  7. Use * Read the container labels and consult the MSDS for the chemical.   Learn the toxic properties, flash point temperatures, permissible limits of exposure, acute effects and chronic effects. * Personal protection *  Control measures including isolation, ventilation, monitoring or special equipment ..

  9. Waste disposal

  10. SOP for the disposal of non-halogenated solvent waste generated in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Biology:  1. Collect a 10L non-halogenated solvent waste container from Chemistry stores.  2. This container will have a numbered tag and a large red diamond with flame (see photograph below).  3. Ensure the container tag is logged in by a Stores officer.  4. Use the waste container to collect non-halogenated solvent waste.  5. Fill the waste container to 90% capacity.  6. Bring the waste container to stores and place it on the appropriate pallet, lining it up as instructed on the pallet.  All waste containers returned to Chemistry Stores must have the correct label and tag, containers without appropriate labels and tags will not be accepted. white diamond with skull and crossbones

  11. SOP for the disposal of aqueous extraction from organic synthesis generated in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Biology:  1.Contact the School Safety advisor to ensure the components of the aqueous extractions are compatible with the waste stream.  2. Collect a 10L non-regulated aqueous waste container from stores.  3. This container will have a numbered tag and will be labelled “NON REGULATED MATERIAL – AQUEOUS WASTE” (see photograph below).  4. Ensure the container tag is logged in by a Stores officer.  5. Use the waste container to collect aqueous extractions.  6. Fill the waste container to 90% capacity.  7. Ensure the contents are pH neutral.  8. Bring the waste container to stores and place it on the appropriate pallet, lining it up as instructed on the pallet.

  12. SOP for the disposal of chemically contaminated glass and sharps generated in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Biology:  1. Collect a chemically contaminated glass and sharps bin from Chemistry Stores.  2. Carefully place all chemically contaminated glass and sharps for disposal into this bin.  3. When the bin is ¾ full; close and seal the bin.  4. Return the bin to Chemistry Stores and place on the designated pallet.

  13. SOP for the disposal of chemically contaminated laboratory waste 1. Place the waste in the chemically contaminated laboratory waste bin (see photograph below).  2. When the bin is 2/3 full; close and seal the bin.  3. Bring the bin to Chemistry Stores and carefully place beside the chemical waste drums.
