Where there is a risk of explosion from electrical equipment....non-sparking tools shall be provided and used in such atmospheres.
Typical techniques involve: Application of sorbents either loose, as mats or in “sausages”. As many low viscosity chemical spills rapidly spread to cover a large surface area, these techniques are most applicable if the spread of the chemical can be confined.
