Simplifying Everyday Hazmat Calls with Advanced Technology

Join us for a conversation with Phil Ambrose about how advanced technologies like Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and High Pressure Mass Spectrometry (HPMS) can simplify your life when responding to everyday hazmat calls. The discussion will be moderated by Dr. Mark Norman and will cover everything from simple CO and odor calls to complex incidents involving multiple chemical products. Specific scenarios will be presented to illustrate how basic and advanced technologies are most effectively used together in chemical response. Whether you are a first due engine company taking basic gas detectors downrange or a dedicated hazmat team with numerous capabilities at your disposal, you will learn how incorporating FTIR and HPMS into your protocols could expedite your responses. Recon operators and incident commanders alike will gain an understanding of how important such technologies can be to ensure the safety of the responders, the public, and the property for which they are responsible.
