In GB 15603, hazardous chemicals that are prohibited from being stored together must be kept separate
Thread Content
Definition of separated storage: A storage method in which, within a single building or the same area, partitions or walls are used to separate it from prohibited materials. Furthermore, in Table 1 of 6.2, the spacing requirement for storing prohibited items is “must not be stored in the same warehouse”. I’m confused. If storage together is not allowed, then why does the definition of \"stored separately\" refer to a method of storing prohibited materials separately within the same building or area? Please explain, experts
Additionally, I would like to ask whether all of the more than 2,000 hazardous chemicals from the 2015 version must be stored in a hazardous materials warehouse? If not, then which ones need to be stored in a hazardous materials warehouse? Factories often have a large amount of raw materials, as well as finished goods warehouses; in these warehouses, hazardous and non-hazardous materials may be stored together. Is such a storage method compliant with regulations? So if it complies with the regulations, does this warehouse count as a hazardous materials warehouse? Is it sufficient to just register with the public security authorities?

These are requirements applicable to common hazardous chemicals, with the specific details outlined in the appendix. 2. In the new draft for feedback, Table 1 is no longer included. 3. Regarding the substances prohibited here, one needs to refer to that table; many of them are not actually prohibited.
