SECTION 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
8.1. Control parameters
Activated carbon (7440-44-0)*
≤ 5 (Respirable Fraction)
≤ 15 (Total Dust)
*Exposure limits are for inert or nuisance dust. No specific exposure limits have been established for this activated carbon product by OSHA or ACGIH.
8.2. Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering controls
Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits. Use explosion
-proof equipment with flammable materials. Ensure adequate
especially in confined areas. Wet activated carbon can deplete oxygen from air in
enclosed spaces. If use in an enclosed space is required, procedures for work in an oxygen
deficient environment should be followed.
Personal protective equipment
Gloves. Safety glasses. Protective clothing. Under insufficient ventilation conditions wear
respiratory protection
.
Gloves should be classified under Standard EN 374 or ASTM F1296. Suggested glove
materials ar
e: Neoprene, Nitrile/butadiene rubber, Polyethylene, Ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate,
Suitable gloves for this specific application can be recommended by the glove
Use eye protection suitable to the environment. Avoid direct contact with eyes.
Wear long sleeves, and chemically impervious PPE/coveralls to minimize bodily exposure.
Use NIOSH-approved dust/particulate respirator. Where vapor, mist, or dust exceed PELs or
other applicable OELs, use NIOSH
-approved respiratory protective equipment.
