What should be the Emergency Treatment in case of Ammonium Metatungstate Leakage?

Emergency treatment in case of ammonium metatungstate leakage should follow the following steps and measures to ensure the safety of personnel and prevent environmental pollution:

 

Emergency assessment and confirmation

Immediately determine the type and nature of ammonium metatungstate leaked, the extent of leakage and the scope of possible hazards.

Evaluate the safety of the site to ensure the safety of yourself and others.

 

Activate the alarm system

Pull the alarm for chemical leakage as soon as possible to notify the site personnel and surrounding people that an emergency has occurred.

Also call the police immediately to notify the relevant authorities (e.g. fire department, environmental protection department, etc.) to come to your aid.

 

Evacuate people

After confirming the risk of a spill, take prompt action to safely evacuate site personnel and surrounding people to a safe area away from the source of the spill. Ensure evacuation routes are clear and avoid using elevators.

 

Isolate the source of the leak

Isolate the source of the leak as far as possible to prevent further spread of the leak. If it can be done safely, attempt to shut down the leaking container or disconnect the leaking pipe.

 

Use personal protective equipment (PPE)

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as chemical protective clothing, goggles, gloves, face masks, etc. to prevent exposure to hazardous substances.

 

Contain the leak

Attempt to control leaks with appropriate methods, such as plugging container ruptures with a plugging agent, absorbing leaks with sand or dampening material, etc. Certain chemical hazards may not be washable with water as it may result in splashing of the hazardous substance or increased reaction.

 

Preventing Spreading

If possible, set up cofferdams or barriers to prevent the spill from spreading to a larger area.

Pay special attention to the possibility of the spill entering waters such as sewers, rivers or lakes and take appropriate measures to stop it.

 

Cleanup and Disposal

Thoroughly clean up the spill area while ensuring safety.

Appropriate tools and equipment should be used during cleanup to avoid direct contact with the leaked material.

Waste after cleanup should be properly disposed of in accordance with relevant regulations to prevent secondary pollution of the environment.

 

Accident Investigation

After completing the emergency treatment, an accident investigation should be carried out to find out the cause of the leakage and the problems.

Record the accident treatment process and results for subsequent analysis and improvement.

 

Follow-up Measures

Based on the results of the accident investigation, take appropriate measures to prevent the recurrence of similar accidents.

Inspect and maintain storage facilities to ensure they are in good working condition.

 

Emergency treatment in case of ammonium metatungstate leakage needs to be carried out in a rapid and orderly manner to ensure personnel safety and prevent environmental pollution. During the handling process, relevant safety regulations and operating procedures should be strictly observed and appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn. At the same time, it is important to focus on the investigation and recording of accidents for subsequent analysis and improvement.
