We’ve officially reached peak paranoia over hazmat. Now, “possibly carrying hazardous materials” is a thing we are concerned about. I truly think people do not understand what exactly is considered hazmat, and I definitely know people don’t understand how much is shipped daily.

The last week has taught me once again that experiences regarding hazardous materials are incredibly relative to one’s own experience, with the nitric acid truck accident being the most clear example.

“Environmental tragedy” > truck carrying nitric acid spills No. Not an environmental tragedy. Not really anything other than a typical hazmat cleanup, and a very local one at that. Trucks crash all the time, hazmat spills happen on a local scale all the time.

Again, not to minimize the issue, but definitely not one of the most deadly environmental disasters in decades. Not even close.

Once again the public is horribly misinformed (for one reason or another) about commercial chemical products. Regrettably I cannot say “this is nbd”, but I really wish there was more awareness about the actual effects and reasonings behind hazmat response.

? No. It’s not Chernobyl lite. Not even close. What it is is a release of chemical material into the surrounding environment, something the US is unfortunately fairly familiar with. Not even close to being a good thing, but no. Don’t even compare it to Chernobyl.

Saw a truck with all of this in it today (additionally it had some flammable paint material placarded too, see next tweet)

Higher Ed chemistry folks: What do you wish that secondary chem teacher did in their classrooms? What do you wish the students could do in your classroom? #chemed #chemed2023 #iteachchem

For the record if Twitter goes down there is not likely to be a return of my account to any social media. As much as I’d like to continue being active in the Chem-verse there’s not really a good place to do it outside of here. Maybe I’ll reveal who I really am at that point.

Back for my semi-regular safety reminder. Don’t do dumb shit in the lab, I’m not there to clean it up anymore. Also, hello world!

I was wondering this morning why a semi truck carrying liquor didn’t need a flammable placard since the spirits onboard definitely are flammable and above the total weight limit for placarding and apparently there is a very specific exception for just that in the CFR. Cool stuff
