Many gases have toxic properties, which are often assessed using the LC 50 (median lethal concentration) measure. In the United States, many of these gases have been assigned an NFPA 704 health rating of 4 (may be fatal) or 3 (may cause serious or permanent injury), and/or exposure limits (TLV, TWA/PEL, STEL, or REL) determined by the ACGIH professional association.
Toxic by inhalation liquid, corrosive, n.o.s. with an inhalation toxicity lower than or equal to 1000ml/m 3 and saturated vapour concentration greater than or equal to 10 LC 50 UN 3391 4.2
Division 2.3: Toxic Gas Gas poisonous by inhalation means a material which is a gas at 20 °C or less and a pressure of 101.3 kPa (a material which has a boiling point of 20 °C or less at 101.3kPa (14.7 psi)) and which: Is known to be so toxic to humans as to pose a hazard to health during transportation, or
This is the list of extremely hazardous substances defined in Section 302 of the U.S. Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (42 U.S.C. § 11002).The list can be found as an appendix to 40 CFR 355. [1]
Toxic gases – Gases which: are known to be so toxic or corrosive to humans as to pose a hazard to health; or; are presumed to be toxic or corrosive to humans because they have an LC 50 value equal to or less than 5000 ml/m 3 (ppm). e.g. hydrogen cyanide. Division 2.3
LNG is odorless, colorless, non-toxic and non-corrosive. Hazards include flammability after vaporization into a gaseous state, freezing and asphyxia. The liquefaction process involves removal of certain components, such as dust, acid gases, helium, water, and heavy hydrocarbons, which could cause difficulty downstream.
