Checking readings on an instrument to ensure environmental safety

The Environmental & Resource Management program will demonstrate how to evaluate potential hazards from a chemical spill (flammability, toxicity, corrosivity) and the proper Personal Protective Equipment to keep first responders safe. Students will see photoionization detectors, gas detection meters, and Draeger tubes used for chemical identification. They will learn how to don and fit air purifying respirators, SCBAs (self-contained breathing apparatus), and chemical protective suits.
