carbon oxides

Advice for fire-fighters

Special protective equipment:
Appropriate breathing apparatus may be required.

Further information:
Cool closed containers in the vicinity of the source of fire. Dispose of fire debris and contaminated
extinguishing water in accordance with official regulations. Collect contaminated extinguishing water
separately, do not allow to reach sewage or effluent systems.

6. Accidental Release Measures
