degreasers. Because solvents do not
conduct electricity, they can be used
on electric motors and other parts
while the device is operating without
the risk of shock to personnel or
damage to machinery. Some solvents
are used as paint and varnish
removers. Many solvents carry
considerable health risks and attention
to the MSDS is important.
4. Soap and Detergents
Some of the oldest cleaners in use are
detergents and soaps, which contain
surfactants that reduce the surface
tension of water making them effective
cleaners. Soaps and detergents
emulsify fats, greases and oils. Soaps
and detergents are both water soluble,
but are not effective in hard water.
5. Alcohol
Although not as an effective cleaner as
solvents, alcohol provides a more
environmentally friendly cleaning
solution for cleaning precision and
electromechanical components.
Alcohol can be used as a cleaner on
optical instruments and printed circuit
boards.
6. Citrus Cleaners
Cleaners made from citrus are quickly
replacing acids, alkaline and solvent
cleaners because they are better for
the environment and safer to use.
Citrus cleaners are made from d-
Limonene, the oil extracted from the
peel of citrus fruit.

1. What are the aspects you have to consider during the maintenance operation?
The principle of first aid is immediate action, but it is essential that quick action
does not cause panic.
Any action taken needs to be careful and deliberate and the first-aider must
remain calm at all times.
The first priority is to yourself and to others - protect the scene after assessing
risk, and think before you act (there may be gas - risk of asphyxiation/explosion;
electricity - the pool of water round the faulty washing machine may be live; fire -
opening a hot door may be the last thing you do; assault - the assailant with knife
or gun may be behind the door awaiting their next victim or a hostage; blood -
avoid unnecessary contact with body fluids by wearing gloves).
Fractures and dislocations
Immobilise the affected area (especially the neck if there is any possibility of an
injury to the cervical spine).
Keep the patient still and support the injured area.
For arm fractures, a sling can be made to support and immobilise the affected
area.
Splints (any long firm object) can be used for support and immobilisations but,
ideally, splint the affected area to another part of the body when appropriate, e.g.
using one leg to splint the other leg.
For open fractures, control the bleeding with a sterile dressing and apply pressure

if required.
Burns
Superficial: only damage the outer layer of the skin; cause reddening of the skin.
Partial thickness: damage the epidermis layer of the skin; cause blistering.
Full thickness: damage all the layers of the skin and underlying tissue.
Treatment
Extinguish flames by water, extinguisher, or smothering.
Remove any continuing source of heat, removing non-adherent clothing/plastic.
Immediately submerge the affected part in cold water for at least 10 minutes (20
Nosebleeds
Only 10% of patients with epistaxis seek medical attention, and 80% of these have
anterior nose bleeds (from Little's area). See separate article Nosebleeds
(Epistaxis).
Use sterile disposable gloves, and face shield if possible (nasal bleeding is one of
the commonest emergencies to put medical staff at risk of blood contamination,
and the conjunctivae are potential sites for the transmission of HIV).
Get the casualty to sit down, lean slightly forward and pinch the fleshy part of the
nose, and push against the bony parts of the face. They should breathe through
their mouth, spitting out blood to avoid choking, and to aid assessment of control
of blood loss.
The pressure and posture should be maintained for at least 10 minutes but a
longer time may be required.
Ice packs to adjacent cheeks/face may be applied but there is conflicting evidence
of effectiveness.
Uncontrollable epistaxis and posterior epistaxis should be referred to hospital.
External bleeding
Use sterile disposable gloves, and face shield if possible.
Calm and reassure the patient.
Lay the patient down, to avoid fainting.
Check the wound for any foreign material; however, do not remove deeply
penetrating objects; rather, pad and try to immobilise them.
Apply firm direct pressure using a clean, folded cloth over the injured area. If
blood soaks through, do not remove it but cover that cloth with another one and
continue to apply pressure to the wound for 7-10 minutes.
Fainting
Faints are a sudden brief loss of consciousness followed by full recovery within two
minutes.
Treatment
Lay the casualty flat with their legs raised.
Loosen restrictive clothing around the neck, remembering over-zealousness in the
absence of witnesses could leave you open to an assault charge.

Check airway, breathing and pulse.
If the casualty has vomited, put in the recovery position to prevent choking.
There is usually a full recovery when laid flat. If this does not occur then further
expert medical help is required.
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to identify and perform
the common first aid procedures.

Treatment
Extinguish flames by water, extinguisher, or smothering.
Remove any continuing source of heat, removing non-adherent clothing/plastic.
Immediately submerge the affected part in cold water for at least 10 minutes (20
minutes for chemical burns).
Remove jewellery or release tight clothing that may act as tourniquet.
Cover with a clean, non-stick sterile dressing (cling-film or plastic bags may be
used).
DO NOT: break blisters or use any lotions or creams.
If electrical burn, actively seek other entry/exit wound.
Keep patient warm - do not let overzealous cooling of the burn exacerbate shock.
The patient should be seen by the practice nurse and/or doctor and, depending on
the severity of the burn, may need to be sent for treatment in hospital.
Nosebleeds
Only 10% of patients with epistaxis seek medical attention, and 80% of these have
anterior nose bleeds (from Little's area). See separate article Nosebleeds (Epistaxis).

Three Ways We Handle Solid Waste
1. Recycle
2. Incinerate
Wheelabrator Baltimore is a waste-to-energy plant in downtown
Baltimore that uses trash as a fuel to make electricity and steam.
Incoming trucks dump waste into a large pit. The trash is then
recycled into energy. A high pressure steam is recovered in the
process and it is used for heating or summer cooling (using chillers) in
downtown Baltimore. This process reduces the volume of incoming
garbage by 90 percent.
3. Landfill
Do you know the difference between a sanitary landfill and a
dump? You may think they are the same, but there is a big difference
between the two. Dumps, much more common many years ago, are
uncovered, unlined areas where people "dump" their trash. Dumps
gave off a smelly odor, attracted many unwanted bugs and animals,
and polluted the environment. Today's sanitary landfills are designed
to protect our environment and people. Years of preparation
