Use This Not That: Safer Substitutions for Methylene Chloride
September 27, 2024 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
From the Lab Safety Institute:
Join our webinar on September 27th at 11:00 AM EST to explore the latest TSCA regulations on methylene chloride and their impact on lab practices. Learn practical strategies for substituting methylene chloride in research and school labs and discover effective methods for finding safer, green chemistry alternatives with our expert partners, Beyond Benign.
More about the Lab Safety Initiative’s Methylene Chloride Webinar Series:
This webinar series will focus on actionable steps to comply with the EPA TSCA final rule on methylene chloride. Walking through the hierarchy of controls, each installment will focus on a hazard control method (elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative, PPE) applicable to laboratory handling of this common reagent.
The webinar series will help participants:
- Meet the EPA TSCA regulatory requirements
- Provide guidance on selecting safer alternatives to methylene chloride
- Update processes to promote safety and minimize exposure by developing exposure control plans (ECPs)
- Offer practical strategies for managing exposure, implementing safety controls, and maintaining compliance documentation
Designed for anyone in academia or industry who uses methylene chloride, this webinar series offers essential strategies to navigate new regulatory landscapes and enhance laboratory safety culture.
