Safely Dispose Hydrogen Peroxide
On the Safe Disposal of Hydrogen Peroxide
For hydrogen peroxide, chemical substances are also used in daily use, medicine, and industry. However, its nature is lively, and if it is not handled properly, it may be dangerous, so the safe disposal method must not be ignored.
To safely dispose of hydrogen peroxide, the first thing to know is its nature. Hydrogen peroxide, the scientific name of hydrogen peroxide, is highly oxidizing, and it is easy to decompose when exposed to heat, light, metals, and impurities. Oxygen is released, and there is a risk of flammable substances or combustion and explosion.
In households, if there is a small amount of hydrogen peroxide that needs to be disposed of, it can be slowly poured into a large amount of water and diluted before being discharged into the sewer. This move is intended to reduce the concentration of hydrogen peroxide and reduce its harm. When operating, be sure to wear protective gloves and glasses to prevent inadvertent splashing, skin and eyes.
As for industrial occasions, the amount of hydrogen peroxide is quite large, and the disposal needs to be particularly cautious. The factory should set up a special disposal process in accordance with relevant regulations and standards. Chemical reduction can be used to react with a suitable reducing agent and hydrogen peroxide to convert it into harmless substances. For example, an appropriate amount of sodium thiosulfate solution is mixed with hydrogen peroxide, and after chemical reaction, the hydrogen peroxide can be changed into stable sulfate and water. After the reaction, the solution composition is tested, and it can be discharged after reaching the standard.
In addition, the place where hydrogen peroxide is stored should be selected as a cool and ventilated place, protected from heat and light, and away from fire sources and flammable materials. The container should also be well sealed to prevent volatilization and leakage. If there is any leakage, quickly cover it with inert materials such as sand and vermiculite, and then dispose of it properly.
In short, the safe disposal of hydrogen peroxide is related to the safety of life and property and the protection of the environment. No matter at home or in industry, you should abide by norms and operate scientifically, so as to avoid disasters and ensure safety.
