If a vehicle transporting chlorine cylinders or ton containers is disabled and there is any possibility of fire, the containers should be removed from the vehicle to a safe distance if possible. If a tank car or cargo tank trailer is disabled and chlorine is leaking, appropriate emergency procedures should be instituted in consultation with local authorities. Clearing of track or highway should not be started until safe working conditions are established. See Section 5.3 for action to take if a fire occurs. The specific actions taken by emergency responders will vary. Some items to consider acting upon are: Is it possible to safely turn the container so that gas instead of liquid escapes? The quantity of chlorine that escapes from a gas leak is much less than the amount that escapes from a liquid leak through the same size hole. Is it possible to safely reduce the pressure in the container by removing the chlorine as gas (not as liquid) to a process or a disposal system? (See Sections 5.6 and 5.7). Can the container be safely moved to an isolated spot where the consequences can be minimized? Is it possible to safely apply the appropriate Chlorine Institute Emergency Kit or place the cylinder in a recovery vessel designed to contain the leak? (See Section 5.8).PDF Image | Chlorine Basics 8
