Handling of Explosive Materials

Must be stored, transported, handled and used in the
manner recommended by the manufacturer.
Explosive materials and accessories must not be
abandoned.
Smoking is prohibited within minimum 15 m (50 ft) of
where explosives are stored.
Open flame ignition sources must not be permitted within
15 m (50 ft) of where explosives are stored.
All empty explosives containers must be disposed of by
burning.

Next...
Containers of explosive residue, must be handled with care to
prevent undue impact or exposure to excessive heat or
flame.
Dont use sparking metal tools to open kegs of explosives.
Dont place explosives where they may be exposed to flame,
excessive heat, sparks of impact.
Dont carry explosives in the pockets of your clothing on
other person.
DONT handle, use or be near explosives during the approach
or progress of any electrical storm.
DONT use explosives equipment that are obviously
deteriorated or damaged.

Storage of Explosive Chemical

The location of storage areas should be spaced a minimum
of 60 [meters].
Do store explosives in accordance with laws and regulations.
have good air circulation and free from moisture and keep it
locked even if not used.
should not be carried out near the building in which there is
oil, grease, gasoline, residual material can burn, open fire or
flame
should be free of dry grass, garbage, or flammable materials.

Personal Protective Equipment

Safety glasses

Heavy leather gloves

Full-length shields

Laboratory Coats

Waste Disposal of Explosive Materials

Disposal of explosives means their destruction, or rendering them
permanently explosively inert, , or their safe and legal transfer to a
competent person.
There are five main methods for the safe disposal or destruction of
explosives:
Use activated
carbon

Burning
Dissolving by
a solvent
Photolysis

Chemical
destruction

Explosive Effects
The effects of explosive materials can be divided
into four groups, there are:

Primary
Secondary
Tertiary
Quaternary

First Aid For Explosion

First aid treatment for 2nd and 3rd degree burns :
Remove the victim from the fire, explosion, or heat source.
Remove any burning material from the victims body and/or the
affected area.
Call 911 or activate the emergency response system in your
area.
Once the victim is safely secured from additional harm, treat
the person for shock by keeping him or her warm.Try to wrap
the injured areas in a clean sheet if possible.
DO NOT use ice or cold water to treat the burn for the victim.

Next ...
Treatment of minor burns (1st or 2nd degree in a small area of
the body):
Gently clean and cool the wound with lukewarm water.
Do NOT use butter or oil to treat the burn.
Remove all rings, bracelets, and articles that may cause
further issues as swelling occurs.
Apply a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help
treat the burn.
If the burn appears to be more severe than initially thought
and you suspect 2nd or 3rd degree burn status, medical
advice should be sought.

Emergency Responses To Explosive

Materials
response steps upon discovery and determination of an
unstable waste:

If the suspected container is too dangerous to move,

leave participant vehicle where it is and evacuate all
occupants.
Evacuate the immediate area and provide a safety
radius of 300 feet away from the unstable waste.
Inform all nearby persons of the dangerous situation
and the waste location.

Next ....
Stable waste management
If waste is stable enough to minimally handle, contain and
segregate the items.
Waste that is new and sealed and in a relatively new
container may suggest the item is less dangerous.
Some wastes may be wetted to minimize fire or explosive
risks.
Do not store wastes in the sun or in a hot area, inside a
vehicle, or at any location where it may be disturbed.
