Transcript: UN HAZMAT CLASSES 1 CLASS 1- EXPLOSIVES Explosives are classified as dangerous goods because they are capable of producing hazardous amounts of heat, light, sound, gas, or smoke. Commonly transported explosives include: Ammunition/cartridges Fireworks/pyrotechnics Flares Detonators Air bag inflators Igniters Rockets CLASS 2- GASES 2 The class of gases includes compressed gases, liquefied gases, dissolved gases, refrigerated liquefied gases, aerosols, and more. Gases are dangerous because they pose a serious risk as potential asphyxiants and because of their flammability. Some examples include: Aerosols Fire extinguishers Gas cartridges Lighters Acetylene Carbon dioxide Heliums Hydrogen Oxygen Nitrogen Division 2.1: Flammable gases Division 2.2: Non-flammable, non-toxic gases Division 2.3: Toxic gases Flammable liquids are volatile and are capable of giving off a flammable vapour. CLASS 3 FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS 3 Commonly transported flammable liquids include: Acetone Adhesives Paints / lacquers / varnishes Alcohols Perfumery products Petrol Diesel fuel CLASS 5- OXIDISERS & ORGANIC PEROXIDES 5 Substances which can yield oxygen are classified as dangerous goods because, although not necessarily combustible in themselves, they can contribute to the combustion of other hazardous substances. FLAMMABLE SOLIDS 4 Flammable solids are highly combustible and can even cause fire through friction. They are certainly capable of inflicting serious damage. Examples include: Alkali metals Metal powders Sodium batteries Firelighters Matches Carbon Toxic substances are classified for being able to cause serious injury or death to humans if swallowed, inhaled, or by contact with skin. Infectious substances are classified for containing pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, parasites, or other agents which can cause disease in humans or animals upon contact. CLASS 6- TOXIC MATERIALS & INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCES 6 Radioactive materials are defined as any substance which contains atoms that are subject to radioactive decay. Consequently, whilst undergoing radioactive decay, radioactive material can emit potentially harmful ionizing radiation. CLASS 7 RADIOCATIVE MATERIALS 7 CORROSIVE MATERIALS 8 8 Corrosive substances react chemically to damage or destroy material, like living tissue, upon contact. MISCELLANEOUS DANGEROUS GOODS 9 9 As the class name suggests, miscellaneous dangerous goods are substance which present a danger not covered by other classes. According to the U.N., this class includes environmentally hazardous substances, elevated temperature substances, and GMMOs or GMOs.

Transcript: Hazardous Materials Brock & Cheyenne HAZMAT Aug 19, 2020 Exposure Types & Routes Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) Here's a place for the first part of your presentation. And to the right, there are subsections for more specific detail. Chemical or radioactive substances that can harm an individual and the environment upon exposure with the potential for varying levels of poisoning/medical complications. Exposure Types Exposure Can occur after industrial, residential, or transportation incidents and natural disastars. Asbestos / Black Mold MVI involving Dangerous Goods Chernobyl Disaster of 1986 Fukushima Tsunami -> Nuclear Meltdown Routes of Exposure Routes of Exposure The route of exposure can change the effect the material has on the body. DERMAL Dermal exposures occur when a person's closed/intact skin comes into contact with a hazardous material Dermal Dermal exposures mainly result in local effects such as reddening of the skin, blisters, localized pain, but if the material is absorbeed into the skin, systemic effects may occur. Parental Parental exposures occur when a hazardous material is able to enter the body through an open wound or broken skin. This include the use of needles or needlestick injuries. Parental Gastrointestinally A GI exposure occurs when a hazardous material is swallowed/injested and is then carried through the GI tract. Gastro- Intestinal Respiratory Respiratory exposures occur when a hazardous gas or fumes are inhaled into the lungs. Respiratory Dose Effect Principle Dose Effect Principle Regardless of the route or type of exposure, the greater the length of time of exposure or the greater the concentration, the greater impact on the individual. Contamination Types of Contamination Here's a place for the second part of your presentation. And to the right, there are subsections for more specific detail. Here's a place for the second part of your presentation. And to the right, there are subsections for more specific detail. Primary Primary Contamination Occurs through direct contact or exposure with a hazardous material. Secondary Secondary Contamination Occurs when a hazardous material is transferred to a person from another contaminated object or person. Secondary contamination is why having a decontamination corridor in the warm zone is so important. HAZMAT Hazard Zones Here's a place for the third part of your presentation. And to the right, there are subsections for more specific detail. HAZMAT Hazard Zones Hot/Exclusion zone Warm/Decontamination zone Cold zone / Pommand post Hot Zone / Exclusion Zone The hot zone is the contamination zone where the hazardous materials and potential victims are located. Only trained rescuers with appropriate PPE are allowed to enter this zone Warm / Decontamination Zone The warm or intermediate zone encircles the hot zone and is typically where decontamination occurs. The warm zone may only be entered by hasardous material specialists wearing appropriate PPE. Cold Zone / Command Centre The cold zone encircles the warm zone and provides a further buffer from the hazards that are present in the hot and warm zones. The command center is normally set up in the cold zone UPHILL, UPWIND, AND UPSTREAM from the containment or hot zone. Site for paramedics to perform patient assessment, triage, and treatment.
