Name
Physical and Chemical Properties for Risk Based Response (Off-Site)
Date & Time
Wednesday, June 7, 2023, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Description

Hazards, Risks, and Consequences during this 8 hour highly interactive class, participants will understand the significance in using physical and chemical properties to assess hazards encountered at hazardous materials incidents, apply physical and chemical properties to manage risk during hazardous materials incidents, and understand consequences of how things can go wrong on hazardous materials incidents. During this lecture flash point, flammable range, boiling point, vapor pressure, auto ignition temperature, molecular weight, vapor density, and solubility will be demonstrated. This lecture will also demonstrate the properties of liquefied compressed gasses as well as cryogenics. This high energy fast paced demonstrations will leave the audience / students with a keen awareness of street-smart chemistry of hazardous materials and how to apply physical and chemical properties to Risk Based Emergency Response!
