- Understand Regulatory Requirements: Equip participants with a thorough understanding of the new EPA and OSHA regulations concerning methylene chloride, and how these affect laboratory safety protocols.
- Monitor Exposures and Exposure Groups: Provide methodologies for monitoring methylene chloride exposures, identifying exposure groups, and implementing appropriate control measures with proper documentation.
- Develop and Update Safety Documentation and ECP: Guide participants through the process of developing Exposure Control Plans (ECP) to reflect current safety standards and regulatory requirements. This includes adjustments to SOP, CHP addendums, and hazard communication to any persons exposed.
- Engage with Experts: Facilitate conversations with subject matter experts to help participants address specific concerns, share best practices, and ensure ongoing compliance with safety regulations.

Displaying 1 - 12 of 17Featuring Tim Barton, Chief Safety Officer, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, LSI Board PresidentThis webinar aims to provide a comprehensive guide for academic and research institutions on how to align with the latest EPA and OSHA regulations for methylene chloride. Participants will gain a thorough understanding of the new regulatory requirements and learn effective methodologies for monitoring exposures and identifying exposure groups. The workshop will guide attendees through the process of developing Exposure Control Plans (ECP) to ensure compliance with current safety standards, including adjustments to Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP) addendums, and hazard communication.Additionally, through expert-led discussions and interactive sessions, participants will have the opportunity to engage with subject matter experts, addressing specific concerns and sharing best practices to maintain a safe and compliant environment for handling methylene chloride.0.4 CEUs available.Workshop Goals:

In the EU Interreg project ECHT, actors along the textile value chain (H&M, LIST, Inditex, Puma, Team2, etc.) are convinced that the traceability of chemicals in their products is an essential prerequisite for meeting the objectives of the Sustainable Textiles Strategy. As part of the project, roadmaps for the implementation of chemicals traceability in the industry will be developed – complemented by a policy action plan.For this reason, together with the German Federal Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt), the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences is organizing a one-day event dedicated to this topic. Based on the project results from ECHT and expert contributions from the textile value chains and NGOs, the event aims to promote an active exchange with relevant stakeholders from industry and policy-makers.After briefly presenting interesting insights and intermediate results from the ECHT project including the development of two potential future scenarios as well as a Theory of Change, the event addresses important issues such as:
- How do we overcome barriers that block the path to chemicals traceability?
- How can chemicals traceability requirements be reconciled with legitimate confidentiality requirements?
- How can stakeholders at the end of the life cycle benefit from full traceability of the chemicals contained in products?
- How can chemicals traceability be applied through global value chains?

The conference, themed ‘Green Chemistry for Carbon Neutrality and Sustainable Development’, aims to bring together relevant stakeholders from academia, research, industry, NGOs, policy makers, and society to exchange information and share ideas to promote green chemistry, carbon neutrality, and sustainable development. In addition to plenary lectures, there will be parallel sessions with invited lectures, oral and poster sessions with researchers in various stages of their careers, from students to senior researchers, discussing a range of important and timely topics.The 10th IUPAC ICGC is co-organized by the Chinese Chemical Society, Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and IUPAC Interdivisional Committee on Green Chemistry for Sustainable Development (ICGCSD). The ICGC series was first held in Germany (2006), followed by Russia (2008), Canada (2010), Brazil (2012), South Africa (2014), Italy (2016), Russia (2017), Thailand (2018), and Greece (2022). We are honored to be hosting the 10th conference in 2024, and we look forward to meeting you in Beijing.
