What can be done to control hazardous conditions?
Engineering methods to control hazardous conditions are preferred. Methods include mechanical ventilation (dilution and local exhaust), process or personnel enclosure, control of process conditions, and process modification (e.g. substitution of a less hazardous material). Because of the high potential hazard associated with this substance, stringent control measures such as enclosure (closed handling system) or isolation may be necessary. Use a corrosion-resistant local exhaust ventilation system separate from other exhaust ventilation systems. Cleaning of contaminated exhaust air before release to the outdoors may be necessary. Supply sufficient replacement air to make up for air removed by exhaust systems.
