Emergency Disposal of Diethyl Carbonate

Emergency disposal of diethyl carbonate, evacuation of personnel from leaking contaminated areas to safety areas, isolation and strict restrictions on access. Cut off the fire source. It is suggested that emergency personnel wear self-supporting positive pressure respirators and fire protection clothing. Cut off the source of leakage as far as possible. Prevent access to restricted spaces such as sewers and drainage ditches. Small leakage: absorbed with other inert materials. It can also be washed with emulsion made of non combustible dispersant and diluted with lotion to put into the waste water system. Massive leakage: building embankments or digging pits for shelter. Cover with foam to reduce steam damage. Transfer to tank truck or special collector with explosion-proof pump, recycle or transport to waste disposal site for disposal.
