The use of toxicity reduction agents is essential in the proper treatment and subsequent handling of hazardous material spills and process materials. A hazardous material has not been properly dealt with until it has been rendered harmless. Neutralizers minimize the risk of dealing with hazardous spills and wastes. Neutralized products and/or absorbents can be considered non-hazardous and may be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner.When mercury is spilled, it can break up into fine particles that disperse and infiltrate inaccessible areas. These particles, if left untreated, continuously release mercury vapours into the air. These vapours are heavy and can build up to toxic levels.This mercury vapour suppressant has been specially developed to deal with highly dispersed mercury. The chemically activated particles bind to mercury surfaces and absorb mercury vapour. This suppressant is ideally suited to penetrate inaccessible areas, such as cracks and crevices, where mercury particles can reside. It is easy to apply and will effectively suppresses the generation of vapours to well below hazardous levels. It is convenient and safe for workers to use.
