Design and Practice of an Organic Analysis Laboratory to Enhance Laboratory Safety

摘要

Laboratory safety has been gaining increasing attention inChinese universities in recent years. Robust laboratory designs will ensure thesafety of personnel, instruments, and the environment. This Case Study sharesthe experiences and lessons learnt from the design and reconstruction of anorganic analysis laboratory in Shenzhen University. The following aspects arediscussed: (1) the layout of the laboratory; (2) ventilation, electricity, gas, andhumidity control; (3) fire-fighting and emergency facilities; (4) chemicalstorage; and (5) waste management.
