Wash hands and face after working with this substance.

 

Storage and Transport:

Storage: Store in tightly closed containers in a well-ventilated place at room temperature.

Spills & Disposal

Wear appropriate protective clothing. Inform others to keep at a safe distance. Spread soda ash liberally over the spillage. If local regulations permit, mop up cautiously with plenty of water and run to waste, diluting greatly with running water. Otherwise transfer to container and arrange removal by Disposal Company. Wash sight of spillage thoroughly with water. For large spillages liquids should be contained with sand or earth and both liquids and solids transferred to salvage containers.

Contact your local waste disposal authority for advice.

Substances to be avoided: organic, combustible substances, oxidizable substances, organic solvents, alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, amines, anilines, nitriles, organic nitro compounds, hydrazine and derivatives, acetylidene, metals, metal alloys, metallic oxides, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, ammonia, alkalis, acids, hydrides, halogens, halogen compounds, non-metallic oxides, non-metallic halides, non-metallic hydrogen compounds, non-metals, phosphides, nitrides, lithium silicide, hydrogen peroxide.

Spills & Disposal

Wear appropriate protective clothing. If local regulations permit, mop up with plenty of water and run to waste, diluting greatly with running water. Otherwise transfer to container and arrange removal by Disposal Company. Wash site of spillage thoroughly with detergent and water. For large spillages liquids should be contained with sand or earth and both liquids and solids transferred to salvage containers. Any residues should be treated as for small spillages. Do not allow to enter drinking water supplies , waste water or soil. The dfollowing applies to cyanogen compounds in general: cyanide ions: biological effects: fish: 60h. LC50: 0.08 mg/l;lethal from 0.05 mg/l up; for lower organisms lethal from 0.1 mg/l up. . Chemical residues are generally classified as special waste, and as such are covered by regulations that vary according to location. Contact your local waste disposal authority for advice, or pass to a chemical disposal company. Rinse out empty containers thoroughly before returning for recycling.

Product: There are no uniform Australian Regulations for the disposal of chemicals or residues. Chemical residues generally count as special waste. The disposal of the latter is regulated in Australia through Commonwealth, State, Territory or Local government laws and regulations. We recommend that you contact either the authorities in charge or licensed waste disposal companies that will advise you on how to dispose of special waste. Packaging: Disposal in compliance with official regulations, Handle contaminated packaging in the same way as the substance itself. If not officially specified differently, non-contaminated packaging may be treated like household waste or recycled.

Fire/Explosion Hazard

Non-combustible. Development of hazardous vapours possible in the event of fire.
