Diesel fuel is a petroleum product, with the usual hazards associated with such products.
Diesel exhaust is a combination of a large number of partially burned hydrocarbons. The exhaust contains irritating components, smelly components, and also components thathave been shown to cause cancer.
Hazardous material ceases to be hazardous when it is destroyed, sufficiently diluted in nonhazardous material, it is chemically changed into a nonhazardous material or incorporated into an object that immobilizes it and renders it unable to be hazardous.
which hazardous material can enter the body
a. a hazardous material is exposed to fire.
Polystyrene is not a hazardous material (dangerous good) in transportation. However, in circumstances where a fire might be a problem, polystyrene, which can readily and rapidly burn, can be a very hazardous material.
When receiving a shipment of hazardous materials, the first thing to do is to determine the nature of the hazardous material and then inspect it to ensure there are no leaks.
a hazardous material
yes, it is
HMMP
chlorine is 124, diesel fuel is 128, acetone is 127, and nitrogen is 121
Hazardous materials are measured by weight or volume, depending on which material is being measured.
There are weight limits in some situations, transportation, for instance, and not in others.
The actions to be taken when a hazardous material is identified are different depending on what the situaiton is. The actions for a spill, for example are very different that for identificaiton of a hazardous material in a fire.
