product may clog drains and sewers. If necessary, Consult an expert. Local authorities
should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Methods for Containment control the spreading of the spillage. Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible
absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite) and place in
container for disposal according to local / national regulations (see Section 13). Ensure
adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Large spillages may be cautiously
covered with foam, if available, to limit fire risk.
Methods for cleaning up Let hot product cool down naturally. Collect free product with suitable means. Use
mechanical means such as pumps, skimmers and absorbent materials. Pick up and
transfer to properly labeled containers. Cleaning with high pressure washers. or. Wash off
with warm water. Wear respiratory protection.
In case of soil contamination, remove contaminated soil for remediation or disposal, in
accordance with local regulations. Transfer recovered product and other materials to
suitable tanks or containers and store/dispose according to relevant regulations.
In case of spillage in the water:
Product less dense than water. In case of small spillages in closed waters . contain
product with floating barriers or other equipment. Collect spilled product by absorbing with
specific floating absorbents. control the spreading of the spillage.
If possible, large spillages in open waters should be contained with floating barriers or
other mechanical means, collect the product by skimming or other suitable mechanical
means. The use of dispersants should be advised by an expert, and, if required, approved
by local authorities. Collect recovered product and other materials in suitable tanks or
containers for recovery or safe disposal.
Product which is denser than water will sink to the bottom, and usually no intervention will
be feasible. If possible, collect the product and contaminated materials with mechanical
means, and store/dispose of according to relevant regulations. In special situations (to be
assessed on case-by case basis, according to expert judgement and local conditions),
excavations of trenches on the bottom to collect the product, or burying the product with

6.4. Reference to other sections
Other information Recommended measures are based on the most likely spillage scenarios for this material.
However, local conditions (wind, air temperature, wave/current direction and speed) may
significantly influence the choice of appropriate actions. For this reason, local experts
should be consulted when necessary. Local regulations may also prescribe or limit actions
to be taken. Cut off the electric power supply if this operation causes no sparks in the area
containing vapors from the product.
Concentration of H2S in tank headspaces may reach hazardous values, especially in case
of prolonged storage. This situation is especially relevant for those operations which
involve direct exposure to the vapours in the tank. Spillages of limited amounts of products,
especially in the open air when vapours will be usually quickly dispersed, are dynamic
situations, which presumably do not entail exposure to dangerous concentrations:
As H2S has a density greater than ambient air, a possible exception may regard the
build-up of dangerous concentrations in specific spots, like trenches, depressions or
confined spaces. In all these circumstances, however, the correct actions should be
assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Advice on safe handling Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
Hydrogen sulphide can accumulate in the head space of storage tanks containing this
product and can reach potentially hazardous concentrations. Wear personal protective
equipment. Refer to Section 8.
Take precautionary measures against static electricity.
The inspection, cleaning and maintenance of storage containers require the application of
strict procedures and must be entrusted to qualified personnel (internal or external).

of the product as low as possible to minimise the release of fumes. Never check the tank
level by using a naked flame.
Do not smoke. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Ensure adequate ventilation. Vapors may
form explosive mixtures with air.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Wear suitable protective clothing.
Do not use compressed air for filling, discharging, or handling operations.
Technical measures Prevent the formation of vapors, mists and aerosols. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Do not use compressed air for filling, discharging, or handling operations.
Design installations to avoid spills and splashes of hot product. Take all necessary
precautions to prevent water from entering the containers, tanks, transfer lines etc...

Guidance is based on assumed operating conditions which may not be applicable to all sites; thus, scaling may be necessary to
define appropriate site-specific risk management measures. Required removal efficiency for wastewater can be achieved using
onsite/offsite technologies, either alone or in combination. Required removal efficiency for air can be achieved using on-site
technologies, either alone or in combination. Further details on scaling and control technologies are provided in SpERC factsheet

Health
Predicted exposures are not expected to exceed the DN(M)EL when the Risk Management Measures/Operational Conditions
outlined in Section 2 are implemented. Where other Risk Management Measures/Operational Conditions are adopted, then users
should ensure that risks are managed to at least equivalent levels. Available hazard data do not enable the derivation of a DNEL
for carcinogenic effects. Available hazard data do not support the need for a DNEL to be established for other health effects. Risk
Management Measures are based on qualitative risk characterisation.
