A NH3 Tanker Truck rolled over and lost it’s load. A GREAT video to see the behavior of a Liquid Spill of NH3. We can see the liquid pouring our of the tanker and immediately flashing off to a gas. Auto-refrigeration is observed as the gas hangs low over the pooling liquid. AMAZING FOOTAGE at 1:53 into the video and another CRITICAL mistake at 2:06 into the video.

One of the most common questions I used to get on emergency response scenes is:
“How do you determine when we can stop wearing SCBAs and begin wearing Air Purifying Respirators”?
The decision is often a heated debate due to the user’s lack of knowledge. The scary part is that these are trained HAZMAT Technicians who should know better. But, after a quick survey...

ALERT #1 from Lyondellbassell
A contractor was wearing a cotton flame resistant garment (FRC). According to testing done by the Newtown Square Research Center and the clothing manufacturer, these fabrics can exothermically react with bleach solutions to produce enough heat to burn skin and give off toxic gases (see box in alert). Nomex flame resistant garments do NOT react similarly. The...

On Saturday, December 17, 2011, a surface mechanic was seriously injured while setting a transmission into a CAT 777F rock truck using a truck-mounted hydraulic crane.

The victim was standing on the frame rail of the rock truck at the time of the accident....
