should be stored in appropriately ventilated bunkers. 10. Use suitable supports to hold cylinders at all times. 11. Under no condition should high-pressure gases be directed at a person. 4. Stand back from any falling cylinder. One who tries to catch it will be likely to injure himself. 5. Cylinders in storage must be kept upright and interlocked into a compact group. 6. Adequate ventilation of cylinder storage is critical. Ventilation may be provided by natural air flow through doors at floor level and vents at ceiling level or by a continuously running exhaust fan.
6 7. All cylinder stored outside should be placed on a pad to stay out of water. An overhead cover is also necessary to avoid sunlight and direct rain. 8. Do not store cylinders near the edge of a platform where they may be bumped off. Docks used for storage must be equipped with approved safety rails. 9. Transportation of cylinders must be conducted only by trained personnel using approved trucks. Consult Central Stores ( ) for assistance and questions. GAS RELEASE NOTED: The superfund Amendments Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA Title III) states that release of extremely hazardous substances must be reported to EPA. Environmental Health & Safety has the list to guide those using gases. For example, release of ammonia, arsine, chlorine, fluorine etc must be reported to EPA. Seek advice of Environment Health & Safety ( ; Box 8007 NCSU Campus) to establish the proper classification of any compressed gases commercially available. NFPA CODES restrict the number and types of gases that can be used in an area. Consult Environmental Health & Safety ( ) about subject matter. Do not store flammable and oxidizer gases together! CYLINDER INVENTORY: A major and unnecessary money wasting practice involves improper cylinder inventory. Many cylinders are owned by the gas supply companies. Each month a demurrage charge of a few dollars is charged for each cylinder. It is, therefore, a good business practice to return all cylinders that are not in frequent use to avoid this demurrage charge. For common gases like compressed air and nitrogen, the demurrage charge for two or three months is usually more than the cost of the gas. Daily delivery of most common gases can be arranged through Central Stores, so there is no reason to "stock-pile" gases that are used only infrequently. It is also good practice to note on the laboratory inventory the presence of all cylinders. When cylinders are moved from a laboratory to other laboratory, make the appropriate changes on the inventories of the two laboratory involved. This permits easier tracking of cylinders.
7 HAZARDS OF PRESSURIZED SYSTEMS Any equipment which is to be pressurized with steam, liquid or gas has certain hazards associates with it. Examples of pressurized instruments in the research laboratories include ion chromatograph (IC), gas chromatographs (GC), preparative high performance liquid chromatograph (Preparative HPLC), and hydrogen tank in Adam's hydrogenator. Pressure in these systems is produced by passing appropriate compressed gases stored in steel cylinders. Because of the potential for rupture, explosion, and rapid depressurization of such instruments, one needs to take certain precautions. Guidelines 1. All pressure vessels must be tested and stamped with maximum allowable pressure (MAP). The MAP specifies the highest pressure at which the instrument can be operated safely. 2. When connecting pressure vessels together, each vessel should have a MAP equal to or greater than the one preceding it. 3. Every pressure vessel should be equipped with a pressure relief valve which does not allow the MAP to be exceeded. Pressure relief valve should never be modified or tampered with in any way. 4. When working with a pressurized vessel, never open any valve on a line connected with the vessel unless it has been confirmed that the line is securely connected to another vessel or relief device rated properly. Similarly, no mechanical work or modifications should be made to a pressure vessel unless it has been confirmed that the vessel has been depressurized. 5. The same care should be exercised with portable pressure vessels (e.g., oxygen bombs) as is used with pressurized gas cylinders (see page 37). 6. Pressure instruments should be inspected regularly and maintained.
