Accidental release measures Personal precautions, Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. ELIMINATE all ignition protective equipment and sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate area). Do not emergency procedures: touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep upwind. Keep unauthorized personnel away. See Section 8 of the SDS for Personal Protective Equipment. Methods and material for In case of leakage, eliminate all ignition sources. Dike far ahead of larger containment and cleaning up: spill for later recovery and disposal. Pick up free liquid for recycle and/or disposal. Residual liquid can be absorbed on inert material. Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Environmental Precautions: Avoid release to the environment. Do not contaminate water sources or sewer. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. 7. Handling and storage Precautions for safe handling: DO NOT HEAT. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Obtain special instructions before use. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Use personal protective equipment as required.

Material controls: should be handled in enclosed vessels and equipment, in which case general (mechanical) room ventilation should be sufficient. Local exhaust ventilation should be used at points where dust, mist, vapors or gases can escape into the room air. Adequate ventilation should be provided so that exposure limits are not exceeded. Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment General information: Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. Supplementary local exhaust ventilation, closed systems, or respiratory and eye protection may be needed in special circumstances, such as poorly ventilated spaces, heating, evaporation of liquids from large surfaces, spraying of mists, mechanical generation of dusts, drying of solids, etc. Eye/face protection: Safety glasses. If potential for splash or mist exists, wear chemical goggles or faceshield. Skin Protection Hand Protection: Use nitrile or neoprene gloves. Use good industrial hygiene practices. In case of skin contact, wash hands and arms with soap and water. Chemical resistant gloves Other: Gloves, coveralls, apron, boots as necessary to minimize contact. Wear apron or protective clothing in case of contact. SDS_US - CATANOX® Premium Biodiesel Additive 5/15 Version 1.3 Revision date 02/02/2018 Respiratory Protection:

As entrepreneurs and business leaders representing thousands of employees, we have followed signals from this Administration and invested billions of dollars in developing a U.S. biodiesel industry that has successfully delivered more than 5 billion gallons of EPA-designated Advanced Biofuel under the RFS since you took office. We are extremely concerned that you could be retreating on your previously unwavering support for biodiesel in a way that would have severe consequences for the industry’s future. Specifically, we want to state as clearly as we can that a decision to finalize a biodiesel volume of 1.28 billion gallons, as initially proposed by the EPA in November, would result in a sharp drop in production that would cause layoffs and plant closures, while sending a devastating signal that the Administration has thrown in the towel on its support for biodiesel. Until this proposal was released by the EPA last year, that support was resolute.
