What’s a Non-flammable Non-toxic Gas?
A non-flammable non-toxic gas is chemically stable, does not readily ignite, and does not pose significant toxicity risks when released. These gases are considered safe for transportation, handling, and storage under specific conditions and are classified as Class 2.2 dangerous goods according to the United Nations Dangerous Goods Classification.
While these gases are not considered hazardous in terms of flammability or toxicity, they still require proper packaging and labeling to prevent leaks, ensure safe handling, and provide information about the contents. Transporting non-flammable non-toxic gases involves compliance with regulations governing packaging, labeling, documentation, and vehicle requirements. Proper security and ventilation are also important.
