Have a blast!

摘要

The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (DSEAR) are designed to alert people to the many risks associated with the handling of flammable materials - especially given that even the smallest quantities can prove deadly, and that seemingly harmless substances can become significantly more dangerous when subjected to certain unfavourable conditions.rnTo highlight the consequences of unwittingly mixing incompatible chemicals Denios will be running a programme of live, practical demonstrations on its stand, D84. The nature of the demonstrations ranges from the surprising - who knew that a can of WD40 makes a fearsome flamethrower? - to the mainstream, such as the lethal percentage rating for oxygen, and ensuring that the correct fire-extinguishing system for the substances involved is available.rnThe presentations are designed to be informative, lively, and entertaining, and will take place under the stewardship of Denios managing director, Roy Smith, who explained: "Our aim is to raise the participants' awareness and perception of hazardous materials, so as to detect dangers and avoid accidents that would threaten bothrnhuman life and the solvency of the participants' organisation.
