  • Tom: We prefer a gas leak to a liquid leak, because the liquid is 400 times more concentrated. So the recommended approach is to rotate the container so that the leak is on the top. This ensures that gas -- the less dense form -- will leak, instead of liquid. If that doesn't clear it up for you, please e-mail me at [email protected]
  • How should chlorine containers be moved and stored? Horizontal or vertical?

    On the question about addressing a chlorine leak, I thought it was backwards as far as rotating the container. I thought if you rotate the container to where "liquid" comes out then you diminish the ppm by 400 times. This is what we were told in a training session. When cl2 liquid becomes gas it multiplies to 400 times the ppm of a liquid. Could you clear this up as to which procedure is correct? Thanks in advance.
