Hazardous Materials: Is Your Chemical Storage Solution Compliant?

Managing the hazardous substances that are used within your business can be a difficult task, but your duties are not limited to protecting your staff when they are simply using the materials that could pose a risk to their health if not adequately controlled. Businesses also have a duty to correctly dispose of any hazardous waste and to effectively manage and prevent the spillage of those substances.

In this webinar, Flow Science CFD Engineer Brian Fox explains how to model chemical reactions in FLOW-3D using the reaction kinetics model. The presentation includes an overview of capabilities for the reaction kinetics model, then a preview of the new reaction kinetics GUI set to be released with FLOW-3D v12.0. Learn more about FLOW-3D's comprehensive 3D modeling solutions for the water and environmental industry.

Before marketing a new chemical, the manufacturer/importer, in order to meet the various national and international legal requirements, has to submit information in the form of a notification or registration (e.g. phys-chem, toxicological, ecotoxicological data) to support each Government’s risk assessment to determine whether the substance poses an unreasonable risk to the environment and/or human health. Some countries require pre-manufacture/import notification while for many jurisdictions, the chemical notification process is a tiered system requiring subsequent notifications as the annual amount of the imported or manufactured substance increases. Further, there are expanding global initiatives to assess chemicals already in the marketplace and subsequently take action on any chemicals found to be harmful to human health and/or the environment.
