Waste Acids and Bases Bottle it! Shipping/Storage Bottle must be triple rinsed Rinsate (Solution remaining after rinsing) may go down the drain Deface the bottle Discard (uncapped) into glass trash Highly Hazardous Waste Bottle it! Bottle contents are hazardous- treat as hazardous solid waste and call for pick up Check for the “highly hazardous” list to see what qualifies Unique Safety Hazards Assembly Lab X-ray Exposure *Radiation certification required to operate x-ray equipment Burns (Hot/Cold) Limb Sever/Eye Injury Crush/Pinch Fein Focus X-ray Inspection Machines Reflow Oven, Thermal Chambers, Hot Press, Placement Systems, Ultrasonic Bonder WaterJet, Dage Tester Placement Tool, Hot Press, Reflow Oven, Placement Systems Unique Safety Hazards Substrate Lab Laser and Ultraviolet Light (Eye Safety) Chemical and Eye Safety Burns Cuts Laser Drill, Tamarack Exposure Tool Technics, Plating Lines, Fume Hoods, Spin Coaters Ovens, Hot Plates, Vacuum Laminator Broken Glassware Using Gas Cylinders Gas cylinders must be restrained with a chain or strap between the “waist” and “shoulder” of the cylinder. Remove regulators and cap cylinders before moving. Cap unused cylinders Never use grease or Teflon tape on cylinder fittings The cylinder (not the cap) must be labeled as to contents. Do not rely on cylinder color to identify the contents. Color identi vary between manufacturers. Fittings vary between gas types: toxic, corrosive, inert, flammable, oxidizing. Never force a fitting. If it has to be forced, it is probably the wrong type. Always use non-sparking tools around flammables and oxidizers. Using Gas Cylinders Mishandled cylinders may rupture violently, release their hazardous contents or become dangerous projectiles. If a neck of a pressurized cylinder should be accidentally broken off, the energy released would be sufficient to propel the cylinder to over 3/4 of a mile in height. A standard 250
