Emergency treatment measures after sodium metabisulfite leakage
Once sodium metabisulfite leaks, immediately isolate the leaked contaminated area and restrict access. It is recommended that emergency personnel wear dust masks (full face masks) and anti-virus clothing. Avoid dust, sweep up carefully, transfer to a safe place in a bag. If there is a large amount of leakage, cover with plastic cloth or canvas. Collect and recycle or transport to waste disposal site for disposal.
Engineering control: The production process is closed and ventilation is strengthened.
Respiratory system protection: When the dust concentration in the air exceeds the standard, self-priming filter dust masks must be worn. An air respirator should be worn during emergency rescue or evacuation.
Eye protection: Wear chemical safety glasses.
Body protection: Wear work clothes with anti-poison penetration.
Hand protection: wear rubber gloves.
Other protection: change work clothes in time. Maintain good hygiene habits.
Disposal methods: Refer to relevant national and local regulations before disposal. After neutralization, use the safe burying method to dispose.
