Description:

The Chemical Reactivity Hazards CD is a self-paced teachingtool intended to teach people how to recognize and manage reactivechemical hazards. It provides an introduction to the topic and manyonline links to additional resources. The CD has three mainobjectives: Introduce reactive chemical hazard recognition,including hazards that can be present in facilities which do not"intentionally" practice chemistry; Provide an overview of toolsfor identifying reactive chemical hazards; and Introduce chemicalreactivity hazard management tools and techniques. The CD contains approximately 100 instructional screens withextensive links, graphics, videos, and supplemental slides. It canbe used either as a self-paced tutorial or as an aid in lecturepresentations. The CD shows how uncontrolled chemical reactions inindustry can lead to serious harm and introduces key concepts foravoiding unintended reactions. The five main sections cover:three major incidents that show the potential consequences ofuncontrolled reactionshow chemical reactions get out of control, includingconsideration of reaction path, heat generation and removal; andthe appropriate people, property, and environmental responsesdata and lab testing resources used to identify reactivityhazardsfour approaches for making a facility inherently safer withrespect to chemical reactivity hazards, andstrategies for designing facilities both to prevent and tomitigate uncontrolled chemical reactions.The module concludes with a ten-question information quiz. Anextensive glossary and bibliography are directly accessible fromany page within the product.
