Energy Saver Globe

MERCURY EXPOSURE!  BEWARE!

This image has showing the energy saver globe fused at the home of the person. He did not wait for the globe to cool down, standing on a chair with a piece of cloth and remove the energy saver globe. Due to the heat of the energy saver globe he dropped the globe. As the globe fell on the floor “explode” (brake). As he descends from the chair he stepped into the broken glass and exposed mercury powder.

The person was admitted to hospital for treatment of the cuts. He spent two weeks in ICU and at one stage it was feared that his foot need to be amputated. Currently his foot is connected to a vacuum pump to remove continuously dead tissue. Long road of recovery is awaiting him.  

So that, we must pay special attention to the following things:-

 ☺When the bulb is bad, must wait for it to cool before removal, this can avoid accidentally smashes the bulb boiled.

☺If so, do not accidentally smashes the bulb, everyone must immediately leave the scene of at least 15 minutes, in particular, be careful not to step on debris, broken light bulbs have mercury released cuts caused by mercury poisoning. If inhaled harm the nervous system, spread to the systemic effects of health, can cause allergic and other skin lesions.


☺Do not cleared vacuum cleaner scene, the mercury through the vacuum cleaner exhaust spread to every corner of the house, causing more mercury pollution. We have to use broom to clear the shards of glass into the bag sealed tight and sent to the toxic processing center or the places that receiving the recovery of batteries discarded in order to avoid the mercury pollution of the environment.
