Hazard statements
Dust causes respiratory, skin, and eye irritation. Prolonged or repeated inhalation or ingestion can cause irritation of mucous membranes. Wet activated carbon removes oxygen from air causing a severe hazard to workers in enclosed or confined space.

Avoid generation of dust during handling. The dust may be more susceptible to catalytic reaction than the large mesh product. Avoid breathing dust. Wash thoroughly after handling. Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid release to environment. IF INHALED: Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Seek medical attention for any breathing difficulty. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. IF IN CONTACT WITH SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing. Rinse cautiously with soap and water for several minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. IF INGESTED: Drink a large volume of water; seek medical attention.
