Stored Material

Patients with GMi-gangliosidosis have rarefaction of the bones and deformed vertebrae. The neuronal cells in the brain are distended with membranous cytoplasmic bodies which resemble in some degree the inclusions found in nerve cells of Tay-Sachs patients. The spleen and liver are enlarged, and the bone marrow contains foam cells distended with stored material. The glomeruli of the kidneys are also swollen with accumulating substance. 

The major accumulating substance is ganglioside Gmi [galactosyl - 3) AT-acetylgalactosaminyl (1- 4) (AT-acetylneuraminyl) (2A3) galac-

Open Tanks These may be used to store materials that will not be harmed by water, weather, or atmospheric pollution. Otherwise, a roof, either fixed or floating, is required. Fixed roofs are usually either domed or coned. Large tanks have coned roofs with intermediate supports. Since negligible pressure is involved, snow and wind are the principal design loads. Local building codes often give required values. 

Use enclosed conveyors and sieves for coal and coke handling. Use sprinklers and plastic emulsions to suppress dust formation. Provide windbreaks where feasible. Store materials in bunkers or warehouses. Reduce drop distances.

Are all stored materials labeled clearly and correctly Identify a schedule of omissions. Identify the risk category. 

It is handled in a manner inconsistent with its use as a raw material or commercial product substitute (e.g., storing materials in a leaking surface impoundment as compared to a tank in good condition that is intended for storing raw materials). 

In addition to tobacco smokers, individuals who have had previous exposure to materials containing methylene chloride, such as degreasers, solvents, paint removers, and furniture strippers, are at greater risk because of an existing body burden of carbon monoxide. Approximately one-fourth to one-third of inhaled methylene chloride vapor is metabolized in the liver to carbon monoxide. In addition, methylene chloride is readily stored in body tissue. This stored material is released over time and results in elevated levels of carbon monoxide for extended periods, in some cases more than twice as long as compared with direct carbon monoxide inhalation. 

The minimum design temperature should be the lowest temperature to which the tank will be subjected, taking into consideration the minimum temperature of material entering the tank, the minimum temperature to which the material may be autorefrigerated by rapid evaporation of low-boiling liquids or mechanically refrigerated, the minimum ambient temperature of the area where the tank is located, and any possible temperature reduction by endothermic physical processes or chemical reactions involving the stored material. API 620 provides for installations in areas where the lowest recorded 1-day mean temperature is 50°F (10°C). 

If the outdoor stored material consists of flammables or combustibles in containers or combustible bulk piles, an adequate number of hydrants should surround the area with approximately 200 ft (61 m) between each other and the material to be protected to allow manual firefighting. 

Outdoor storage areas are seldom provided active fire protection by fixed systems to protect them from exposure by events in adjacent areas. However, on a case-by-case basis, specific fixed fire protection systems, often fire monitors, may be added where the outdoor stored material ... 

Protection of facilities that are exposed to a fire hazard from an outdoor storage area is preferably achieved passively by adequate separation distance to the potentially exposed facilities. When the quantity of stored material is large, it should be separated into smaller groups or piles with adequate aisle space maintained to prevent uncontrolled fire spread within the defined storage area. An often used spacing guide for stacked or piled materials is aisle width should equal stack height. 

Segregating different stored materials due to their hazardous properties... 

Reduced inventory - as materials are used at a steady rate and API is produced continuously. Supply logistics can therefore be designed around regular time intervals rather than having to store material for a complete manufacturing campaign. 

Only authorized personnel should be allowed to handle the material and this handling should be done under the supervision of a responsible person. Access to stored material should be controlled. Different seed lots or cell banks should be stored in such a way to avoid confusion or cross-contamination. It is desirable to split the seed lots and cell banks and to store the parts at different locations so as to minimize the risks of total loss. 

Animal feed and bedding should be stored off the floor to facilitate cleaning. Food storage areas and areas used to store other perishable supphes should be temperature-controlled to protect against deterioration of the stored materials. 

Since chemical reactions are accelerated by temperature increases, the recommendation is to store materials at the highest possible temperature consistent with practical limits—i.e.y 165°F., for the longest possible storage period. Storage data generated for liquid and slurry propellants are of two types (1) laboratory controlled experiments, and (2) field tests in hermetically sealed containers. The laboratory experiments provide for rapid and convenient determinations and are used primarily for comparing one propellant with another or for comparing the relative...
