HEALTH, SAFETY AND FIRST AIDDeicing/anti-icing fluid application may present health and safety issues to flight and gro

18、und personnel, as well as the passengers of the carrier. An effective training program should include the dangers, precautions and first aid associated with deicing/anti-icing fluid applications.3.1 Health- Caution should be used when using deicing/anti-icing fluids. Consult the fluid manufacturer d

19、ocumentation (Safety Data Sheets) to determine hazards of the fluid in use and the appropriate precautions to take.- Application equipment presents additional hazards, such as heating and pressurization of fluids. Consult the equipment manufacturer documentation to determine the hazards and the appr

20、opriate precautions to be taken.- Human Factors in Deicing Operations: Considerations should be given to factors such as, but not limited to, fatigue, lighting, labeling, special use fittings, memory aids and the effects of prolonged exposure to adverse weather. Special attention should be given to

21、communications in order to avoid injury to personnel or damage to aircraft.SAE INTERNATIONAL AS6286/5 Page 4 of 73.2 Safety- Aircraft may be damaged by indiscriminate application of deicing/anti-icing fluid or manual removal of contaminants. Areas on the aircraft that require special attention must

22、be identified to the deicing/anti-icing crew during the initial/recurrent training.- A slippery condition may exist on the ground or equipment following deicing/anti-icing procedure. Caution should be exercised particularly under low humidity or non-precipitation weather conditions.- Training on saf

ANNEX BACKGROUND INFORMATION4.1 GeneralSafety is an issue concerning everyone involved

25、. Operational safety, equipment safety, flight safety, personal safety andhealth etc. are elements that need to be checked and verified for proper procedures. Many companies and airlines havetheir own manuals regarding the subject and they should be followed. The airport may dictate general rules of

26、 conduct in emergency situations (and special cases) from an airport operations point of view and by the operators from a companypoint of view. Airport equipment needs to be qualified for every specific task accordingly and the personnel using them shall have the proper training and qualification fo

27、r its use. The airport is planned for aircraft operations, but there has to be a large amount of ground service equipment to fulfill all the tasks needed for an efficient and safe departure. All this “action”on the ground can lead to many “close encounters” and procedural training should be performe

28、d for the whole ground staff for each particular task and for the apron operation in general.SAE INTERNATIONAL AS6286/5 Page 5 of 74.2 Deicing FluidsMany different deicing/anti-icing fluids are in use all around the world. There are several fluid manufacturers that can provide certified fluids for t

29、he market. The composition of the fluid varies by region and by manufacturer and also depending onthe use of the glycol (aircraft deicing/anti-icing or apron, taxiway and runway deicers). Some compounds that can befound in use at airports and operators are propylene-, ethylene- and di-ethylene glyco

30、l, urea, potassium acetate, calcium magnesium acetate, sodium acetate, sodium formate, chlorides and isopropyl alcohol. Propylene- and ethylene glycol are perhaps the most common in use and known for aircraft deicing/anti-icing.For aircraft deicing/anti-icing operations, Type I, Type II, Type III, a

31、nd Type IV are used to identify different deicing and anti-icing fluids and their specific application. These fluids are diluted to some extent with water. Additives are used in the fluid to make it serve a specific task. These additives can be as an example:a. Surfactants (wetting agents)b. Corrosi

32、on inhibitorsc. Flame-retardantd. pH bufferse. Dyesf. Complex Polymers (Thickening Agents)The major components are glycol and water. Additives comprise approximately 1% - 2% (Type I and Type II/III/IVrespectively) of the fluids. All fluids are required to meet certain standards (AMS1424 and AMS1428)

33、. These fluidswould be unable (or restrictively) to meet SAE standards without additives.Glycols are tested for environmental impact and for operational use. Some of these tests may include:a. Mammal toxicityb. Aquatic Toxicityc. Acute oral toxicityd. Acute inhalation toxicitye. Acute dermal toxicit

34、yf. Irritant effect on sking. Irritant effect on eyesh. Sensitizationi. MutagenicityEven if glycols are found to have low toxicity proper precautions should be taken. Pure glycols have been tested and results concluded but additives are considered a trade secret so all aspects have not been tested w

35、hen it comes to aircraft deicing/anti-icing fluids. Ethylene- and propylene- glycol compounds are found/used among others in food, make-up products, paint, lacquer, automotive antifreeze etc. Irritation and vapors etc. has not been found to be toxic. Oralingestion is in general toxic for ethylene gl

36、ycol but propylene glycol has not been found to be toxic, but with largequantities it can reach a dangerous level. In normal operational use, ingesting glycol orally should not be possible (excluding some drops from splashing). Consult the specific material safety data sheet (SDS) received from the

37、fluid manufacturerfor proper safety procedures.SAE INTERNATIONAL AS6286/5 Page 6 of 74.3 Personal Health and SafetyDeicing operations is many times subjected to harsh elements. There are cold temperatures, wind, some sort ofprecipitation, loud noises from aircraft engines/APU, jet blast, marginal su

38、nlight/airport lighting at wintertime, maneuvering a large deicing vehicle in narrow areas between aircraft and the deicing spraying itself. Despite all of these items (andothers) the deicing operation can be performed safely and efficiently with the proper training, equipment and safetygear. Deicin

39、g vehicles are basically divided into open-basket and closed-basket deicers. A closed-basket protects thedeicing operator from many of the mentioned elements but if there are procedures performed outside the vehicle, proper safety gear should be used.When deicing from an open-basket the deicing oper

40、ator is also subjected to glycol mist (among the rest mentionedearlier) while spraying and proper protective clothes and gear should be used. Rubber gloves, water proof clothing,water proof shoes (proper footwear), hearing protector and safety harness are items that should be used for sufficientprot

41、ection under such conditions. Sufficient washing of hands, neck and face (any areas subjected to outside elements)should be remembered in order to minimize any possible skin irritation caused by glycols. Hearing protectors are very important because of the high amount of noise at the apron. Noises b

42、etween 80-100 decibel are quite ordinary, but even 120 decibels can be experienced at times. The noise experienced over time (work period) should also be considered.4.4 Operational SafetyOperational safety includes the proper performance of deicing operations around/close to aircraft, equipment and

43、deicing fluid filling station procedures, airport operations in general, knowledge of aircraft movements at the apron, danger of jet blast etc. These subjects should be covered during training and there should be a clear procedure of operation relating to these items. The deicing vehicle should be c

44、hecked for proper condition before use. Items such as fire extinguisher,boom emergency lowering, emergency stop buttons, work lights, the chassis in general, fluid filling ports, engine area, manuals, communication equipment, safety gear and fluids (among others) should be in correct condition and a

45、vailable.Slippery conditions can exist on the ground and on the equipment surface following the deicing/anti-icing procedure.Caution should be exercised, particularly under low humidity or non-precipitating weather conditions due to increased slipperiness following the use of glycol that is not dilu

46、ted by the weather element.The operation around aircraft can be subjected to many dangerous elements such as noise, jet blast (and suction), turningpropellers, moving aircraft, low visibility etc. The procedure for each situation must be clear and proper training shouldbe received. The deicing opera

47、tion can be performed at gate (or after pushback) at some airports and this limits thedanger caused by running engines and moving aircraft. Centralized/remote deicing has its own procedure and theproper operation must be clear for all involved (flight crew and ground crew). Jet blast is very dangero

48、us if subjected to it at close range (“close range” can be a relative term, but the distance should refer to idle and brake-off thrust). Not onlythe main engines but also the blast from the APU can be dangerous when operating in an open-basket. Driving behindjet blast should be avoided at all times

49、and the deicing procedure around the aircraft should be planned accordingly. Theengine inlet also causes a threat due to the suction force and this area should be avoided as well.Communication is an important part of the procedure (especially during centralized/remote operation) to verify a safe andcorrect operation. No misleading comments shall be spoken and unclear issues shall be verified. The airport usually gives out the lim
