FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
5.1
If fertilizer is not directly involved in the Fire
Use the best means available to extinguish the Fire.
5.2
If fertilizer is involved in the Fire
Prevent any contamination of fertilizer by oils or other combustible materials. When involved in a
fire and exposed to extremely high temperatures, the component of this product can decompose to
produce irritating vapors and toxic gases (e.g. ammonia, sulfur oxide, carbon monoxide and
dioxide).
6.
ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
-Any spillage of fertilizer should be cleaned up promptly, swept up and placed in a clean-labeled
open container for safe disposal. Do not allow mixing with sawdust and other combustible or
organic substances.
-Depending on the degree and nature of contamination, dispose of by use as a fertilizer or to an
authorized waste facility.
-Take care to avoid the contamination of watercourses and drains and inform the appropriate
authority in case of accidental contamination of watercourses.
7.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
7.1
Handling
- Avoid excessive generation of mists.
- Avoid fertilizer contamination by incompatible materials.
- Avoid unnecessary exposure to the atmosphere.
- Wear gloves and protective clothing.
7.2
Storage
- Locate away from the source of heat or Fire.
- Keep away from combustible materials and substances
- On farm, ensure that the fertilizer is not stored near hay, straw, grain diesel oil, etc.
- Ensure high standard of housekeeping in the storage area.
- Do not permit smoking and the use of naked lights in the storage areas.
- Any building used for the storage should be dry and well ventilated.
-Store under conditions to avoid product breakdown by thermal cycling (wide variation in
temperature).
- Avoid using glass or unprotected steel container.
