Abstract
Laboratory safety has been gaining increasing attention in Chinese universities in recent years. Robust laboratory designs will ensure the safety of personnel, instruments, and the environment. This Case Study shares the experiences and lessons learnt from the design and reconstruction of an organic analysis laboratory in Shenzhen University. The following aspects are discussed: (1) the layout of the laboratory; (2) ventilation, electricity, gas, and humidity control; (3) fire-fighting and emergency facilities; (4) chemical storage; and (5) waste management.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Health and Safety focuses on news, information, and ideas relating to issues and advances in chemical health and safety. The Journal of Chemical Health and Safety covers up-to-the minute, in-depth views of safety issues ranging from OSHA and EPA regulations to the safe handling of hazardous waste, from the latest innovations in effective chemical hygiene practices to the courts'' most recent rulings on safety-related lawsuits. The Journal of Chemical Health and Safety presents real-world information that health, safety and environmental professionals and others responsible for the safety of their workplaces can put to use right away, identifying potential and developing safety concerns before they do real harm.
