10. Storage Precautions for safe handling
No special precautions should be necessary. Avoid the generation of airborne dust. Provide sufficient ventilation at places where airborne dust is generated and wear a prescribed dust mask. The appropriate precautions as detailed in the SDS data sheet for AFM ® must be observed.
Conditions for safe storage
Store in a cool( room temperature), dry place. AFM ® may be stored outside immediately prior to filling the filters. However, if it is stored outside for a protracted period it should be protected from the elements by covering with a tarpaulin. The AFM ® should also be stored in a secure location and protected from any intruder interference and contamination by any animals. Sunlight will not affect AFM ®, however the polythene bags may suffer UV damage and the plastic will degrade, avoid storage out-side for long period of time unless protected from UV radiation.
11. Disposal of waste and spillage
AFM ® is inert and may be sent to an approved solid waste disposal or landfill site for disposal. AFM ® is a circular economy product and should ideally not be sent to landfill.
AFM ® will last for the life of the filtration system and should never need to be replaced. However, if AFM ® is removed from the filters due to decommissioning of the filter, it may be returned to Dryden Aqua. The media should be analysed prior to returning to Dryden Aqua to ensure there has been no contamination.
