Can Liquid Nitrogen Tank Be Placed In The Laboratory

Liquid nitrogen tank for laboratories are not classified as dangerous goods. However, liquid nitrogen stored in the container is cold, and skin contact with liquid nitrogen can cause frostbite. If there is excessive nitrogen vaporization under atmospheric pressure, the partial pressure of oxygen in the air will drop, causing anoxic asphyxia.

Skin contact: If you have frostbite, seek medical attention.

Inhalation: quickly from the scene to fresh air, keep breathing smooth. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing stops, give artificial respiration immediately and seek medical attention.

Therefore, due to the long-term exposure and use of liquid nitrogen tanks, laboratory staff should be able to solve the characteristics of liquid nitrogen and use liquid nitrogen tanks correctly to prevent accidents.
