Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S)
gas is produced by anaerobic bacterial decomposition of organic
matter normally found near volcanic regions, hot springs, petroleum
refineries, paper mills, workplaces and several other places located
in hot areas.
H2S is very toxic in
nature and smells like rotten eggs. It’s heavier than air,
corrosive, inflammable and explosive in nature. Minor concentration
of H2S does not affect anybody rather than a foul smell. But, if its
concentration exceeds than 100ppm or 200 ppm, its odour become
undetectable to humans and it influence very badly starting from
irritation, difficulty in breathing and breakdown to death.
In an industrial
environment, employees and supervisors are prearranged gas detecting
monitors to constantly measure the concentration of H2S in the air
while exposed to some place having any level of Risk of H2S gas.
As well, the supervisors
are provided proper H2S Alive training to ensure hundred percent
safety of all personnel and work machines present in such situation.
Mission safety services is a health and safety professional company
providing an Enform certified H2S Alive training and certification
intended for anyone working in Edmonton or Alberta areas.
