Carbamic acid

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

Emergency measure - Inhalation: After inhalation: Immediately remove to fresh air. Consult a

physician if irritating symptoms develop and persist.

Emergency measure - Eyes: After contact with the eyes: immediately rinse eyes with

running water and seek medical advice.

Emergency measure - Skin: After contact with the skin: Rinse skin immediately with

water, soap and brush. Immediately remove contaminated

clothing. Consult a physician if any symptoms develop.

Emergency measure - Ingestion: After ingestion or accident: If swallowed, seek medical

advice immediately.

Fire-fighting measures

Recommended extinguishing agent: No restrictions for extinguinshing media to be used

e.g.Water, CO2 gas, foam etc.

Product arising from burning: carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides.

Product determined by test: N

Protective equipment: Full protective clothing and self-contained breathing

apparatus must be worn. Fight the fire from a safe distance

or protected location.

Accidental release measures

Emergency measures in case of spillage: After spillage,the substance must not be released into

sewers, drains or wells. It should be taken up by mechanical

means and disposed of. To clean the floor and all objects

contaminated by this material, use water and detergents.

When clearing up spilt material, avoid breathing dust and

skin contact. Before the clear up, dampen solid waste or

preferably use a permitted industrial vacuum cleaner. Label

waste containers adequately. During the clear up and

disposal, wear suitable overalls, rubber gloves and if the

need arises also effective respiratory protection.

Handling and storage

Handling: Open handling without suitable personal protective equipment

must be avoided. Provide exhaust ventilation system in case

of open handling.Personal protection for open handling:

Respiratory protection: Full face respirator or a positive-

pressure supplied-air respirator. Hand protection: neoprene

or nitrile gloves. Tyvek classic protective suit or a full

air-supplied suit. Boot covers.Eye protection.

Storage: Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat,

oxidising agents, strong alkaline and acid materials. Store

container in cool and dry place. Avoid formation of dust.

Packaging of the substance and or preparation: Carbamic acid will be supplied in 450 kg or 600 kg bags for

direct charging to the reactor.

Special provisions / remarks

Remarks:

Transport code: Not restricted
Transport: Considering the substance quality from all aspects, there is
no transport restriction required according to the
regulations i.e.RID/ADR, ICAO/IATA-DGR, GGVSee/IMDG-Code..


From the on site warehouse to the process area, the material
is transported within it's original packaging on curtain-
sided flat bed trailers. Loading and unloading of the
trailers is performed using fork lift trucks, operated by
trained personnel.


In the event of a spillage, observe the warning labels on
the containers.

Stability and reactivity

Danger other than fire: None

Chemical reaction with water: None

Dust explosion: Positive

Dust explosion determined by test: Y

Disposal considerations

Industry - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Discharge to the environment will be minimal. Recovery from

spillage is not economically or technically feasible and

such waste material will be disposed of by incineration.

Industry - Possibility of neutralisation: No chemical treatment is practicable to neutralize the

hazardous health and environmental properties. The dust

hazard will be controlled by the use of appropriate handling

and storage measures.

Industry - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Contaminated containers or spillages will not be disposed of

by landfill.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - incineration: The substance will be disposed of by incineration which will

be burned under controlled conditions at licensed waste

treatment processor in accordance with local regulations.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - water purification: The substance should not be discharged to the sewage system

or the aqueous environment.

Industry - Possibility of destruction - other: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of recovery/recycling: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of neutralisation: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction: controlled discharge: Not applicable.

Public at large - Possibility of destruction - incineration: Not applicable.
