August 2022 CHAS Technical Program
Sunday, August 21, 2022 08:00am – 11:40am CDT Safety Across the Chemical Disciplines Marta Gmurczyk, Organizer, Presider; Dr. Daniel R. Kuespert, CSP, Organizer, Presider Safety is a common theme across most chemical disciplines, but hazards deemed common in one field may be opaque to other researchers. Interdisciplinary research brings with it risks associated with several intersecting disciplines, and researchers trained in one speciality will not necessarily be familiar with all the relevant risks. What hazards are recognized in their research field? What hazard control challenges present themselves? Where are the high risks that have been accepted as “normal?” This symposium draws together representatives of many chemical disciplines to share their safety knowledge and challenges 3737607 – Blueprint thinking to build sustainable solutions on the solid foundation of safety; Kalyani Martinelango, Presenter; Jason Fisk 3743933 – Hazard identification and mitigation in a multidisciplinary industrial research environment, George Athens, Presenter; Jeff Foisel; Steve Horsch 3741150 – Safety in the catalysis research lab, Mark Bachrach, Presenter 3754630 – Risk, safety, and troublesome territoriality: Bridging interdisciplinary divides, John G Palmer, PhD, Presenter; Brenda Palmer 3751492 – Risk-based safety education fosters sustainable chemistry education, Georgia Arbuckle-Keil, Presenter; David Finster; Ms. Samuella Sigmann, MS, CCHO; Weslene Tallmadge; Rachel Bocwinski; Marta Gmurczyk 02:00pm – 04:05pm … August 2022 CHAS Technical ProgramRead more
