1. Laboratory Safety Accident Report 🧪 Accident Overview - During storage of waste liquid barrels, chemical reactions occurred due to improper labeling and mixing of incompatible waste liquids. - The reaction released toxic gases, causing dizziness, nausea, and vomiting among nearby personnel. ⚠️ Causes of the Accident 1. Waste liquid containers were not properly labeled, leading to confusion between organic and inorganic waste. 2. Long-term storage without proper management caused chemical degradation and unstable reactions. 3. Lack of regular inspection and disposal of laboratory waste. 4. Inadequate safety awareness among laboratory staff. 💥 Consequences - Personnel exposure to toxic gases resulted in mild poisoning symptoms. - Laboratory area was contaminated and temporarily shut down for cleaning and ventilation. - Potential fire or explosion risk if the reaction had intensified. 🧯 Corrective Actions - Immediately evacuate personnel and ventilate the area. - Neutralize and safely dispose of chemical residues. - Conduct medical checks for affected individuals. ✅ Preventive Measures - Always label all waste containers clearly with chemical composition and date. - Separate organic and inorganic waste liquids. - Regularly inspect and dispose of waste chemicals. - Provide safety training and emergency drills for laboratory personnel.
