Perform a ramp table/analysis for the following: Hexane, Acetone, Dichloromethane, Use of a UV lamp for TLC, and heating on a hot plate
Recognize Hazards
R: Identify the most important physical hazards from equipment, conditions, and procedures. These include electrical and mechanical hazards and high or low temperature or pressure.
Assess the Risks of the Hazards
A: Assess the risks presented by the most important hazards (know the chemical, evaluate the information, assess concentrations and handling)
What would be the probable results of that exposure, should it occur?
Minimize the Risks of the Hazards
M: Identify methods to minimize risks for exposure to chemicals used or produced
Think about the PPE you need, and where to put the waste, where to return chemicals safely, clean surfaces, close hood
Prepare for Emergencies
P: Plan for common emergencies like spills, cuts, burns, exposures, know emergency dismissal and where safety stuff is in the lab
In a laboratory setting, it is important to be aware of potential hazards and to have a plan in place to minimize risks and prepare for emergencies. This includes recognizing potential physical and chemical hazards, assessing the risks associated with these hazards, and implementing measures to minimize these risks. In this answer, we will perform a ramp (recognize, assess, minimize, prepare) analysis for hexane, acetone, dichloromethane, use of a UV lamp for TLC, and heating on a hot plate. This information can help ensure a safe and secure laboratory environment.
