Aerosol Propellant Safety Virtual Webinar Series

Event Info

Volunteer members of the Household & Commercial Products Association (HCPA) have compiled critical information contained in the Aerosol Propellants: Considerations for Effective Handling in the Aerosol Plant and Laboratory Manual for the convenience of its members and the aerosol industry.  This manual contains information on propellants shipping, receiving, storage, and handling; compressed and soluble gas propellants; location and construction, ventilation, gas detection, electrical equipment, piping systems, fire prevention and control in propellant charging and pump rooms; disposal of rejected aerosol containers; and laboratory safety.  Essentially, the basic safety needed by all aerosol product manufacturers and laboratories.

HCPA is proud to bring together volunteer speakers to share their expertise on each section of the manual in this webinar series format.  The webinar series is for both beginners and those that need a refresher on the safety aspects of propellants in an aerosol facility or laboratory.
