3.1.3.1.2
Separation of Incompatible Substances
Purpose: Separation of incompatible substances is essential to prevent chemical reactions that can cause fires, explosions, or toxic releases. Proper separation ensures that chemicals are stored safely, reducing the risk of accidents and protecting workers and the environment.
Poor Outcome:
Incompatible chemicals are stored together, increasing the risk of dangerous chemical reactions, fires, or toxic releases. This results in hazardous working conditions, environmental harm, and potential legal penalties.
Expected Outcome:
Chemicals are properly separated based on their compatibility, following established guidelines. This reduces the risk of dangerous reactions and ensures a safer working environment.
Excellent Outcome:
A sophisticated chemical management system is in place that automatically monitors and separates incompatible substances, preventing any risk of chemical reactions. Workers are fully trained in chemical safety, and the farm operates with maximum safety and regulatory compliance.
