Shipping requirements

Bags of various constmctions are used in the storage and transportation of dry chemicals. The choice of which type of bag to use should be based on the needs of the product for adequate protection and the requirements of the distribution network. To a certain degree, bags can be custom-made for a particular product indeed, almost any shipping requirement can be satisfied by one of many combinations of paper, plastic, and natural fibers incorporated in the design of bags. 

The designs and varieties of boxes that can be constmcted and used in chemical packaging are many. This flexibiUty in design is possible because boxes are manufactured with minimal tooling expense under specifications that are unique to each order, but which are subject to various material specifications for meeting freight and shipping requirements. 

Propylene oxide is classified as a flammable Hquid and ha2ardous substance in the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Ha2ardous Materials Table. The DOT shipping requirement is Propylene Oxide, 3, UN 1280, PG 1. The red flammable Hquid label and red flammable placard are required on aH... 

The toxicology, occupational health hazards, and transportation regulations of cesium compounds result from the anion rather than the cesium cation. Producers and distributors provide an MSDS as well as detailed shipping requirements for each product. 

Shipping. Crop samples harvested for residue testing are usually shipped to the USA or Europe for analysis. Shipping requires the availability of an international... 

Chemcyclopedia. An annual supplement to Chemical Engineering News (C EN), Chemcyclopedia [64] provides a listing of chemicals, trade names, packaging, special shipping requirements, potential applications, and CAS Registry Numbers, if available. Chemicals are listed in categories. By accessing the online edition, users may obtain detailed information about chemicals and companies. For example, users can search for specific chemicals... 

Bulk shipping requires sanitation and security procedures... 

Be made from elements available in most locations to reduce the amount of shipping required in the production and use of the fuel. 

Biological Collection. Refer to USACHPPM s TG No. 211 for radiobioassay collection, labeling, and shipping requirements. If the patient urinates, the urine should be saved for analysis for radiological contamination. Normal urinalyses can be done on portions of the sample with safety, but the laboratory should be notified that there is a potential contamination with radioactive material. It is essential that the laboratory keep a record of the volumes of urine so those appropriate laboratories can make later calculations of estimated body burdens of radioactive materials. Fecal samples should also be taken and retained in addition to nose blows and swabs. 

USACHPPM s TG 211. Radiobioassay Collection, Labeling, and Shipping Requirements. TG 211 provides specimen collection, labeling, and shipping instructions for shipments to CHPPM. 

Chemcyclopedia provides quick and easy access to valuable information for users and purchasers of chemicals. In addition to listing a given chemical, suppliers have provided trade names, available forms, packaging, special shipping requirements, and potential applications. Company names, mailing addresses, phone and fax numbers, and contacts are included. A searchable version is available on the Internet at http //pubs.acs.org. 

There are only a handful of appropriate facilities in the world for reclaiming nickel cadmium batteries, and all are subject to scrutiny and permitting by their national governments. Therefore, identification of an appropriate recycling destination is simple and, so long as collected materials are routed to one of these facilities, the transboundary shipping requirements that make up the OECD amber scheme are unnecessaiy. 

Transboundary shipping requirements (/.e., notice and consent paperwork) are a potential impediment to such movement, however, if they are unnecessarily burdensome and time consuming. This is important both from the perspective of encouraging collection and shipment for recycling, and in order to assure the economic success of reclamation activities. The facilities that process and recycle Ni-Cd batteries require a degree of certainty about the availability and time of arrival of their feedstock. Delay or uncertainty of supply adds to costs and undermines the recycling process. 

Carrier selection In situations where companies must analyze and negotiate pricing bids from carriers, there are DSS that assist with this process. Inputs are shipping requirements and carrier bid responses that handle selected lanes of freight. The DSS optimally chooses the least-cost set of carriers to fulfill the shipping volumes. A number of operational constraints such as minimum carrier commitment levels, and maximum number of carriers to select can be imposed. 

The shipping requirements for a given material will depend on its specific hazards, the quantity being shipped, and the mode of transport being used. 

In this evidence it is important to note that in February, March and April navigation in the Barents Sea (and especially in the Kara Sea) is impeded by ice and ships require an ice-breaking convoy.
