CHLORINE BASICS 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 CHLORINE BASICS The first Chlorine Manual was published by The Chlorine Institute in 1947. It was a comprehensive compilation of information to assist chlorine producers, packagers, and end users in the safe handling, storage, shipment, and use of chlorine. In the years since the original Chlorine Manual was published, the Institute has developed numerous documents that provide more detailed information on safe chlorine management. With Edition 7 of Pamphlet 1 (2008), the Chlorine Manual was renamed Chlorine Basics. This change reflected the fact that a single document could no longer adequately communicate the detailed information required to safely handle, store, transport, and use chlorine. This pamphlet remains a valued resource, providing basic information for general users and providing an overview and references to more detailed information in other publications available from The Chlorine Institute. The principal target audiences for this pamphlet are: Operations personnel – this is a primary resource document for this group, especially in small companies Engineering personnel – this is a roadmap to more detailed information in other pamphlets New employees – this is a good “primer” for new employee training and orientation, where the needs are the same as for operations personnel Users of Chlorine Institute Emergency Kits A, B, and C (since this document is included in each Kit) – the needs are the same as for operations personnel For more detailed information, an online catalog is available on the Chlorine Institute’s website – www.chlorineinstitute.org. 1.2 CHLORINE INSTITUTE STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM The Chlorine Institute (CI) exists to support the chlor-alkali industry and serve the public by fostering continuous improvements to safety and the protection of human health and the environment connected with the production, distribution, and use of chlorine, sodium and potassium hydroxides, and sodium hypochlorite; and the distribution and use of hydrogen chloride. This support extends to giving continued attention to the security of chlorine handling operations. Chlorine Institute members are committed to adopting CI safety and stewardship initiatives including pamphlets, checklists, and incident sharing that will assist members in achieving measurable improvement.
