Compressed Gas Cylinders in the Laboratory

Course Description:

Compressed gases are commonly used in laboratory operations and many other areas of life, from barbecuing to welding. However, these gases present real hazards. They can lead to fires and explosions, toxic contaminations that adversely affect the health of workers, and even widespread public health emergencies that may lead to an evacuation.

Laboratory employees are responsible for using these gases safely. This means not only understanding the qualities and hazards of the gases themselves, but also learning the proper procedures for handling, using, and storing the cylinders containing these gases. That’s why this training session focuses on working safely with compressed gases and cylinders.
