George Eads, "Chemicals as a Regulated Industry Implications for Research and Product Development", draft paper presented at the American Chemical Society Meeting, Symposium on The Effects of Government Regulation on Chemical Innovation, Miami Beach, FL, September 14, 1978. [Pg.66]

On January 1, 1977, the chemical industry truly became a regulated industry. The environmental laws up until that time had covered some chemicals, but had been media oriented. That is — they were concerned about certain chemicals that escaped as emissions or pollutants to various media - the air, our water, contaminated our food or entered the workplace. TSCA changed that direction. It was designed to regulate commerce on chemical substances. TSCA potentially applies to all chemicals manufactured, processed, distributed or used in the U.S. except those chemicals already regulated under certain other federal laws. TSCA affects not only the chemical industry itself, but the many other industries whose products are chemical in nature. This includes most all industrial products. [Pg.81]

Calcium carbide is classed as a ha2ardous chemical under Department of Transportation regulations. Domestic shipments are mainly in steel tote bins varying in capacity from 2.5—4.5 t. A small amount continues to be shipped in industrial wide mouth steel dmms of 270 kg capacity. Containers must be marked "Flammable soHd, dangerous when wet" and have the United Nations designation UN 1402. [Pg.461]

ORP Oxidation reduction potential - the degree of completion of a chemical reaction by detecting the ratio of ions in the reduced form to those in the oxidized form as a variation in electrical potential measured by an ORP electrode assembly. OSHA The Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA) is a law designed to protect the health and safety of industrial workers and treatment plant operators. It regulates the design, construction, operation and maintenance of industrial plants and wastewater treatment plants. The Act does not apply directly... [Pg.620]
