SECTION IX SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING Proper handling of sodium hypochlorite solution requires safety requirements (as described above) and as stated on the labels. Full protection as described above should be provided when handling bulk shipments of concentrated, Industrial sodium hypochlorite solutions. PROPER HANDLING AND STORAGE REQUIREMENTS Store in vented, closed, clean, non -corrosive containers in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight and not adjacent to chemicals which may react with the sodium hypochlorite solution if spillage occurs. If, shipped, must comply with DOT, etc. shipping regulations. If closed containers become heated, the containers should be vented to release decomposition products (mainly oxygen under normal decomposition). Do not mix or contaminate with ammonia, hydrocarbons, acids, alcohols, ethers, or isocyanurates. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS Strong oxidizing agent. Mix only with water according to label directions. Store upright in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Do not store near other incompatible swimming pool products such as chlorinated isocyanurates or muriatic acid. Rinse empty container thoroughly with plenty of water. Do not contaminate food, feed, or water by storage, disposal or cleaning of equipment. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated shoes. ADDITIONAL REGULATORY CONCERNS EPA: May not be used for disinfection or sanitizing without prior approval by EPA.

JUL 13 '93 09:06AM FEED RITE TESSMAM SEWAGE & WASTEWATER EFFLUENT TREATMENT The disinfection of sewage effluent must be evaluated by determinir-�..'file total number of coliform bacteria and/or fecal coliform bacterib,..`;as determined by the Most Probable Numbor (MPN) procedure, of the rhlorir.Gted effluent that has been reduced to or below the maximum permitted bg, the controlling regulatory Jurisdiction. On the average, satisfactory disinfection of secondary wastew;A+q'- efflvopt can be obtained when the chlorine residual is 0.5 ppm after 15 minutes contact. Although the chlorine residual is the critial factur in disinfection, the importance of correlating chlorine residual with bacteriGl kill must be emphasized. The MPN of the effluent, which is directly related to the water quality standards requirements, should be the final and primary standard and the chlorine residual should be considered an operating standard valid only to the extent verified by the coliform quality of the effluent. The following are critical factors affecting wastewater disinfection. 1. Mixing! It is imperative that the product and the wastewater be instantaneously and completely flash mixed to assure reaction with every chemically active soluble and particulate component of the '• wastewater. 2. Contacting! Upon flash mixing, the flow through the system must he maintained. 3. Dosage/Residual Control: ' Successful disinfection is extre'm9ly dependent on response to fluctuating chlorine demand to maintain a predetermined desirable chlorine level. Secondary effluent should contain 0.2 to 1.0 ppm chlorine residual after a 15 to 30 minute contact time, A reasonable average of residual Chlorine is 0.5 ppm after 15 minutes contact time. ---------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- SEWAGE & WASTEWATER TREATMENT EFFLUENT SLIME CONTROL -- Apply a 100 to 1000 ppm available chlorine solution at a location which will allow complete mixing.
