Chemical data gives your team a foundation for health & safety, environmental reporting, and more, but it isn’t always easy to come by. You need to know that the data you rely on is both complete and accurate, but how? Even basic chemical properties can sometimes be difficult to track down, and it only becomes more challenging from there. Workplace safety, transportation, and other activities require complete insight into GHS and CLP chemical hazard classification. Your team must also ensure that they know which chemicals are reportable under which regulations, with thresholds and chemical lists constantly changing. This challenge can’t be overcome without a dedicated team of environmental scientists and regulatory experts. Luckily, ERA has already set our team to that task and developed ERA’s Master Chemical List (MCL). This constantly updated resource provides ERA clients with comprehensive data on over 216,000 chemicals. Find out more about what’s included in the MCL and how it can benefit your team: https://lnkd.in/en-2UEdS #EnvironmentalCompliance #GHSClassification #ChemicalDataManagement

To verify contractors and conduct regular audits of your disposal vendors are key components to ensuring your chemical management policy is effectively implemented. By doing so, you reinforce your commitment to chemical safety, environmental protection, and corporate responsibility, fostering confidence in your chemical management practices. How to Verify Contractors: • Check Credentials: Vet potential waste disposal contractors thoroughly by checking their credentials, certifications, and regulatory compliance history. • Request References: Request references and review their disposal practices, particularly their compliance with environmental regulations. • Confirm Permits: Ensure they have a proper waste handling and disposal permit and understand the specific requirements for disposing of hazardous chemicals. Regular Audits: • Conduct Periodic Audits: Conduct periodic audits of waste disposal practices to verify compliance with your requirements and regulatory standards. • Review Documentation: Review waste disposal documentation, such as manifests and receipts, to ensure proper tracking from generation to final disposal. • Evaluate Facilities: Evaluate the contractor’s facilities and processes to ensure they align with environmental best practices.

We partner with industry to help them improve Organisational Safety, Process Safety and Human Reliabitity.
Beyond the Lab: The Crucial Role of Chemical Reaction Hazard Modelling in Process Safety Process safety is crucial in preventing hazardous chemical accidents, especially as industries evolve. Accurate prediction and mitigation of chemical reaction risks are essential to avoid catastrophic consequences. In this evolving landscape, safety is foundational to operational excellence and sustainability. Chemical reaction hazard modelling is vital, safeguarding facilities, lives, and the environment while enabling innovative progress.

🔵 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐄𝐏𝐀 𝐌𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐝 21? Created by the 𝐔𝐒 𝐄𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 (𝐄𝐏𝐀) due to noncompliance issues with 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫 (𝐋𝐃𝐀𝐑) programs. The 𝐄𝐏𝐀 introduced Method 21, a stringent approach aimed at reducing the annual emissions of 40,000 tons of 𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐬 (𝐕𝐎𝐂𝐬) from compromised equipment at petroleum plants. 𝐄𝐏𝐀 Method 21 focuses on the detection of 𝐕𝐎𝐂 leaks in equipment such as valves, pumps, and compressors using specialised monitoring instruments. This method is crucial for ensuring safety and environmental compliance, as 𝐕𝐎𝐂 exposure can lead to significant health and fire hazards. Our innovative 𝐕𝐞𝐧𝐭-𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐡, complemented by 𝐎𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐚𝐬 𝐈𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐎𝐆𝐈), is designed to support facilities in adhering to Method 21 standards, enhancing both efficiency and safety in emissions management. #epa #method21 #environmental #compliance #sustainability

management of change MOC + PSSR importance to avoid process safety incidents
H2/CCS Process Safety & Risk Consultant . Council Member at Safety and Reliability Society . Saïd Business School, University of Oxford
To further elaborate on preventive measures, here are a few aspects for consideration: - Understanding our Major Accident Hazard processes and chemical properties will support the prevention of process safety events like this. - The application of Inherently Safe Design provides a valuable opportunity to have safer plants by applying the principles of elimination/substitution, minimisation, moderation and simplification. Where plants are operational: - A robust Management of Change process will help ensure that changes are risk assessed - Periodic Process Hazard Analysis will provide proactive and structured approach to identify improvement opportunities for safer operations and maintenance. What additional preventative measures can be applied? What do you think? “The lessons of process safety are written in blood”. - Trevor Kletz #processsafety #hydrogen #EnergySector #RiskManagement #SystemThinking #processsafety #managementofchange #highhazard #riskassessment #safety #safetyengineering #psm #oilandgas #riskmanagement #manufacturing #chemicals

Sound chemicals assessments in the transition to a sustainable, circular economy | Founder at Embark Chemical Consulting
Four reasons why environmental #persistence is an issue that all manufacturers of #chemicals, chemical #products, and #brands need to be aware of: 1. New #compliance deadlines under the EU CLP regulation, starting May 2025 ⏰ 2. Big increases in requests for new testing under EU REACH 📈 3. Customers expect products to be #biodegradable as the norm 🤷♂️ 4. Persistence assessments are complex, challenging, and can have far-reaching implications 💥 Subscribe to the Embark Chemical Consulting newsletter to receive this latest article, where I unpack these points and explain why persistence is a cross-cutting issue and a top priority for product #safety and #sustainability. https://lnkd.in/eqzG7UmH #SSbD
