Application

Applications of Industrial Salt: 

• Drilling Mud:
Oil well drilling is often through rock salt strata, and saturated brine is used in the drilling fluid to preserve the core intact. Mud formulas sometimes contain starch, the properties of which are destroyed by fermentation. Salt is added to prevent this. 

• Chemical Industries:
The greatest salt consumption is for direct and indirect chemical uses as a chemical raw material. 

• Water Treatment:
Commercial and residential water softening units use salt to remove the ions causing the hardness. 

• Food Processing:
From sanitation point the biggest problem in food-grade is rust but PVD Salt has not this problem due to use special alloy equipment. In addition, metal can catalyze oxidation reaction such as rancidity and color or vitamin loss, the metal content in our PVD Salt very low as per the standard of food and chemical codex.

Skin Contact Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected area with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove victim from exposure to fresh air. If not breathing, apply artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical attention if effects persist.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Give plenty of water to drink. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Notes to Physician Treat symptomatically

Flammability              Non Flammable
General Measure Clear fire area of all non-emergency personnel. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas. Eliminate ignition sources. Move fire exposed containers from fire area if it can be done without risk.
Suitable extinguishing media In case of fire, use appropriate extinguishing media most suitable for surrounding fire conditions (dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or foam).
Hazardous combustion
products
Salt withstands temperatures up to its meting point and beyond without decomposing, but at very high temperatures (greater than approximately 800 deg C) a vapour may be emitted which is particularly irritating to the eyes. Contains no water of crystallization. Does not react with alkalis at ordinary temperatures. When heated to decomposition at a very high temperature it emits toxic fumes of chlorine & sodium oxide
Protective Equipment Fire fighters should wear a positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers, boots and gloves).
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical Salt poses no fire or explosion hazard if involved in a fire, therefore use fire fighting procedures suitable for surrounding area. Salt is not combustible.

Spillage Avoid the spillage or runoff entering drains, sewers or watercourses. Avoid generation and spreading of dust. Remove spillage with vacuum cleaner or collect with a shovel and broom, or similar. Collect and place in suitable waste disposal containers and seal securely. Flush contaminated area with plenty of water.
Personal Protectio Avoid prolonged contact with the skin and inhalation of dust concentrations, otherwise normal good handling and housekeeping practice is adequate. No special protective clothing is required. An eyewash bottle with clean water should be available. Avoid generating dust. Stop leak if safe to do so. Isolate the danger area. Use clean, nonsparking tools and equipment.
Enviromental Precaution Do NOT let product reach drains or waterways. If product does enter a waterway, advise the Environmental Protection Authority or your local Waste Management.
Evacuation Criteria Evacuate all unnecessary personnel.

Handling

Ensure an eye bath and safety shower are available and ready for use. Observe good personal hygiene practices and recommended procedures. Wash thoroughly after handling. Take precautionary measures against static discharges by bonding and grounding equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not inhale product dust/fumes. Salt dust is non-flammable but static electricity can be generated by pneumatic conveying, therefore pipes should be bonded and earthed, especially in environments where a spark could prove hazardous.

Storage Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Store away from oxidising materials. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Inspect regularly for deficiencies such as damage or leaks. Protect against physical damage. Store away from incompatible materials as listed in section 10. Due to its hydroscopic nature, salt should be stored in a dry atmosphere and away from concentrated acids. Absorbs moisture if the relative humidity is above 75 % Product should be stored in such a way that it does not present a hazard if product were to fall. This product is not classified dangerous for transport according to The Australian Code for the Transport of Dangerous Goods By Road and Rail.
Advice on general occupational hygiene Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. Wash hands and any other contaminated areas of the body with soap and water before leaving the work site. Provide eyewash station and safety shower.

Engineering Control Under normal circumstances engineering controls are not required however if use creates dust to a level that is a discomfort to workers a local exhaust system is recommended. A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Static electricity can be generated by pneumatic conveying, therefore pipes should be bonded and earthed, especially in environments where a spark could prove hazardous.
 
Personal Protection Eye/face Protection: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations .
Skin and body protection: Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to prevent skin exposure. 
Respiratory Protection :  Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29 CFR 1910.134.Use a NIOSH/MSHA any Standard approved respirator exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
Other Protection Measure Skin should be washed to remove salt. Dry salt and concentrated solutions can cause withdrawal of fluid from the skin. An eyewash and hand washing facilities should be readily available.

EyeIrritant Dust exposure may cause physical irritation to the eyes because of the particulate nature of the product.
Ingestion                       Salt is an essential constituent of the diet. It provides important body electrolytes and is the source of hydrochloric, acid present in the gastric juices. The blood stream contains nearly 1% sodium chloride. In normal industrial use salt is non-hazardous. Acute and chronic toxic effects can result from the ingestion of excessive amounts of either salt or brine. Salt should not be used as an emetic to induce vomiting. High concentrations produce inflammatory reactions in the gastrointestinal tract and can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, convulsions and collapse. The ingestion of hypertonic solutions can cause fatal disturbance of body electrolyte and fluid balance particularly in the young and elderly. Less than a tablespoon of salt may severely poison an infant and sometimes prove fatal. May cause vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, thirst, fever, and convulsion after excessive ingestion. Dehydration may occur in most internal organs, central nervous system may be affected resulting in confusion or coma.
Inhalation Inhalation Abrasive irritant to mucous membranes. May give salty taste or cause irritation to nose & throat. Symptoms could be coughing, sore and dry throat.
Skin Irritant Irritation after prolonged contact. Dry salt and concentrated solutions can cause withdrawal of fluid from the skin and may, on prolonged contact, produce irritation.
