Ammonia Safety Measures

Ammonia is characterised by a sharp and pungent odour that acts as a warning sign of potentially dangerous exposure. The odour threshold for most people is around 5 ppm in the air, which is considered well below any dangerous level.However, if this sign is ignored, exposure to high levels over prolonged periods can result in serious health damage or even death. Full safety measures can be downloaded from the website.

Toxicity

When used safely, this compound is not usually a health concern for humans, as the body can activate certain metabolic processes to avoid its accumulation in the blood. Ammonia can be converted to carbamoyl phosphate, which is subsequently eliminated in the urine.However, fishes and reptiles do not have this mechanism, which means ammonia can be lethal for aquatic life, even at low concentrations. For this reason, ammonia is classed as dangerous for the environment.

Storage

As ammonia’s boiling point is -33°C, safe storage is essential to avoid any problems even at room temperature. In addition, containers with ammonium compounds should be kept separate from bases, as dangerous amounts of ammonia could be released in the reaction.

Household Uses of Ammonia

Solutions of ammonia around 5-10% can be used as cleaners, especially suitable for glass. However, even at low concentrations, these solutions can be irritant to the respiratory tract and skin. Again, safe storage is essential, particularly to avoid contact with bleach, which would generate a poisonous gas.
