SEAFORTH MOTORS PH®F-•141 CHEV –OLDS—SALES AND SERVICE MORE PEOPLE RIDE ON GOOD EAR TIRES THAN ON ANY OTHER KIND A3 Disposal of Fluorescent Lamp Tubes (Released by Ontario Department of Health) Fluorescent lamp tubes are coated on the inside with a fluorescent powder called a phosphor. This phosphor usually contains Beryllium in amounts ranging from a fraction of a per cent to approximately four per cent. The lamps may also con- tain minute amounts of mercury. • In 1948 two reports were published, in the United States describing noduses which appeared in the skin and underlying tissues of four persons who had been cut by pieces of glass from broken fluorescent tubes. In most of these cases the original wound was slow in healing. About two months after the injury, small nodules were noticed in the injured areas. Though only four cases have so far been reported, the widespread use of fluorescent tubes containing Beryllium phosphorus presents a prob- lem in the safe disposal of burned out lamps. To date, no cases, of the skin condition have been reported in Canada. Howevet, it is urged that all janitors, salvage employees, factory mainten- ance men, firemen, garbage collectors, incinerator operators, refuse dumpmen, and other groups who may be associated with the disposal of burned out tubes, be warned as to the hazards presented. The chief hazard occurring during disposal is that of cuts from pieces of broken glass. Where large numbers of tubes are being broken; •a possible hazard from the inhalation of Beryllium powder and of mercury vapour may occur. In the home, used tubes should be wrapped, intact, in paper, or placed in a cardboard tube and put in a rubbish container without breaking. They should not be disposed of In household incinerators, or placed within reach of children. In disposing of used tubes in industry, the following precautions should be taken: 1. Where only a few tubes. are being broken, it is recommended that they be disposed of by one of the following methods: (a) Place the tube in a burlap bag. Immerse in a trough or shallow tank. (Being buoyant, they will have to be weighted) ; break the tube with a metal bar or length of pipe. The wet bag and contents may then be removed intact and dumped, (b) In the open air, where the phosphor dust and any mer- cury vapour will be quickly dispersed, the tubes may be brok- en individually in their cardboard, jackets with a length of pipe. The operator should stand to windward, and wear goggles and 'heavy canvas or leather gloves. 2. (a) Where large numbers of tubes are being broken, the lamps may be broken out of doors, in a waste disposal area. The operator should be supplied with, and required to wear, a respirator approved by the U.S. Bureau of Mines for expo- sure to toxic dusts. Full protective goggles and heavy gloves should be worn, (b) Where it is necessary to break lamps within buildings, it should be done in an isolated room and in a hood, to,mini- mize the escape of dusts. Sufficient exhaust ventilation should be supplied to the hood to provide an air intake at the breath- ing level of at least 150 linear feet per minute. A grated floor under the hood is suggested, so that broken glass will drop into a hopper, where it can be wet down and removed. Goggles and heavy gloves should be worn. 3. Where an individual is cut by pieces of the broken glass, he should be referred immediately to a doctor for treatment. The physician should be informed of the nature of the glass which caused the injury. (Signed) DR. P. L. BRADY, Medical Officer of Health, Town of Seaforth.
