Wet-washing the contaminated surface or flushing with a hose stream or safety shower
Dry-may be as simple as removing clothing or allowing contaminent to evaporate. Also vacuuming, brushing, scraping or using sticky tape
Physical-methods remove the contaminent from a person without changing the material chemically. examples are absorbtion, adsorbtion, brushing, scraping, dilution, evaporation, isolation and disposal, washing and vacuuming
Chemical-methods are used to make it less harmful by changing it through some kind of chemical process. Ex. using bleach to sanitize tools
True or False
Those conducting Decon. usually wear one classification below?
True
What is Emergency Decon?
Stripped+washed quickly=no regard for evironment
The main priority of spill control?
Confinement
Defensive spill control tactics that confine hazardous materials include?
absorbtion
adsorbtion
blanketing/covering
dam, dike, diversion and retention
vapor supression
Some defensive spill control tactics are aimed at reducing the amount of harm the material causes by diluting the concentration or changing it physical properties
Vapor dispersion
Ventilation
Dispersion
Dilution
Dissolution
Neutralization* considered tech level offensive containment tactic
Foam is measured in terms of its 25% drainage time and it's expansion ratio, describe
the time required for one-fourth of total liquid solution to drain from the foam
Expansion ratio is the volume of finished foam that results from a unit of volume of foam solution
Where will Nonpressure liquid tanks, low pressure chemical tanks and high pressure tanks have the emergency shutoff switch
