工作人員使用甲酸時需要做好哪些措施呢?

　　What measures should be taken when using formic acid?

　　1、工作人員自身的防護

　　1. Staff protection

　　呼吸道防護：空氣中甲酸濃度超過限值，工作人員應該配備專業(yè)性的口罩。

　　Respiratory protection: if the concentration of formic acid in the air exceeds the limit, the staff should be equipped with professional masks.

　　皮膚接觸：戴橡膠手套、穿防酸工作服(圍裙)和膠靴，工作場所應設安全淋浴和眼睛沖洗器具。

　　Skin contact: wear rubber gloves, acid proof overalls (aprons) and rubber boots. Safety shower and eye washing equipment should be set up in the workplace.

　　眼睛：專業(yè)佩戴化學防濺眼鏡。

　　Eyes: professional wear chemical splash proof glasses.

　　2、發(fā)生意外的應急急救

　　2. Emergency first aid in case of accident

　　皮膚接觸：馬上脫去被污染衣物，皮膚接觸部分用大量清水清洗，并及時就醫(yī)。

　　Skin contact: take off the contaminated clothes immediately, wash the skin contact parts with plenty of water, and seek medical advice in time.

　　眼睛接觸：使眼瞼張開，用生理鹽水或微溫緩慢流水沖洗患眼20分鐘，并就醫(yī)。

　　Eye contact: open the eyelids, rinse the affected eyes with normal saline or mild water for 20 minutes, and seek medical advice.
              

　　泄露后吸入：脫離甲酸污染區(qū)，將患者移至空氣流通、新鮮處，如有呼吸停止者作人工呼吸，同時撥打電話馬上就醫(yī)。

　　Inhalation after leakage: get out of the contaminated area of formic acid and move the patient to a fresh and well ventilated place. If breathing stops, perform artificial respiration and call a doctor immediately.

　　3、儲藏和運輸

　　3. Storage and transportation

　　儲存于陰涼、干燥、通風處。遠離熱源、火種，避免日光直射，與氧化劑、堿類物品隔離儲運。運輸使用專業(yè)的運輸器械，運輸人員配備專業(yè)護具。

　　Store in a cool, dry and ventilated place. Keep away from heat source and fire, avoid direct sunlight, store and transport away from oxidant and alkali. Transport using professional transport equipment, transport personnel equipped with professional protective equipment.

　　泄漏處理

　　Leakage treatment

　　由專業(yè)人員，佩戴專業(yè)護具對已泄露在地面的甲酸，用砂土或其它不燃材料吸附或吸收也可將地面撒上蘇打灰，并用大量水沖洗，并將水引導處理，防止污染地下水，如果泄漏量過大，一定要將泄露液體收集，轉移處理，防止二次污染。

　　Professional personnel wear professional protective equipment to absorb or absorb formic acid leaked on the ground with sand or other non combustible materials. The ground can also be sprinkled with soda ash and washed with a large amount of water, and the water will be guided for treatment to prevent groundwater pollution. If the leakage is too large, the leaked liquid must be collected, transferred and treated to prevent secondary pollution.
