Disposing of hazardous waste, including Class 6 poisons, is critical to following federal and state regulations, and keeping the public and environment safe. The U.S. Department of Transportation, EPA and the California DTSC prohibit this type of hazardous waste from being disposed of as normal waste.

Improper handling of lithium batteries is a high risk. Deep discharge, fire, chemical reaction, even explosion - all are dangerous for employees, business operations, and the environment. We have over 30 years of experience providing storage for hazardous materials - you can be confident in the solutions we provide.

To avoid thermal runaway and subsequent fire risk, lithium-ion batteries must be stored and charged in the correct conditions. Hot air should be vented constantly to prevent overheating. Integrated ventilation is essential as it removes any heated air generated. The gases from thermal runaway and lithium-ion fires are highly toxic.

DENIOS Lithium-ion cabinets are tested according to EN-14470-1 and give 90 minutes of fire protection from outside to inside and 90 minutes of fire resistance from inside to out. Our product range offers safety cabinets for storing and charging your lithium batteries.

Ordinary fire-rated cabinets are designed to withstand fires that start on the outside. These cabinets will not withstand a fire with lithium-ion batteries beginning from within. This is an important distinction. You should ensure all storage cabinets for lithium-ion batteries are rated for fires starting from inside the cabinet. Without this, the protection is inadequate. The cabinet must withstand an internal fire for at least 90 minutes; it must be tested and approved to SS-EN-1363-1 for internal fire.

Lithium-ion battery-powered bikes, tools, and other electronics are often used during the day and charged at night. This explains why most fires occur at night. Make sure you have a cabinet that has a proper alarm system that is wired with electronic controls, including a potential-free alarm contact for building control. There are different alarm modules where alarm indication can be via an overall alarm system or SMS. A unique fire suppression system inhibits the development of the fire and gives those in the surroundings time to react and take action.

If the storage cabinet is likely to be used as a charging station, it should be built explicitly for this purpose and include all the critical safety measures that are needed for this from the outset. It can be more expensive and dangerous to connect charging facilities yourself at a later stage. A purpose-built lithium-ion cabinet has high-specification features, including metal-encased and grounded electrical outlets. The socket strip should be ready for use and mounted on the rear wall of the cabinet.

As a global company, DENIOS has been working for several years to get a comprehensive picture of how different countries, insurance companies, and authorities view lithium-ion batteries in particular. Based on the patterns they see, recommendations are then made to prevent the problems rather than waiting for incidents to occur with tightened legal requirements as a result. As a result of this work, DENIOS is the first to have a certified secure storage solution.

Poisons are a broad category of hazardous toxic materials that can cause serious health issues or death in humans. Class 6 poisons, in particular, include two subdivisions:

Regulations are not keeping up with the safety needs for safe lithium battery storage. However, insurance companies are quickly realising how critical this is.

While most hazardous waste generators are aware that they have responsibilities to safely dispose of their waste, many fail to realize there are “complete” cradle to grave requirements they must follow. To stay in compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), generators are responsible for the hazardous waste they produce from its initial generation, its transportation and to its final disposal.

Place the cabinet near an exit so it can be easily moved outside in case of a fire inside the cabinet. Purpose-built lithium-ion battery storage cabinets are heavy, about 500 kg, so make sure you have a cabinet with an integrated base to evacuate the cabinet with a forklift, both in case of a fire and if the cabinet needs to be moved for other reasons. If you have a cabinet without a base, which is directly on the ground, you cannot evacuate or move the cabinet without a great deal of difficulty.

Your storage should maintain a constant temperature, protect against moisture, offer safe charging, and protect against mechanical damage.

Because poisonous or toxic materials may be an everyday reality at your business, proper hazardous waste removal and disposal should be a top priority for you.

All poisons should be stored to meet federal guidelines enforced by the Department of Transportation. Shipping requirements when transporting these hazardous materials, may include:

Poisons should be transported to a waste disposal facility, where they are processed by certified waste disposal professionals.

Division 6.2 includes infectious substances, which means they are a material that can contain a pathogen. Pathogens can include bacteria, viruses, fungi or other infectious substances.

Lithium energy storage devices or products with built-in lithium batteries, such as domestic appliances, tools, or electric vehicles, have to be thoroughly tested before they are approved for sale. The planning of a safe test environment must take many aspects into account. For this reason, lithium test rooms are almost always designed to customer-specific specifications.

Improper disposal of hazardous waste can take many different forms. One of the most basic and common forms of improper waste disposal for poisonous materials is failing to store and label the waste.

The market is exploding with battery cabinets, and sometimes, suppliers are moving too fast. Therefore, it is essential to carefully check what certificates are available and how long the cabinet can withstand a fire. Ask verification questions of suppliers so that you are fully protected. To be sure, request documentation and certificates of tests and approvals carried out.

There are three kinds of toxicity that are often used to describe Division 6.1 substances that can help to identify a poison:

Businesses in a wide range of industries and fields work with poisonous substances on a daily basis to produce products that help people live better lives.

That’s because exposure to Class 6 poisons can result in serious illnesses, infectious diseases, traumatic injuries and even death. It is important to limit your organization’s liability and expenses in the event of a hazardous waste exposure.
