Handling and Storage in Food Processing Facilities

Acetone is a highly flammable solvent that requires strict handling protocols, particularly in food processing environments where additional regulatory standards apply. Follow these guidelines:

  • Review the SDS thoroughly before introducing acetone into any area of your facility
  • Wear appropriate PPE including chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, and respiratory protection in poorly ventilated spaces
  • Store in a dedicated flammable liquids cabinet or approved storage area, away from heat sources, ignition points, and incompatible materials
  • Keep containers sealed when not actively dispensing to minimize vapor release and evaporation loss
  • Ensure adequate ventilation in all areas where acetone is used — vapor accumulation presents both health and fire hazards
  • Maintain separation from oxidizing agents, acids, and other incompatible chemicals per SDS guidance
  • Follow all applicable OSHA, EPA, and local regulations governing solvent use, storage, and disposal in food processing operations
