| 摘要： | As Rob Symes states: "DGSAs are not chemists." He is a chemist, as well as managing director of The Hazchem Network, the UK's only ADR pallet network. With a background ranging across the chemical industry, Symes was also HSEQ director for chemical specialist 3PL HW Coates for many years, so has first-hand experience of what is needed for the safe storage and transport of hazardous substances. "There's a bit of a misconception that as soon as someone passes their DGSA course, they're suddenly an expert on all things chemical," he says. "That's not the case - ADR is written specifically so people don't have to be chemists." That's why ADR uses UN numbers rather than chemical names. "If there's an emergency on the road, a driver ringing 999 can read out a four-digit number much more easily than an unpronounceable 30-letter chemical name." (Those numbers were digitally removed in the image above.) |
