Oxygen injection increases the heat available in the furnace for melting by reducing the heat loss due to hot nitrogen in the flue gas. Oxy-fuel combustion for secondary aluminum melting provides many benefits compared to conventional air/fuel combustion. These benefits include: Increased flame temperature Increased productivity Reduction in flue gas Fuel savings  The reduction in the flue gas volume and particulate material entrainment with oxy-fuel combustion greatly reduces the cost and complexity of off-gas cleaning systems.

[ BOC raises the bar with new F3VIPR cylinder range delivering ultimate convenience and portability for welding industry News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC raises the bar with new F3VIPR cylinder range delivering ultimate convenience and portability for welding industry Press Releases Leading gases and engineering company BOC today announced its latest innovation for the welding industry with the launch of the new F3VIPR, 33 litre high pressure cylinder with in-built variable integrated pressure regulator (VIPR).   Kyle Scott, Business Manager Specialised Manufacturing, said BOC’s technical experts are committed to raising the bar in cylinder technology and are proud to be delivering unique design features that provide enhanced convenience and safety for its customers.   “The F3VIPR range provides busy welders and manufacturers with an all-in-one cylinder solution that improves productivity by eliminating hassles associated with acquiring, fitting and maintaining a separate regulator. Usage can also be tracked with a content indicator showing the amount of gas left.   “With safety as our number one priority, we have enhanced portability by making the F3VIPR shorter than a G or G2 cylinder, with a handle to assist with trundling, allowing for better manoeuvrability around workshops and sites.   “The 300 bar high pressure has also allowed us to increase gas content in most F3VIPR shielding gas traffics compared to existing G size cylinders with up to 13 percent content increase on our 065G ARGOSHIELD® Universal.”   BOC has invested significantly in upgrading its cylinder fleet with more than 550,000 new cylinders introduced over the past five years and has a $15 million world leading cylinder testing facility at its Sydney Operations Centre.   The F3VIPR is now available in 18 of BOC’s ARGOSHIELD®, STAINSHIELD®, ALUSHIELD® and Argon gas mixtures and is compatible with a Standard 5/8” fitting, which means it will work with existing hoses and connections.

In the workshop there are a number of hazards specific to welding or cutting and others, of a more general nature, which may also be present in the fabrication environment. Did You Know? There are many different types of potential hazards in welding and thermal cutting processes. Everyone involved should be aware of what these hazards are. Welding and cutting processes are safe, and the risks from the hazards can be reduced, if they are carried out correctly and with care. Potential hazards need to be identified, measured where appropriate, and assessed, and remedial measures put in place wherever necessary. Although Personal Protective Equipment, PPE, should not be issued as the primary method of reducing a hazard it should be issued to all personnel if beneficial. Employers and employees should be made fully aware of the dangers that can arise and take all reasonable care to ensure the health and safety of all.   Types of Hazards The hazards encountered in welding and cutting may be sub-divided into groups as follows: Electrical Magnetic Fields Compressed Gases Fuel Gases Inert Gases Cryogenic Gases Radiation Heat, Flames, Fire and Explosion Welding Fume and Gases Noise Material and Manual Handling Confined Spaces Thoriated Electodes Solvents Downloads Electrical safety single phase equipment A3 poster(PDF 2.0 MB) ]

[ Frequently asked questions Supply and Service Supply Options Supply Channels Services Application Technology Centres ACCURA gas cylinder management Cylinder Upgrades Frequently Asked Questions EVOS VIPR F3VIPR Cylinder G3VIPR Cylinder Safety Training Frequently asked questions Here you can find answers to some commonly asked questions. Raise The Bar - Cylinder Upgrades Click on a question below to view the answer Why is BOC introducing this new cylinder? BOC is introducing new cylinders in response to customer demand. They are a lightweight steel cylinder (compared to other high pressure cylinders) manufactured to international standards, and can be filled to a higher pressure and content than our older cylinders. This means that at a constant flow rate the new high pressure cylinder lasts longer than the older cylinders. Why are these new cylinders better? These cylinders have several features that differentiate them from the older, lower pressure cylinders. Firstly, the newer cylinders can be filled to a much higher pressure. This means there will be more gas in each cylinder. As such, your new cylinder will last longer, meaning reduced downtime for you so you can keep doing what you do for longer. A large majority of these new cylinders have been fitted with side outlet complex valves. A complex valve features a non-return and minimum pressure retaining device. This device helps stop backflow and corrosion. These features assist BOC to continue to provide you with high quality industrial gases. What about the safety testing on existing cylinders? These new cylinders form part of BOC’s commitment to continuous improvement and will be introduced into other products in coming years. BOC is committed to providing a high quality and safe products to our customers. We conduct regular testing on all our products to ensure that they meet or better the specified quality. All BOC’s cylinders are visually checked each time they are filled to ensure that they are safe and in good condition. Will this new cylinder cost me more? For the new cylinders, the price of the gas per m3 will stay the same. As there is more gas in each cylinder, total price for gas in a cylinder will increase (unless there is no change in the cylinder volume, then the total price for gas in a cylinder will remain the same). Other charges including handling, delivery and container service charges will remain the same as the original cylinder. This is despite the significant investment BOC is making in these new cylinders. For example, the container service charge for a new D2 cylinder will remain the same as the schedule price of an old D sized cylinder.   Please note: cylinder charges and gas pricing are subject to review. Can I opt out of getting the new cylinders? No. In order to raise the bar, BOC will be replacing the older cylinders with new cylinders. The older cylinders will be condemned and will not be available in products which have been upgraded. Is my regulator compatible with the new cylinders? Regulators manufactured to Australian Standard AS 4267-1995 can be safely used with the new high pressure cylinders. Regulators marked/stamped with AS 4267 comply. If your valve has been tampered with or modified then BOC cannot tell whether or not a regulator complies with AS 4267-1995, even if it is properly marked. If you suspect that your valve has been tampered with or modified, you should not use it. BOC recommends that you use one of the following regulators: Product Code Product Outlet Recommended regulator 060E2 Argoshield Light (E size) side BOC 6000 Argon Regulator 061D2 Industrial Argon (D size) 060D2 Argoshield Light (D size) 070G2 Argoshield 52 (G size) 061G2 Industrial Argon (G size) top BOC 6000 Argon Shielding Gas Regulator 020D2 Industrial Oxygen (D size)   side BOC 8000 Single Stage Oxygen Regulator 020E2 Industrial  Oxygen (E size)  220G2  Ultra High Purity  Helium (G size)  top Baseline Single Stage Brass C 106/1-50-4S-T10   Baseline Single Stage Brass C 106/1-150-45-T10   Baseline Dual Stage Brass C 106/2-50-4S-T10   Baseline Dual Stage Brass C 106/2-150-4S-T10 How do I identify the new cylinders? Your new cylinder can be identified by the addition of a ‘2’ next to the cylinder size listed on the shoulder label. For example, a G sized cylinder will become a G2 sized cylinder, E will become E2 and so on. The new cylinders may also have a ‘New Product’ neck tag or shoulder sticker.

Since becoming Redkite’s first corporate sponsor, BOC has helped the organisation grow into a leading provider of essential support services for young people with cancer and their families – from the moment of diagnosis until after treatment finishes. Jenni Seton, Chief Executive Officer at Redkite said BOC and its staff have shown unwavering support and generosity which has helped thousands of families facing cancer.   “BOC was Redkite’s very first corporate partner, and over twenty generous years, they have had a huge impact on generations of families facing childhood cancer. “BOC has been a pioneer in staff engagement and fundraising activities through their innovative KiteTime program. As an organisation, their enthusiasm for building community and looking after families who are really doing it tough has been infectious.  “It was BOC who helped Redkite set up a presence in Queensland in 2001. Before this, we didn’t have the resources to help Queensland families. They have also supported many of our flagship fundraising activities including our annual corporate quizzes and education programs. “BOC’s unstinting support and generosity has helped Redkite become the organisation we are today, and we can’t thank them enough.” John Evans, BOC South Pacific Managing Director, said BOC is proud to have supported Redkite for the past 20 years through many different volunteering and company fundraising activities.  “The success of this partnership has been driven by the passion of the Redkite team who provide critical support to children and families every day – as well as the commitment shown by BOC employees across Australia to support this very important cause.  “There have been many highlights, however as the Principal Sponsor of the Redkite Corporate Quiz, it has been incredibly rewarding to be a part of this annual activity that has raised over $10 million. “We are also very grateful to our many BOC employees who have participated in Kitetime, a workplace initiative that encourages them to take annual leave and donate the pay from these hours to Redkite – as well as the many fun runs, competitions and fundraising efforts.” Further enquiries: Further enquiries: Suzanne Gibbs Head of Communications, RSP Email: suzanne.gibbs@boc.com Email ]

[ BOC to build carbon dioxide facility in Victoria News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC to build carbon dioxide facility in Victoria Press Releases Leading gas and engineering company BOC, a Linde company, today announced it will build a multi-million dollar carbon dioxide processing facility in Longford, Victoria as part of a new long-term CO2 supply agreement with the Gippsland Basin Joint Venture.  The new facility will have the capacity to produce more than 60,000 tonnes of beverage-grade liquid CO2 annually, making it the largest merchant CO2 production facility in the South Pacific. It will significantly increase long-term CO2 reliability and supply for many Australian industries.   The Gippsland Basin Joint Venture is a 50-50 joint venture between Esso Australia Resources Pty Ltd (Esso) and Woodside Energy Pty Ltd. Under the agreement, the Gippsland Basin Joint Venture will capture and send CO2 from its Longford Gas Conditioning Plant directly to BOC’s new facility.  John Evans, Managing Director of BOC South Pacific said the new facility would increase BOC’s capacity to supply the highest standard of carbon dioxide to customers in Australia and New Zealand.  “BOC is building new infrastructure to ensure long-term supply security of an essential gas used in many industries including food processing and packaging, beverage, hospitality, desalination, medical, manufacturing and water treatment,” said Mr Evans.  “This significant investment is part of our commitment to develop local supply partnerships and expand our production capability to meet the future needs of our customers and support growth across the South Pacific Region.  “With the latest technologies and processes in quality control and efficiency, BOC’s new CO2 facility will exceed internationally recognised food and beverage standards.” Esso Australia Chairman Dylan Pugh said the agreement demonstrates how Esso is taking a leading role in decarbonising its operations while still providing products that are essential for everyday life. “Through this partnership with BOC, we will transform what is effectively a waste stream into a product of beneficial use for Australian businesses in the food, beverage, hospitality, manufacturing and medical industries,” said Mr Pugh.   “Esso has a long history of providing reliable energy to Australia, whether it’s powering industry, heating our homes, or fuelling our barbecues, and this partnership will also see Gippsland put the fizz in our drinks.” Woodside Energy Executive Vice President Marketing and Trading Mark Abbotsford said the new agreement was a great example of how businesses can work together to improve societal and environmental outcomes. “Beyond providing energy to keep lights on and support industry, this is one of the many ways that Woodside Energy is collaborating to ensure the reliable and sustainable supply of essential products the community needs and enjoys,” said Mr Abbotsford. “This agreement will support key sectors in our economy, new opportunities for regional jobs as well as our own decarbonisation goals.” Wellington Shire Council Mayor, Cr Ian Bye welcomed BOC to the region in its partnership with Esso, which already has a long-standing relationship with the local community. “This partnership will result in real positives for our region, not only in the jobs created during construction, but also in the role our community will play in providing this important product to the beverage industry,” said Cr Bye.

The combination of heat, fuel (coal) and oxygen are all that are required to start a thermal event. This is often referred to as the fire triangle. Once started these thermal events can run indefinitely causing a significant hazard to workers in the area and causing mines huge financial losses, due to loss of product and mine outages. The use of nitrogen serves to remove the oxygen element in the fire triangle. The nitrogen will help stop an existing fire or prevent one starting. BOC has the ability to supply nitrogen in a wide range of flowrates and via alternate generation methods to mines across Australia and New Zealand, for the purposes of mine inertisation. BOC's demonstrated supply capability and the ability to put storage and vapourisation assets on the ground quickly is un-paralleled throughout the region. BOC has the region's biggest nitrogen production facilities combined with the most extensive network of distribution assets, ensuring we can respond quickly and effectively to any mine thermal event regardless of size. BOC's experience and available assets are a key reason that we have been the trusted partner for decades with NSW Mines Rescue. BOC has the ability to supply, install, operate and maintain equipment that can generate nitrogen on the customer's site. This technology is ideal for customers who need a steady, continuous demand of nitrogen for extended periods. The technology is usually in the form of either a pressure swing absorption system or a membrane system. These systems can be located in one place or made portable to meet the requirements of the customer. Want to find out more?

[ BOC to launch new SOLVOX technology at World Aquaculture Conference News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC to launch new SOLVOX technology at World Aquaculture Conference 28 May 2014 Press Releases Leading gases and engineering company BOC will showcase its newest SOLVOX oxygenation technology to Australian fish farmers for the first time at the World Aquaculture Adelaide Conference & Trade Show in June. In global collaboration with BOC’s parent company the Linde Group, BOC is helping major seafood companies in Tasmania, New Zealand and elsewhere optimise production volume and meat quality whilst reducing their environmental footprint though cutting edge aquaculture application technologies. The new SOLVOX solution being unveiled in in Adelaide from June 7‐11, is the latest development in low and medium pressure oxygenation systems to take Australian fish farming to the next level. The flexible SOLVOX oxygen dissolving equipment can be applied to any fish tank to establish optimum environmental conditions, thus improving fish health and allowing for faster growth. BOC is a leading end‐to‐end supplier to fish farms, offering industrial gas supply, specialist oxygenation and control equipment, installation and consultant services, as well as training and optimisation of the system, supported by an international network of experts to develop tailored solutions. The exciting new technology now available to Australian and New Zealand aquaculture operators was developed at Linde’s Innovation Centre of Aquaculture which opened in Norway in 2012. Located in Ålesund in the heart of the world’s most industrialised fish farming community, the centre features a range of highly equipped laboratories and number of test and demonstration aquaculture tanks. Leading aquaculture expert Kenneth Glomset, Market Development / Project Manager Aquaculture & Water Treatment from the Innovation Centre will attend the Adelaide conference to demonstrate the SOLVOX technology. Jon Hawton, BOC’s Market Manager – Food and Beverage said the new oxygen dissolution technologies were “streets ahead” of anything else currently available. “We are excited about the new SOLVOX technology range and are very pleased to be introducing it into Australia. The technology can be integrated into new or existing water distribution systems and tailored to suit most customer requirements,’’ he said. “Easy to install, the unit can be retrofitted into the pipework of existing fish tanks to oxygenate the entire flow entering the tank.” Maintaining proper oxygen levels ‐ in fresh water or salt water ‐ is important to enable the fish to combat disease and leads to stable production and economic benefits for the farmer. The correct dissolved oxygen level for optimal fish growth depends on species, size, feeding rate, activity level and water temperature. In closed or recycled systems, increased oxygen saturation levels are essential for fish survival. The dissolution of oxygen and transfer rate is greatly improved when using pure oxygen as opposed to air; this significantly reduces pressure requirements and pumping power and avoids the risk of super saturation. SOLVOX offers a unique low‐pressure oxygenation system which significantly increases fish production volume, optimises fish meat quality and considerably improves fish farming operations from an environmental standpoint. SOLVOX is a combined oxygenation and flow system which not only dissolves the optimal amount of oxygen in the inlet water flow, but also distributes it evenly at an adjustable flow pattern through the tank, ensuring fish stock physically benefit from exercise against the flow. The flow regime can be fully tailored according to fish size, stock density and fish species, such as salmon or cod. Due to its high efficiency, very low energy requirements and the positive effects of creating and maintaining an optimal environment for fish, SOLVOX can significantly contribute to cost efficiencies in on‐land fish production. In addition, the ability to produce fish from infancy to maturity in on‐land tanks has significant environmental benefits. The water flowing through fish tanks can be recycled to a high extent with excrements and feed residues filtered out effectively. As such, pollution to the marine environment and the possible spread of disease to wild fish is prevented. The key benefits of the SOLVOX range are: Reduced fish mortality Improved feed conversion rate Improved growth rate Increased stocking densities Healthier, hence higher quality fish The SOLVOX systems will be on display at the BOC stand at the World Aquaculture Adelaide Conference www.aquaculture.org.au at the Adelaide Convention Centre from June 7‐11 2014.

[ Eyes BOC Australia - A Linde company Health & Safety Cylinder Information Acetylene Cylinder Safety Safety with Liquid Nitrogen LPG Cylinder Safety Safety Training Sensitive Chemicals Declaration Welding & Cutting Hazards Cylinder Safety MMA Welding TIG Welding MIG Welding Heat Stress Confined Space Electrical Safety Noise Magnetic Fields Burns Light and Heat Radiation Ozone Eyes Metal Fume Fever Measurement of Fume Material Process Fume Particulate Fume Gaseous Fume Chromium in Fume Incident Response Eyes Injuries to the eye are one of the most common injuries sustained by welders. 'Arc Eye' is one of the most common injuries suffered. Eye problems are probably the most common type of injury sustained by welders. The hazards to eyes in welding can be conveniently divided into three main groups: Non-ionising Radiation. Foreign Bodies. Fumes and Gases. These groups will be considered separately below, along with advice on protective measures which should be taken to avoid injury. Non-ionising Radiation All welding arcs produce radiation, but as the energy ranges in the arcs are limited only certain wavelengths are generated. This radiation is divided into three categories Ultraviolet (UV), Visible Light and Infrared (IR). Of these three UV is the most likely to cause injury because its effects are not noticed by any of the senses at the time of exposure and so the effects only become apparent sometime later. Arc welding and cutting processes produce all three forms of radiation UV, visible and IR, and present a greater hazard to the eyes than oxy-fuel gas flames which only produce visible and IR radiation. Ultraviolet Radiation Ultraviolet radiation is generated by arc welding, cutting and gouging processes but not by fuel gas processes. The most well known, and probable the most frequently suffered, effect from welding arcs is 'Arc eye' or 'welders flash' and this is caused by the effect of UV radiation on the outer eye. Visible Light Intense visible light may be generated by both electric arc and fuel gas processes. Prolonged exposure could lead to retinal burns, either photochemical or thermal, but it would be very difficult to work with such high levels of glare. In such situations the eye will naturally react to reduce exposure. Infrared Radiation The intense heat of IR from both electric arc and fuel gas processes can cause retinal burns and cataracts. Protection The best protection for avoiding radiation damage to the eyes is to NEVER look at a welding arc without proper eye protection, however tempting that may be. A wide range of filter glasses for welding helmets, screens and goggles are available for both gas and arc welding. One of the most common ways a welder can catch Arc Eye is by initiating the arc before having the welding helmet in place over the eyes. First Aid Should a welder or other worker get a "flash", then arc eye drops can be applied by medical staff before going home and this will prevent the onset of arc eye, although the eyes may still feel a bit sore. Similarly, if arc eye does come on while still at work, it can be treated by on-site medical staff, or the patient can be taken to hospital or a medical centre. Foreign Bodies Welders have a high incidence of eye injury due to foreign bodies, such as slag, spatter, sparks, dust and grit. Wire and chemicals can also present a hazard if mishandled. Slag Particles can enter the eye, if not protected, during de-slagging. As the slag is often removed while still hot, the injury can be compounded by additional corneal burns. Spatter Spatter from the welding process can cause quite nasty injuries because of its temperature and velocity. Grinding sparks, dust and grit Debris from the grinding disks can get into the eye of the operator, and other workers at some distance from the actual grinding operation. Chemicals Chemicals used before and after welding such as degreasing and cleaning fluids, acetone, dye penetrant, acidic or caustic etching solutions, can be splashed into unprotected eyes, causing nasty injuries. Protection Many welders do not wear safety glasses or other form of eye protection when not actually welding, even when carrying out high-risk activities like de-slagging and it is this lack of protection which increases the number of incidence of this type of accident. It is possible, when working in close proximity to other welders, that slag injury may be attributed to another welders activities, it is therefore a wise precaution to wear eye protection at all times in these circumstances. First Aid In many cases, a foreign body in the eye can be seen on examination, and removed with care by a suitably qualified person. The eye can also be washed with sterile saline solution and this will often move the particle. If the eye is painful or the particle cannot be removed easily medical advice must be sought. Any eye injury due to a foreign body should be examined and treated by suitably trained nurses, if they are present on site at the time of the accident. Fumes and Gases Particulate fumes and gases can irritate or damage the eye. It is known that conjunctivitis may be caused by dust or fume associated with welding. Contact Lenses and Welding Every year there are reports in newspapers that contact lenses have been fused to welders eyes by the arc, causing nasty injuries. ]

[ Direct Oxygen Injection BOC Australia - A Linde company Industries Aquaculture Agriculture Chemicals Construction & Infrastructure Electronics Food, Beverage & Leisure Food processing Glass Processing Healthcare Metal Fabrication Metal Production Direct Oxygen Injection Oxygen Enhanced Combustion Inerting for Metal Production Heat treatment for Metal Production Additive Manufacturing Aluminium Die Cooling Aluminium Melting Aluminium Dross Cooling Sub-zero Parts Freezing Mining Steel & Metals Oil and Gas Pharma & Biotechnology Plastics & Rubber Power & Energy Retail Refining Space Mobility & Transport Water & Wastewater Treatment Direct Oxygen Injection Inject your business with one of our state-of-the-art systems that lowers costs and improves productivity in your electric arc furnaces (EAF) and cupolas. Introducing pure oxygen into your metal production operations can result in a more efficient use of your resources, improved productivity and lower costs. And because our injection technologies have been installed worldwide, you can trust our expertise and experience to boost your business. COJET® Gas Injection Our COJET® Gas Injection system uses a process and injector nozzle that delivers a 1.5-meter laser-like coherent jet of oxygen at supersonic speeds into the molten bath in an electric arc furnace. The fixed, wall-mounted injector nozzle retains the original diameter and velocity of the oxygen jet, delivering precise amounts of oxygen to the steel bath with less cavity formation and splash compared to traditional manipulators. Once the oxygen jet impinges on the steel bath, the concentrated momentum of the oxygen beam dissipates in the steel as fine bubbles, providing deep penetration and effective slag-metal mixing. The nozzle also operates as a conventional sidewall burner to melt scrap and as a supplemental oxygen source for post-combustion, improving furnace productivity and decreasing power consumption. In addition, COJET Gas Injection Technology allows for automatic furnace operation, decreases metal production costs through lower power consumption, extended furnace life, decreased maintenance and decreases refractory erosion, arc flare damage and maintenance gunning. It also enhances slag foaming, speeds decarburisation, eliminates the need for lance manipulators, decreases splashing and improves slag-metal stirring. Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) Today, over 75% of the world’s stainless steel is made using the Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) process invented by Linde. AOD provides an economical way to refine stainless steel with minimal loss of precious elements thanks to argon dilution. AOD is also widely used for the production of specialty alloys such as silicon steels, tool steels, nickel-based alloys and cobalt-based alloys. It combines higher metallic yields with lower material costs and cleaner metal, coupled with increased productivity. Optifire® Fluidic Burner If you operate an electric arc furnace or any scrap melting furnace, you’ll want to add the productivity-boosting firepower of Linde’s OPTIFIRE ® fluidic burner to your plant. Linde’s OPTIFIRE® burner delivers big results: Increases productivity Improves heating uniformity Reduces heating time Helps to eliminate cold spots Makes efficient use of chemical energy The angle of the flame of this fixed wall mounted burner can be changed by up to 30O in the vertical and horizontal directions. A remote-controlled operation allows the flame to be directed at cold scrap or cold spots and accelerates the meltdown in the furnace. The burner does not use any moving part, providing worry-free operation which maximises your up-time and minimises your cost. Want to find out more?

[ GOLDOX® Processes Additive Manufacturing Analysis & Instrumentation Automation and Robotics Cleaning, Polishing & Grinding Clinical Analysis & Diagnostics Coating & Surface Treatment Controlled & Modified Atmospheres Freezing & Cooling Fumigation & Pestcontrol GOLDOX® Inerting, Purging & Blanketing Melting & Heating Petrochemical Processing & Refining Moulding, Foaming, Forming & Extrusion Process Chemistry GOLDOX® GOLDOX® is an innovative hydrometallurgical process for the gold mining industry, developed by BOC This unique process adds oxygen to the ore slurry in the pre-conditioning stage, increasing dissolved oxygen concentration. This causes the rate of gold leach to increase, leading to improved gold recovery, reduced cyanide consumption and importantly, improved profitability for your business. The GOLDOX® Process The gold dissolution process occurs in the presence of cyanide and oxygen. Often, the demand for oxygen in this reaction is not satisfied as there are a number of side reactions which compete for the available oxygen. In addition, the forward reaction is favoured by excess oxygen & cyanide. The BOC solution to oxygen starvation in gold leaching is GOLDOX®.  Features of GOLDOX® Process: Custom designed solution for each application An injection system to help raise dissolved oxygen levels A number of injections systems based on our patented dissolution processes are utilised to efficiently dissolve oxygen. The EDR® Dissolution System Designed to build on the GOLDOX® process, the unique EDR® dissolution system utilises various configurations to disperse pressurised oxygen into the slurry stream. This allows gold mines to achieve increased dissolved oxygen levels within the leach circuit. Benefits of EDR® devices: Optimised oxygen consumption  Increase control of cyanide consumption  Increased gold recovery  Reduced chemical risks  Reduced “in tank furniture” Low maintenance hardwearing dissolver        No moving parts and increased wear resistance compared to other technologies GOLDOX® 2.0 Panels The updated GOLDOX® panels are BOC’s new design of oxygen flow measurement and control panels. These panels have been optimised to be used with BOC’s suite of GOLDOX® oxygen dissolution devices. Building on the highly successful GOLDOX® panels, additional features have been added to provide more value for our customers.  New features include: Standardised flow range designed to be used with BOC dissolution devices  Automatic water flush incorporated into design to prevent dissolver blockages  Feedback of oxygen flow rates back to customer’s control system  Automatic and manual oxygen control modes for optimised oxygen addition  Redundancy built in, in case of component failure. GOLDOX® Lances As part of the GOLDOX® range of application technology, the GOLDOX® lances are designed to inject oxygen into a pre-conditioning CIL or CIP tank.  The design of the lance has a number of key benefits over other offerings in the market. This includes: The ability to remove a lance while the tank is online  The ability to water-flush the lance and nozzle arrangement to maintain peak operability  The ability to water-flush the sheath surrounding the lance to ensure the lance can be removed easily  Hardwearing high-grade alumina ceramic nozzles available in a range of styles  Optimised design to deliver oxygen to the right place in the tank  Seamlessly integrated with a GOLDOX® oxygen dosing panel The simplicity of the GOLDOX® nozzles ensures that oxygen will be delivered to the right place, in the most cost effective and efficient manner. BOC’s Technical Specialists are available to consult on the following: Complete evaluation of the leach process Measurement of dissolved oxygen profiles On-site demonstration of the GOLDOX® technology Detailed report on plant response to GOLDOX® Ongoing technical support Alerting customers to future advances in technology The GOLDOX ® Potential Benefits: Improved kinetics resulting in increased production potential Better reagent utilisation resulting in lower cyanide consumption Improved adsorption characteristics Enhanced gold recovery Better control of dissolved oxygen levels thereby enhancing process control Increased returns for minimal capital outlay Ease of incorporation into existing facilities BOC is committed to providing the highest possible level of service to its customers through: Security of supply, synonymous with being one of South Pacific’s leading gas suppliers Highly trained specialists dedicated to satisfying customer needs The provision of ongoing training and maintenance support Unprecedented access to the latest technological expertise from our Engineering Team Adherence to the highest safety standards Want to find out more?

[ COVID-19 statement from John Evans, Managing Director, South Pacific News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media COVID-19 Statement Press Releases COVID-19 statement from John Evans, Managing Director, South Pacific In these unprecedented and uncertain times, BOC and Elgas wish to reassure our customers, our employees, and the communities in which we work that we are taking every measure to safeguard their safety and wellbeing while continuing to deliver our gases where and when they are most needed.   As essential services providers BOC and Elgas produce and deliver critical gases across the South Pacific region; from LPG for heating and cooking, to enabling gases that keep our power stations and water running, through to the very important medical oxygen and other medical gases.  Employee safety  Over the past six weeks we have taken a large number of measures to protect our employees and to ensure that our production sites remain open and operating to their full capacity. Some of the steps we have taken to reduce the risk for our employees include: Banning all non-essential air travel both domestically and internationally since 9 March Banning non-essential visitors to all sites across the South Pacific Implementing rigorous social distancing at all sites as well as other risk mitigation actions including: Working from home where possible The frequency of cleaning of lunchrooms and change-rooms has been increased, and checks are in place to make sure cleaning is occurring as expected Non-essential production employees have been instructed to work from an alternate location Shift overlap times have been removed to minimise employee contact  At sites where there is only one shift, the employees have been separated into two separate teams  Providing ongoing access to employee assistance providers to support the mental health of all employees and their families  Continuity of supply  We also want to reassure you about the continuity of supply and mitigations that BOC and Elgas have in place for all our gas products and services. We have a long standing and comprehensive Contingency and Disaster Recovery Plan for all our facilities in South Pacific.  Nearly all of BOC gases are produced locally using BOC owned plants and equipment. Across Australia and New Zealand BOC has eight-cylinder filling sites and nine Air Separation Units producing our gases as well as five sources of carbon dioxide. We manage every step in the production, packaging, logistics and distribution of gas from creation to delivery to our customers. This ensures a flexible supply chain that can quickly respond to changing customer requirements in any location. Due to our multiple production sites we have the unique ability to draw on our South Pacific network to ensure continuity if one or even multiple BOC production plants are temporarily closed.  Elgas has the most diverse LPG supply chain in Australia and New Zealand with access to local production sources via ship, road tanker or both. Elgas owns two major LPG storage facilities in Australia, the Elgas Cavern and the Elgas Dandenong Bulk Terminal, and is also a major shareholder in the Liquigas LPG Terminals across New Zealand. Aside from major terminals Elgas also has an extensive branch and depot network with over seventy LPG tanker and cylinder filling facilities across Australia and New Zealand.   Our unique distribution network provides robust delivery capabilities to support and supply products and services to BOC and Elgas customers during emergency situations such as this. We have the largest LPG transport fleet in Australia with over 120 LPG trailers, 130 rigid tankers and over 250 dedicated cylinder delivery vehicles – all staffed by local people. Medical gas supply and patient safety   Due to an anticipated increase in medical gas requirements as a result of the ongoing escalation of COVID-19, BOC has over the past six weeks taken proactive steps to assist us in meeting an increase in demand and to ensure patient safety including: Increased safety stock holdings of medical gases throughout our network of production sites and distribution points Additional stocks have been moved away from our major filling facilities to key strategic sites, near major population densities. This has been implemented to mitigate risks if one of our major filling sites is required to temporarily close. Implementation of dedicated ‘medical cylinder filling employees’ that work separately from the rest of the workforce  We have also taken steps to minimise the risk to the most vulnerable in our communities, our elderly. As a key supplier of medical gas and equipment to hospitals, medical facilities and aged care facilities we have now implemented dedicated aged care delivery trucks in our capital cities. By doing this we minimise the risk of transference to an aged care facility from other medical facilities.   Call centre and customer support  BOC and Elgas have locally based call centres in Australia and New Zealand, and we are already transitioning these centres to a remote working model to ensure ongoing customer support throughout this challenging time. Should you need support please contact: Australia: BOC on contact@boc.com or call Elgas on 131 161.  New Zealand: BOC on sales@boc.com or call Elgas on 0800 435 427 We will continue to monitor the situation and work with government, our customers and in particular our health and medical customers to ensure that we are able to continue providing our critical gases where and when they are needed.

[ Supply and Procurement About Corporate History Senior Leadership Team Supply and Procurement What we do Corporate responsibility Framework Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Ethics and Compliance Community News & Media Press Releases Media Contact BOC @ Social Media Case Studies Competitions AU Contact Your Career at BOC Work @BOC Roles @BOC Jobs @BOC Apply @BOC Incident Response Supply and Procurement The objective of BOC’s Procurement Department is to identify the best suppliers in the marketplace and build strong relationships to provide year-on-year value for both businesses throughout the life of the contract. Our procurement process ensures goods and services are purchased in a way that is ethical, safe and environmentally conscious. Category Management Process Procurement at BOC operates under a Category Management (CM) Framework. CM is a comprehensive end-to-end engagement model for defining business needs and implementing the most suitable sourcing solution. A sequential and data-driven process is applied to ensure value for BOC and minimise the risk of non-compliance during post contract implementation. Category Sourcing BOC uses a range a of ‘go to market’ strategies to ensure competitive “Total Cost of Ownership” proposals are sought from the market. The “go to market” strategy is selected according to the requirements of the procurement need, and can include: Multi-supplier proposals Single source supplier proposals Request for information Formal request for tender Request for quotation Reverse auction BOC uses and therefore encourages the use of e-Procurement and highly values suppliers that offer and invest in such e-commerce solutions (e.g. Punch-out, catalogue systems, portals, etc). Ongoing Supplier Relations Through the use of ‘living’ contracts, both the supplier and BOC will have an understanding of each other’s objectives and will actively work to ensure that these are met and provide value. BOC will meet with its suppliers to provide open and honest feedback about the relationship and will use these meetings to drive performance. BOC has a philosophy of continuous improvement with its suppliers and works under Six Sigma methodologies to drive efficiency. Our objective is to reduce costs while improving value to BOC. The Procurement Department endeavours to treat all parties involved in the CM process fairly. Payment Terms To ensure timely payment, suppliers must submit accurate invoices to the Accounts Payable Department at BOC. The invoice must contain a Purchase Order number and there is a risk of non-payment if a purchase order has not been received. The invoice must also show the correct costs, quantities, description of the goods or services provided and must have completed delivery or properly performed the service required. If milestone payments are required, these must be negotiated and documented in a contract before any work is started. It is BOC policy to pay its suppliers thirty two (32) days from month end following receipt of an invoice. For example, if an invoice is submitted on the 16th of April, payment will be on the 1st June and an invoice submitted on the 30th April will also be paid on the 1st June. Supplier Endorsements Being a supplier of goods or services to BOC does not mean that the supplier is endorsed by BOC. If a supplier wishes to use any material that relates to BOC or The Linde Group then formal approval of that material must be sought from BOC. References may only be obtained from BOC if the supplier is in a contracted strategic relationship with BOC.

[ BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project Press Releases BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project BOC, a member of the Linde Group, one of the world leading gases and engineering companies, will support CSIRO during its $3.4 million ammonia to hydrogen cracking and membrane purification project that is set to revolutionise the global supply chain for hydrogen. As part of a recently signed collaboration agreement, BOC will contribute in-kind gas products and technical expertise worth in excess of $100,000 for the two-year project now underway at CSIRO’s test site in Pullenvale, Brisbane. BOC will supply ammonia, which will be cracked and purified into pure hydrogen by the modular membrane technology unit developed by CSIRO. BOC engineers will also assist with compressing the hydrogen and storing it in special cylinder packs, then distributing it to customers on the Australian east coast for use in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. General Manager Hydrogen Alex Dronoff says BOC is proud to be working with CSIRO researchers as they take a significant step forward in hydrogen technology, paving the way for a renewable hydrogen export market that could meet rising demand in emerging markets Europe, Japan and South Korea. “As the only global organisation with expertise and technology that covers the entire hydrogen supply chain, BOC and The Linde Group are committed to working with Australian researchers and industry to help advance the global transition towards clean hydrogen for mobility and energy. “We look forward to sharing our extensive experience with CSIRO as they enter the final development stages of the membrane technology device – providing advice on generation and storage, right through to transportation and refuelling of hydrogen-powered vehicles.”       CSIRO Energy Director Karl Rodrigues is excited by the growing global momentum to develop hydrogen energy systems, and the potential for a hydrogen export industry to benefit Australia. “We’re pleased to be partnering with industry – including BOC – and look forward to applying CSIRO innovation to facilitate the creation of new low emissions energy markets." Dronoff adds the CSIRO project is a vital technology breakthrough that complements much of the pioneering work that The Linde Group has been driving for decades. “With more than 150 fuelling stations built worldwide and over 1.5 million refuelling operations completed, Linde is continuously working on the expansion of hydrogen infrastructure. In August 2016 Linde launched BeeZero, the world’s first hydrogen-powered carsharing service – and is a joint partner of the Energie Park Mainz project that produces and stores renewable hydrogen for mobility applications generated by electrolysis through wind energy at a grid-relevant scale. “With this CSIRO technology, it will be easier and faster to replicate this success on an even larger scale. We are certainly excited by the significant role that Australia will play in making renewable hydrogen a fuel of the future.” For more information on the CSIRO project, click here .

Proper training and 'safe working practices' can markedly reduce the risks. The possibility of electric shock is one of the most serious risks encountered by a welder. Touching 'live' electrical components, including the electrode and the work piece, can result in serious a burn injury or, more seriously, electric shock. Electric shock can kill, either by direct action on the body, or by a resultant fall, if working at height. Most electrical accidents are avoidable and occur as a result of carelessness, lack of training, shoddy workmanship or due to faulty equipment. Welders must never become complacent about the hazards associated with electric arc welding and safe working practices should be followed at all times. What Is It? Electricity is a form of energy associated with the movement of electrons and protons in a conducting medium e.g. copper wire. The amount of electricity flowing is measured in 'amperes' and the pressure, or potential is measured in 'volts'.  Electricity will only flow when a circuit is completed and a potential difference exists in the circuit. Sources In welding there are many sources of electrical hazard over and above those encountered in everyday life. These include the welding power plant, auxiliary welding equipment such as cables, wire feed units, welding torches and electrode holders plus other associated tools and equipment such as grinders and electrode ovens etc. Serious injury can also result from contact with the welding circuit, and shocks from this source are probably the most frequently experienced by welders. Increased hazard situations If the welder is hot and perspiring, or if he or she is working in wet, damp, hot, humid or cramped conditions, the skin and clothing may become wet. Effects of Exposure The passage of an electric current through the body can cause severe injury and even death. The severity of the injury will depend on several factors including the actual current and voltage, the duration of current flow and how healthy the victim is. Limits and Legislation Welding equipment should be installed in accordance with international, national, or local standards and the manufacturer's instructions and tested to ensure it is correctly wired in, properly 'earthed', and safe to use. Control and Prevention Control of electrical hazards and prevention of electrical accidents should be paramount at all stages of a welding operation, from initial installation of the equipment, to its use and subsequent maintenance. Regulations, many industry codes of practice and safety guidance documents have been issued over the years regarding the safe use of electrical equipment and protective clothing to be worn when welding. Installation and Maintenance of Welding Equipment Only qualified personnel should install welding power sources. At this stage they should ensure that the mains supply isolator switch is correctly installed, has adequate power rating for the equipment and the socket plug connector is correctly wired. All inspections should be recorded, including an accurate record of findings. Use of Welding Equipment Before commencement of welding the welder should ascertain that all electrical connections are clean, tightly fixed and properly protected. Welders should also check that welding leads, work return leads and earth leads are capable of carrying the maximum operating current without overheating and are in good condition with no disruptions in the insulation and no exposed metal connectors. It is advisable that welders should not wear rings, bracelets, chains or metal watchstraps when welding as these items are good conductors of electricity and may result in serious burn injuries. General Advice There should be an easily accessible means of switching off the welding power source at the mains at the end of each work period or in the event of an emergency. Ancillary Equipment LVSD (low voltage safety devices) should be used whenever possible when MMA welding. These devices ensure that only low voltage is present at the electrode holder when no welding is taking place. First Aid Whatever the cause of the shock, never touch the casualty with bare hands until the casualty is no longer in contact with the electrical source or there is a risk of getting an electric shock yourself. If someone has had an electric shock and is still in contact with the source, do not touch the casualty until contact with the source has been broken. In all cases of electric shock, the casualty should be taken to hospital for treatment or assessed by a doctor. Downloads Electrical safety single phase equipment A3 poster(PDF 2.0 MB) ]

[ Chromium in Fume Health & Safety Cylinder Information Acetylene Cylinder Safety Safety with Liquid Nitrogen LPG Cylinder Safety Safety Training Sensitive Chemicals Declaration Welding & Cutting Hazards Cylinder Safety MMA Welding TIG Welding MIG Welding Heat Stress Confined Space Electrical Safety Noise Magnetic Fields Burns Light and Heat Radiation Ozone Eyes Metal Fume Fever Measurement of Fume Material Process Fume Particulate Fume Gaseous Fume Chromium in Fume Incident Response Chromium in Fume Chromium can be present in fume in different forms. There are two main forms of chromium found in welding, trivalent, Cr3+, and hexavalent, Cr6+. Hexavalent chromium is considered the more hazardous of the two forms, and in welding fume it is a suspected human carcinogen. Chromium is an element present in the consumables and parent material of stainless steels, heat-resisting steels, some creep-resisting steels, some high nickel alloys, and armour plate. It may also be present in some consumables used for hardfacing. Chromium is also used as a coating for other materials, such as chrome plating, to give corrosion protection to steel, or to give a pleasing aesthetic appearance. Chromium, as chromate, may also be found as a constituent of some industrial paints. Welding or cutting materials containing chromium is likely to give chromium compounds in any particulate fume that is generated by the process. Whether it presents a significant hazard to health depends on the concentration and the duration of exposure. Chromium Formation in Welding When arc welding takes place on materials containing chromium, or by using consumables containing chromium, some of the chromium will be volatilised and escape from the protective gases in and around the arc. This metal vapour will be oxidised by the atmosphere to give particulate fume. Depending on the specific welding process being used chromium can be present in the fume in several different valency states, including trivalent, Cr3+; and hexavalent, Cr6. Effects of Exposure The major toxic effects of chromium in industry are concentrated on the nose, the skin and the lungs. The nose or, more specifically, the mucous membranes of the nasal septum, together with the skin of the hands and forearm, are the areas targeted by chromic acid and its salts. Control Measures When welding stainless steels using the MMA process there is a higher level of particulate fume generated than with MIG welding. However, an analysis of the fume generated would show that the MIG fume has a higher percentage of chromium present, typically 10 to 14%, this can be compared to about 6 to 8% for MMA. ]

[ BOC Gas: Globally Harmonised System of Classification Why are some of BOC’s cylinder labels and Safety Data Sheets changing? The Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) is an internationally agreed system of chemical classification and hazard communication through labelling and Safety Data Sheets (SDS). The GHS is published by the United Nations. Download PDF As of January 2017, the new Australian Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) Regulations require an updated system of labelling for chemicals based on the GHS1. As a result, manufacturers and importers of hazardous chemicals have until 31 December 2016 to move to the new labelling system. This is an industry-wide change across Australia and more detailed information is available through: Safe Work Australia Labelling of Workplace Hazardous Chemicals – Code of Practice. This Code of Practice is under section 274 of the Work Health and Safety Act (WHS Act). Most gases are classified as a hazardous chemical. Therefore in preparation for January 2017, BOC will be updating labels and SDS’s to be compliant with GHS. Due to the size of the cylinder fleet, we have already started this process. As a result, you may start noticing that the labels on your gas cylinders and SDS’s vary slightly so that they are now compliant with GHS. Food Fresh Carbon Dioxide The new GHS compliant label for Food Fresh Carbon Dioxide supplied in gas withdrawal cylinders states the product is liquified. Please note: there have been no changes to the product itself or the way it is packaged. The liquified status simply refers to the state the product is stored in the cylinder. For gas withdrawal, product is extracted from the top of the cylinder where it is in a gaseous state. Liquid withdrawal cylinders are identified by two black strips painted vertically on each side, an extra 'E' at the end of the gas code and some also include an additional 'Caution: Liquid Supply Cylinder' sticker. Product is extracted from these cylinders via an eductor dip tube reaching down to the liquid product at the bottom. Gas Withdrawal Gas Code Liquid Withdrawal Gas Code 082D 082DE 082VT 082EE 082F 082FE 082G 082GE Always refer to the SDS prior to using a gas. Please note: the GHS compliant label for some special gases may appear different to the below. 1. There are several types of hazardous chemical that are excluded from the labelling provisions under Regulation 335 or exempted from coverage from all provisions in Part 7.1 of the WHS Regulations. One exemption is therapeutic goods which are regarded as correctly labelled under the WHS Regulations when labelled in accordance with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) requirements and in a form: Intended for intake or administration to or by a patient or consumer, or Intended for use for therapeutic purposes. Accordingly, when these conditions are met, existing labels and Safety Data Sheets for these goods are considered to comply with WHS regulations. ]

[ BOC to build hydrogen refueller at BP Truckstop in Lytton News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC to build hydrogen refueller at BP Truckstop in Lytton Press Releases Leading gas and engineering company BOC, a Linde company, and bp Australia today announced a new agreement to build a hydrogen refuelling station at the bp Truckstop in Lytton, Queensland. It will be the first service station in Australia with hydrogen refuelling capability. The Queensland Government’s current fleet of five hydrogen-powered Hyundai NEXOs will be the first to use the new refueller to be opened later in the year. BOC will supply and install the state-of-the-art Linde hydrogen refuelling station. It will dispense green hydrogen produced by BOC at its Bulwer Island production site, just 10 minutes from the bp Truckstop in Lytton. The green hydrogen will be produced by a 220 kW electrolyser powered by solar energy generated onsite. John Evans, Managing Director of BOC South Pacific said the partnership with bp Australia was an important step forward in developing a hydrogen refuelling service station network in Queensland. “BOC is committed to supporting the development of hydrogen as a zero emissions fuel and decarbonising the transport sector in Australia,” said Mr Evans. “Working closely with our partner bp we will demonstrate how state-of-the-art hydrogen refuelling stations can be safely integrated into the existing service station network, paving the way for more infrastructure to facilitate hydrogen trucks and buses." “We look forward to opening this facility to the public in the future, and working with our project partners ARENA, the Queensland Government and bp to showcase a world class end-to-end green hydrogen production, storage, supply and refuelling solution.” Frédéric Baudry, president, bp Australia and SVP fuels & low carbon solutions, Asia Pacific, said: "bp is proud to be partnering with BOC and the Queensland Government in the development of Australia’s first green hydrogen refueller on an existing service station." "Hydrogen will play an important part in the future energy and mobility mix, and partnerships – such as this one between Government, BOC and bp – will be essential in decarbonizing industry and transport. bp has extensive industrial experience with hydrogen and is now linking that with our expertise in supplying energy to the world, creating end-to-end offers and decarbonisation solutions for our customers. We are excited to be developing and deploying innovative offers that meet the changing mobility needs of our customers' today and for the future.” Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen Mick De Brenni said it was critical that locally made fuel continued to be available to power our heavy transport sector as it moved to lower its emissions and looked forward to supporting more green hydrogen initiatives from traditional fuel suppliers. “The importance of this for our economic future cannot be overstated because this is another link in the supply chain, ensuring Queensland cements its status as a global force in the hydrogen industry,” said Minister de Brenni. “From hydrogen-powered trucks and coaches to trains and marine vessels, we are exploring every opportunity to capitalise on the opportunities of Queensland’s energy transformation.” The hydrogen refuelling station will have capacity to refill a hydrogen car in 3-5 minutes and will in future be made available to drivers with a bp plus card who register with bp for access to the supply of hydrogen.

Welding of certain materials can give rise to fume containing freshly formed metal oxide fume. If inhaled in sufficient concentration it can produce a reaction similar to a bout of flu. This is what is commonly known as Metal Fume Fever. Although it normally lasts no more than a day, it is possible to get an attack of fume fever more than once. However, there is no evidence to suggest that repeated bouts cause cumulative damage. The metal oxides usually associated with metal fume fever are those of zinc and copper, although others can have the same effects. In welding and cutting it is working with copper alloys, galvanised and some painted components that are most likely to this problem. Alternative names for metal fume fever include, 'Zinc Fume Fever', 'Brass Chills' or 'Brass Founders Ague'. These derive from the regular occurrence of fume fever in workers employed in brass foundries, where zinc, with its low boiling point (907°C), would boil-off when added to molten copper at 1083°C, forming zinc oxide in the air. Symptoms Metal Fume Fever is an acute, 'flu-like' attack brought on by exposure to freshly formed metal oxide fume. Causes Fume Fever is caused by inhalation of freshly formed metal oxide fume. Any fresh metal oxide can cause it but it is most frequently associated with zinc, from welding brasses, galvanized iron and steel, other alloys containing zinc and in some instances zinc rich primers and paints. Control Measures The simplest way to avoid getting metal fume fever is to use a suitable fume extractor, correctly positioned, to take the metal oxide fume away from the welders' breathing zone. The most suitable kind of extractor is a high volume, low velocity unit, as this type can be used with all welding processes, including TIG and other gas-shielded processes, without disrupting the gas shield. ]

[ Liquid hydrocarbons BOC Australia - A Linde company Products Equipment & Accessories Gas Products Beacon Refrigerants Specialty gases Cylinder Upgrades Supply Modes Liquid hydrocarbons Understanding behaviours of hydrocarbon mixtures in contact with overpressure gas. The choice between piston and liquid withdrawal overpressure cylinders, otherwise known as traditional cylinders with overpressure for liquid hydrocarbon mixtures, is an important one – with a number of factors to be considered before a decision is made on the most suitable mixture type. Factors such as precision, maintenance, costs and certification levels should be considered to ensure optimum accuracy and value for money. To assist in this decision, BOC conducted a number of simulations to determine the effects of hydrocarbon mixtures in contact with overpressure gas including helium, hydrogen and nitrogen. The results are important to consider when choosing between a piston cylinder and a traditional cylinder, and when deciding how to use a traditional cylinder. This will help laboratory managers and maintenance teams using piston cylinders or traditional cylinders better understand the benefits and disadvantages of each.

Liquid nitrogen (LIN) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are popular cooling agents due to the low boiling point of LIN (-196°C) and the low sublimation point of CO2 (-78,5°C). This enables large-scale heat transfer in a short time period. BOC's sub-zero freezers use liquid nitrogen to cool down parts inside a treatment chamber. The liquid gas is sprayed through fine nozzles into the chamber, where it evaporates quickly and thus lowers the temperature. This optimises the parts’ micro-structure, transforming retained austenite into martensite. The temperature profiles are measured and precisely controlled by two sensors, making this method the ideal fit for the demanding requirements of aviation, aerospace and automotive industries. In addition to liquid nitrogen, BOC offers specially engineered cryogenic cooling equipment. You can choose from four off-the-shelf freezers – cabinet, box, tunnel and further continuous models. Complementing this standard offering, BOC also provides customised models in various standard and tailored sizes to meet your specific efficiency, heat loss and gas consumption needs.

The application equipment of the SOLVOCARB® family can be applied flexibly in an in-line or bypass operation, thus offering a broad range of solutions to meet specific customer requirements. Water Treatment With Ozone Ozone has been used in water treatment for a long time to get rid of contaminants and to reduce micro-pollutants in drinking water and for treating industrial wastewater with a high chemical oxygen demand (COD) as found in the textile, pharmaceutical and specialty chemicals industries.  Recently, more and more countries have been introducing regulations for the residual micro-pollutants in treated wastewater after conventional municipal biological treatment. Various advanced oxygenation process treatment trains have been tested for this purpose, and ozone has been proven to be very effective in dealing with these compounds.  In the corona-discharge production process, ozone is created by an electrical discharge to ambient air or oxygen.

[ MIG welding Health & Safety Cylinder Information Acetylene Cylinder Safety Safety with Liquid Nitrogen LPG Cylinder Safety Safety Training Sensitive Chemicals Declaration Welding & Cutting Hazards Cylinder Safety MMA Welding TIG Welding MIG Welding Heat Stress Confined Space Electrical Safety Noise Magnetic Fields Burns Light and Heat Radiation Ozone Eyes Metal Fume Fever Measurement of Fume Material Process Fume Particulate Fume Gaseous Fume Chromium in Fume Incident Response MIG Welding The main hazards from MIG welding are electrical, arc radiation, and welding fumes. Other hazards include inert gas, noise, heat, and fire. Welding fumes include both gaseous and particulate types. The MIG welding process is the most common welding process now used in manufacturing. It is capable of being used on a wide range of material types from common steels, to titanium. The MIG process produces a variety of hazards, not only to those carrying out the operation but also in many instances to others in the vicinity such as inspectors, labourers and even other welders. Some of the hazards encountered are specific to MIG welding while others are of a more general nature. Different hazards occur before welding commences, during welding and sometimes after welding has finished. When we look at the major hazards we will also consider when they may occur. Types of Hazards in MIG Welding The hazards encountered in MIG welding may be sub-divided into groups as follows: Electrical safety and Magnetic Fields Compressed gases, including inert gases Radiation Electrical Safety & Magnetic Fields Power sources for MIG welding and associated pieces of equipment, such as wire feed systems, welding guns, leads and connectors all require an electricity supply to operate. Power sources may operate from a three-phase supply, from industrial single-phase supply or even from a 13amp domestic power supply. It should always be remembered that electric shock can kill. Due to the potential severity of the hazard, the following is a guide on what to do before any MIG welding is started to reduce the risk of an electrical accident: - Only qualified personnel should be allowed to install MIG equipment. - The equipment must be tested to ensure it is operating correctly and safely before being put into service. During welding the possibility of electric shock is one of the most serious risks encountered by a welder. Most electrical accidents occur as a result of carelessness, poor workmanship or due to faulty equipment. The following points provide a guide to what to reduce the risks: - Welders should not remove panels from a welding power source if it stops working correctly. Touching a lead inside the welding set with the power still on can result in a serious primary voltage shock. - Never ignore a blown fuse, it is a warning that something is wrong. The following practice will help prevent electrical accidents: - When welding is temporarily interrupted welding guns should be placed where they are safe and the gun switch cannot be activated accidentally. Compressed Gases Shielding gases used for MIG welding may be 100% inert, 100% active, or a mixture of inert and active gases. Whatever their composition, the main risk to welders and others from the shielding gas is that of asphyxiation. Inert gases are not toxic, but will not support life. The following should be considered to ensure safety while this is being carried out: - Always use the correct regulator for the gas and ensure that it suitable for the pressure contained in the cylinder. - Never modify a regulator for use with another product. Radiation MIG welding produces electromagnetic radiation over a wide range of wavelengths. These wavelengths cover three distinct types of 'non-ionizing' radiation, namely, Ultraviolet (UV), Visible Light and Infrared (IR). MIG welding however, does not produce ionizing radiation. Some points to bear in mind are: - Radiation is only generated while the arc is generated and the amount emitted generally increases as the welding current increases. - Burns can be avoided by wearing proper protective clothing and ensuring no areas of skin are left exposed. Heat Sources of heat include welded components, the electrode holder and hot or discarded electrodes, and any of these can cause burns to the skin. A hot environment can cause the body to overheat, and this is known as Heat Stress. However those working in welding shops can reduce the risk by adhering to the following recommendation: Always assume all metal objects in a welding shop are hot. Welding Fume and Gases Welding fume is an unavoidable by-product of MIG welding, although fume generation from the process is generally low. However, the welder should still be aware of what fume is likely to be generated while welding is taking place and the potential hazards of exposure to the welding fume. Particulate Fume Particulate fume is mostly formed from vapourisation of the welding consumable. The following general statements are a rough indication of what the constituents of the particulate fume are likely to be: - Fume from MIG welding aluminium is mostly aluminium oxide. - Fume from MIG welding steel is mainly iron oxide plus a small amount of manganese oxide and other alloying elements. Gaseous Fume Welding processes with open arcs, such as MIG, are likely to promote the formation of gaseous fume as a result of the action of ultraviolet light and heat on atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen. The main factor controlling its production are: - Argon-rich shielding gases are more likely to promote ozone production than are helium-rich shielding gases or 100% carbon dioxide. Exposure to Fume Whilst all components of welding fume may present a risk to health, given a high enough concentration, some present a greater hazard than do others. The potential effect of exposure to welding fume depends upon: - The composition of the fume. - The volume of fume produced. Noise The MIG welding processes, like all others, generates noise. Some power sources, notably some pulsed MIG and synergic MIG sets, are noisier than others and some adivitionally generate high frequency noise that can affect hearing. Manual Handling Back injuries are one of the most common industrial injuries suffered by workers. Welding consumables may be heavy or awkward to lift. Confined Spaces Any of the hazards associated with MIG welding will be exacerbated when welding is carried out in a confined space. Solvents Flammable solvents may have been used to clean components prior to welding and may still be present around the welding area, presenting a fire or explosion hazard. The welder should allow all traces of any solvents to disappear from component surfaces and ensure no containers of solvent are in close proximity before welding starts. Workshop Safety General workshop safety is really a matter of common sense and good housekeeping and the following actions may be used to avoid accidents: - Maintain a tidy work area, especially free from trip hazards. - Keep walkways clear and free from welding cables, spare material, consumables, etc. Practical Considerations The advice given above is general in nature but forms a good overview of the potential hazards associated with the process. There are, however, things that can be done to help reduce the possibility of problems occurring in the workplace: Training There is a considerable amount of misinformation in the fabrication industry about the health hazards associated with welding. There is also a lack of understanding among welders as the how they can influence the type and severity of hazard. The main cause for this is often poor training and some welders appear to be unwilling to operate at welding conditions that will keep fume production to a minimum. Routine Maintenance, Safety Audit and Equipment Inspections Simple routine maintenance and a formalised system of safety audits on welding equipment has been shown to help reduce the number of safety related incidents within the industry. Personal Protective Equipment Welders should ensure that they wear appropriate clothing for the operation they are carrying out. Flame-retardant boiler suits, gloves or gauntlets, safety shoes, leather aprons, etc, should be in good condition and as free from oil, grease and moisture as is physically possible as these can reduce the effectiveness of the safety equipment. ]

Frequently asked questions [ Frequently asked questions Supply and Service Supply Options Supply Channels Services Application Technology Centres ACCURA gas cylinder management Cylinder Upgrades Frequently Asked Questions EVOS VIPR F3VIPR Cylinder G3VIPR Cylinder Safety Training Frequently asked questions Here you can find answers to some commonly asked questions. Raise The Bar - Cylinder Upgrades Click on a question below to view the answer Why is BOC introducing this new cylinder? BOC is introducing new cylinders in response to customer demand. They are a lightweight steel cylinder (compared to other high pressure cylinders) manufactured to international standards, and can be filled to a higher pressure and content than our older cylinders. This means that at a constant flow rate the new high pressure cylinder lasts longer than the older cylinders. Why are these new cylinders better? These cylinders have several features that differentiate them from the older, lower pressure cylinders. Firstly, the newer cylinders can be filled to a much higher pressure. This means there will be more gas in each cylinder. As such, your new cylinder will last longer, meaning reduced downtime for you so you can keep doing what you do for longer. A large majority of these new cylinders have been fitted with side outlet complex valves. A complex valve features a non-return and minimum pressure retaining device. This device helps stop backflow and corrosion. These features assist BOC to continue to provide you with high quality industrial gases. What about the safety testing on existing cylinders? These new cylinders form part of BOC’s commitment to continuous improvement and will be introduced into other products in coming years. BOC is committed to providing a high quality and safe products to our customers. We conduct regular testing on all our products to ensure that they meet or better the specified quality. All BOC’s cylinders are visually checked each time they are filled to ensure that they are safe and in good condition. Will this new cylinder cost me more? For the new cylinders, the price of the gas per m3 will stay the same. As there is more gas in each cylinder, total price for gas in a cylinder will increase (unless there is no change in the cylinder volume, then the total price for gas in a cylinder will remain the same). Other charges including handling, delivery and container service charges will remain the same as the original cylinder. This is despite the significant investment BOC is making in these new cylinders. For example, the container service charge for a new D2 cylinder will remain the same as the schedule price of an old D sized cylinder.   Please note: cylinder charges and gas pricing are subject to review. Can I opt out of getting the new cylinders? No. In order to raise the bar, BOC will be replacing the older cylinders with new cylinders. The older cylinders will be condemned and will not be available in products which have been upgraded. Is my regulator compatible with the new cylinders? Regulators manufactured to Australian Standard AS 4267-1995 can be safely used with the new high pressure cylinders. Regulators marked/stamped with AS 4267 comply. If your valve has been tampered with or modified then BOC cannot tell whether or not a regulator complies with AS 4267-1995, even if it is properly marked. If you suspect that your valve has been tampered with or modified, you should not use it. BOC recommends that you use one of the following regulators: Product Code Product Outlet Recommended regulator 060E2 Argoshield Light (E size) side BOC 6000 Argon Regulator 061D2 Industrial Argon (D size) 060D2 Argoshield Light (D size) 070G2 Argoshield 52 (G size) 061G2 Industrial Argon (G size) top BOC 6000 Argon Shielding Gas Regulator 020D2 Industrial Oxygen (D size)   side BOC 8000 Single Stage Oxygen Regulator 020E2 Industrial  Oxygen (E size)  220G2  Ultra High Purity  Helium (G size)  top Baseline Single Stage Brass C 106/1-50-4S-T10   Baseline Single Stage Brass C 106/1-150-45-T10   Baseline Dual Stage Brass C 106/2-50-4S-T10   Baseline Dual Stage Brass C 106/2-150-4S-T10 How do I identify the new cylinders? Your new cylinder can be identified by the addition of a ‘2’ next to the cylinder size listed on the shoulder label. For example, a G sized cylinder will become a G2 sized cylinder, E will become E2 and so on. The new cylinders may also have a ‘New Product’ neck tag or shoulder sticker.

Since becoming Redkite’s first corporate sponsor, BOC has helped the organisation grow into a leading provider of essential support services for young people with cancer and their families – from the moment of diagnosis until after treatment finishes. Jenni Seton, Chief Executive Officer at Redkite said BOC and its staff have shown unwavering support and generosity which has helped thousands of families facing cancer.   “BOC was Redkite’s very first corporate partner, and over twenty generous years, they have had a huge impact on generations of families facing childhood cancer. “BOC has been a pioneer in staff engagement and fundraising activities through their innovative KiteTime program. As an organisation, their enthusiasm for building community and looking after families who are really doing it tough has been infectious.  “It was BOC who helped Redkite set up a presence in Queensland in 2001. Before this, we didn’t have the resources to help Queensland families. They have also supported many of our flagship fundraising activities including our annual corporate quizzes and education programs. “BOC’s unstinting support and generosity has helped Redkite become the organisation we are today, and we can’t thank them enough.” John Evans, BOC South Pacific Managing Director, said BOC is proud to have supported Redkite for the past 20 years through many different volunteering and company fundraising activities.  “The success of this partnership has been driven by the passion of the Redkite team who provide critical support to children and families every day – as well as the commitment shown by BOC employees across Australia to support this very important cause.  “There have been many highlights, however as the Principal Sponsor of the Redkite Corporate Quiz, it has been incredibly rewarding to be a part of this annual activity that has raised over $10 million. “We are also very grateful to our many BOC employees who have participated in Kitetime, a workplace initiative that encourages them to take annual leave and donate the pay from these hours to Redkite – as well as the many fun runs, competitions and fundraising efforts.” Further enquiries: Further enquiries: Suzanne Gibbs Head of Communications, RSP Email: suzanne.gibbs@boc.com Email ] Home BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project Vesna Olles [ Vesna Olles About Corporate History Senior Leadership Team Supply and Procurement What we do Vesna Olles Director Clean Energy and Strategy Vesna Olles is the Director Clean Energy and Strategy for BOC South Pacific.   She is responsible for strategic innovation, planning and business development for BOC South Pacific, which includes identifying and analysing opportunities that contribute to BOC’s strategic direction for LNG, hydrogen and alternative fuels.  Vesna has extensive experience in Australian and global blue-chip companies where she worked across major sectors including industrial, building and construction and gas sectors, in senior and general management positions spanning P&L management, marketing and engineering.  Since beginning her career with BOC, she has held multiple positions including General Manager, Sales & Marketing Transformation and General Manager, Channels Strategic Marketing.

It will significantly increase long-term CO2 reliability and supply for many Australian industries.   The Gippsland Basin Joint Venture is a 50-50 joint venture between Esso Australia Resources Pty Ltd (Esso) and Woodside Energy Pty Ltd. Under the agreement, the Gippsland Basin Joint Venture will capture and send CO2 from its Longford Gas Conditioning Plant directly to BOC’s new facility.  John Evans, Managing Director of BOC South Pacific said the new facility would increase BOC’s capacity to supply the highest standard of carbon dioxide to customers in Australia and New Zealand.  “BOC is building new infrastructure to ensure long-term supply security of an essential gas used in many industries including food processing and packaging, beverage, hospitality, desalination, medical, manufacturing and water treatment,” said Mr Evans.  “This significant investment is part of our commitment to develop local supply partnerships and expand our production capability to meet the future needs of our customers and support growth across the South Pacific Region.  “With the latest technologies and processes in quality control and efficiency, BOC’s new CO2 facility will exceed internationally recognised food and beverage standards.” Esso Australia Chairman Dylan Pugh said the agreement demonstrates how Esso is taking a leading role in decarbonising its operations while still providing products that are essential for everyday life. “Through this partnership with BOC, we will transform what is effectively a waste stream into a product of beneficial use for Australian businesses in the food, beverage, hospitality, manufacturing and medical industries,” said Mr Pugh.   “Esso has a long history of providing reliable energy to Australia, whether it’s powering industry, heating our homes, or fuelling our barbecues, and this partnership will also see Gippsland put the fizz in our drinks.” Woodside Energy Executive Vice President Marketing and Trading Mark Abbotsford said the new agreement was a great example of how businesses can work together to improve societal and environmental outcomes. “Beyond providing energy to keep lights on and support industry, this is one of the many ways that Woodside Energy is collaborating to ensure the reliable and sustainable supply of essential products the community needs and enjoys,” said Mr Abbotsford. “This agreement will support key sectors in our economy, new opportunities for regional jobs as well as our own decarbonisation goals.” Wellington Shire Council Mayor, Cr Ian Bye welcomed BOC to the region in its partnership with Esso, which already has a long-standing relationship with the local community. “This partnership will result in real positives for our region, not only in the jobs created during construction, but also in the role our community will play in providing this important product to the beverage industry,” said Cr Bye. Scoping for the project is well underway with construction expected to commence in 2022, subject to regulatory approvals. Around 60 jobs will be created during the construction phase, with the facility expected to be operational in 2024.  About BOC:  BOC, a Linde company, supplies compressed and bulk gases, chemicals and equipment across the South Pacific region.

Community [ Community There are no higher priorities for BOC as an organisation than the health and safety of our employees, customers, suppliers and supporting communities where we work and live. BOC are proud and passionate supporters of Redkite, a national cancer charity that provides assistance to children, young people and their families through the cancer journey and Road Safety Education (RSE) program, a community-based, specialist education initiative providing driver safety education to secondary school students.  Please see below for more information about these organisations. Redkite is a national charity that supports children, young people and their family through the cancer journey. Redkite is there from the moment of diagnosis, throughout the rigorous treatment regimes and beyond by providing vital emotional support, financial relief and educational services. Redkite provides essential and practical support for the whole family from the moment of diagnosis, throughout treatment and on return home. BOC staff and families are committed to doing what they can to help the inspirational Redkite team. Volunteering at Redkite events and fundraising activities are just a few ways we lend a hand. BOC became the first major corporate partner of Redkite in 1998, when it was a small yet growing charity then known as The Malcolm Sargeant Cancer Fund for Children. BOC is the major cash sponsor of the Corporate Quiz nights throughout Australia. Employees both attend and volunteer to help at the quizzes. Our relationship with Redkite is even more special due to the dedication and commitment of BOC staff and their families. BOC supports Redkite throughout the year with various fundraising activities, including donating proceeds raised from the City to Surf and Kitetime which is an opportunity for staff to take annual leave and their pay for these leave hours is donated to Redkite.   Visit the Redkite website or call 1800 334 771  → Road Safety Education Limited (RSE) is a not-for-profit organisation that delivers highly effective, evidence-based road safety education programs which adhere to recognised “best practice” guidelines to reduce the incidence of youth road trauma in our communities. BOC became the founding sponsor of RSE and the RYDA Program when it was a small yet growing community initiative.  Through the sponsorship money BOC have contributed, RSE have been able to expand the program from being a local NSW initiative to venues across Australia and New Zealand.  We are most proud to be the Founding Sponsor of RSE and the RYDA Program. RYDA, the flagship program, involves six interactive sessions presented by road safety professionals. At the RYDA Program, attendees hear first-hand from the experts: Driving Instructors Polce Crash Survivors Drug & Alcohol Counsellors Financial Advisors The program has great synergies with BOC’s own safe driving culture – a key reason why the company is so passionate in supporting the development of this important youth education initiative for younger drivers.

The combination of heat, fuel (coal) and oxygen are all that are required to start a thermal event. This is often referred to as the fire triangle. Once started these thermal events can run indefinitely causing a significant hazard to workers in the area and causing mines huge financial losses, due to loss of product and mine outages. The use of nitrogen serves to remove the oxygen element in the fire triangle. The nitrogen will help stop an existing fire or prevent one starting. BOC has the ability to supply nitrogen in a wide range of flowrates and via alternate generation methods to mines across Australia and New Zealand, for the purposes of mine inertisation. BOC's demonstrated supply capability and the ability to put storage and vapourisation assets on the ground quickly is un-paralleled throughout the region. BOC has the region's biggest nitrogen production facilities combined with the most extensive network of distribution assets, ensuring we can respond quickly and effectively to any mine thermal event regardless of size. BOC's experience and available assets are a key reason that we have been the trusted partner for decades with NSW Mines Rescue. BOC has the ability to supply, install, operate and maintain equipment that can generate nitrogen on the customer's site. This technology is ideal for customers who need a steady, continuous demand of nitrogen for extended periods. The technology is usually in the form of either a pressure swing absorption system or a membrane system. These systems can be located in one place or made portable to meet the requirements of the customer. Want to find out more?

In global collaboration with BOC’s parent company the Linde Group, BOC is helping major seafood companies in Tasmania, New Zealand and elsewhere optimise production volume and meat quality whilst reducing their environmental footprint though cutting edge aquaculture application technologies. The new SOLVOX solution being unveiled in in Adelaide from June 7‐11, is the latest development in low and medium pressure oxygenation systems to take Australian fish farming to the next level. The flexible SOLVOX oxygen dissolving equipment can be applied to any fish tank to establish optimum environmental conditions, thus improving fish health and allowing for faster growth. BOC is a leading end‐to‐end supplier to fish farms, offering industrial gas supply, specialist oxygenation and control equipment, installation and consultant services, as well as training and optimisation of the system, supported by an international network of experts to develop tailored solutions. The exciting new technology now available to Australian and New Zealand aquaculture operators was developed at Linde’s Innovation Centre of Aquaculture which opened in Norway in 2012. Located in Ålesund in the heart of the world’s most industrialised fish farming community, the centre features a range of highly equipped laboratories and number of test and demonstration aquaculture tanks. Leading aquaculture expert Kenneth Glomset, Market Development / Project Manager Aquaculture & Water Treatment from the Innovation Centre will attend the Adelaide conference to demonstrate the SOLVOX technology. Jon Hawton, BOC’s Market Manager – Food and Beverage said the new oxygen dissolution technologies were “streets ahead” of anything else currently available. “We are excited about the new SOLVOX technology range and are very pleased to be introducing it into Australia. The technology can be integrated into new or existing water distribution systems and tailored to suit most customer requirements,’’ he said. “Easy to install, the unit can be retrofitted into the pipework of existing fish tanks to oxygenate the entire flow entering the tank.” Maintaining proper oxygen levels ‐ in fresh water or salt water ‐ is important to enable the fish to combat disease and leads to stable production and economic benefits for the farmer. The correct dissolved oxygen level for optimal fish growth depends on species, size, feeding rate, activity level and water temperature. In closed or recycled systems, increased oxygen saturation levels are essential for fish survival. The dissolution of oxygen and transfer rate is greatly improved when using pure oxygen as opposed to air; this significantly reduces pressure requirements and pumping power and avoids the risk of super saturation. SOLVOX offers a unique low‐pressure oxygenation system which significantly increases fish production volume, optimises fish meat quality and considerably improves fish farming operations from an environmental standpoint. SOLVOX is a combined oxygenation and flow system which not only dissolves the optimal amount of oxygen in the inlet water flow, but also distributes it evenly at an adjustable flow pattern through the tank, ensuring fish stock physically benefit from exercise against the flow. The flow regime can be fully tailored according to fish size, stock density and fish species, such as salmon or cod. Due to its high efficiency, very low energy requirements and the positive effects of creating and maintaining an optimal environment for fish, SOLVOX can significantly contribute to cost efficiencies in on‐land fish production. In addition, the ability to produce fish from infancy to maturity in on‐land tanks has significant environmental benefits. The water flowing through fish tanks can be recycled to a high extent with excrements and feed residues filtered out effectively. As such, pollution to the marine environment and the possible spread of disease to wild fish is prevented. The key benefits of the SOLVOX range are: Reduced fish mortality Improved feed conversion rate Improved growth rate Increased stocking densities Healthier, hence higher quality fish The SOLVOX systems will be on display at the BOC stand at the World Aquaculture Adelaide Conference www.aquaculture.org.au at the Adelaide Convention Centre from June 7‐11 2014.

'Arc Eye' is one of the most common injuries suffered. Eye problems are probably the most common type of injury sustained by welders. The hazards to eyes in welding can be conveniently divided into three main groups: Non-ionising Radiation. Foreign Bodies. Fumes and Gases. These groups will be considered separately below, along with advice on protective measures which should be taken to avoid injury. Non-ionising Radiation All welding arcs produce radiation, but as the energy ranges in the arcs are limited only certain wavelengths are generated. This radiation is divided into three categories Ultraviolet (UV), Visible Light and Infrared (IR). Of these three UV is the most likely to cause injury because its effects are not noticed by any of the senses at the time of exposure and so the effects only become apparent sometime later. Arc welding and cutting processes produce all three forms of radiation UV, visible and IR, and present a greater hazard to the eyes than oxy-fuel gas flames which only produce visible and IR radiation. Ultraviolet Radiation Ultraviolet radiation is generated by arc welding, cutting and gouging processes but not by fuel gas processes. The most well known, and probable the most frequently suffered, effect from welding arcs is 'Arc eye' or 'welders flash' and this is caused by the effect of UV radiation on the outer eye. Visible Light Intense visible light may be generated by both electric arc and fuel gas processes. Prolonged exposure could lead to retinal burns, either photochemical or thermal, but it would be very difficult to work with such high levels of glare. In such situations the eye will naturally react to reduce exposure. Infrared Radiation The intense heat of IR from both electric arc and fuel gas processes can cause retinal burns and cataracts. Protection The best protection for avoiding radiation damage to the eyes is to NEVER look at a welding arc without proper eye protection, however tempting that may be. A wide range of filter glasses for welding helmets, screens and goggles are available for both gas and arc welding. One of the most common ways a welder can catch Arc Eye is by initiating the arc before having the welding helmet in place over the eyes. First Aid Should a welder or other worker get a "flash", then arc eye drops can be applied by medical staff before going home and this will prevent the onset of arc eye, although the eyes may still feel a bit sore. Similarly, if arc eye does come on while still at work, it can be treated by on-site medical staff, or the patient can be taken to hospital or a medical centre. Foreign Bodies Welders have a high incidence of eye injury due to foreign bodies, such as slag, spatter, sparks, dust and grit. Wire and chemicals can also present a hazard if mishandled. Slag Particles can enter the eye, if not protected, during de-slagging. As the slag is often removed while still hot, the injury can be compounded by additional corneal burns. Spatter Spatter from the welding process can cause quite nasty injuries because of its temperature and velocity. Grinding sparks, dust and grit Debris from the grinding disks can get into the eye of the operator, and other workers at some distance from the actual grinding operation. Chemicals Chemicals used before and after welding such as degreasing and cleaning fluids, acetone, dye penetrant, acidic or caustic etching solutions, can be splashed into unprotected eyes, causing nasty injuries. Protection Many welders do not wear safety glasses or other form of eye protection when not actually welding, even when carrying out high-risk activities like de-slagging and it is this lack of protection which increases the number of incidence of this type of accident. It is possible, when working in close proximity to other welders, that slag injury may be attributed to another welders activities, it is therefore a wise precaution to wear eye protection at all times in these circumstances. First Aid In many cases, a foreign body in the eye can be seen on examination, and removed with care by a suitably qualified person. The eye can also be washed with sterile saline solution and this will often move the particle. If the eye is painful or the particle cannot be removed easily medical advice must be sought. Any eye injury due to a foreign body should be examined and treated by suitably trained nurses, if they are present on site at the time of the accident. Fumes and Gases Particulate fumes and gases can irritate or damage the eye. It is known that conjunctivitis may be caused by dust or fume associated with welding. Contact Lenses and Welding Every year there are reports in newspapers that contact lenses have been fused to welders eyes by the arc, causing nasty injuries. ] Home Product Solutions & Operations Health & Safety Welding & Cutting Hazards Eyes BOC Australia - A Linde company BOC Gas: Heatstrip Outdoor Heater Offer [ BOC Gas: Heatstrip Outdoor Heater Offer ] Home BOC Gas: Heatstrip Outdoor Heater Offer BOC Gas: Thanks For Referring A Friend To BOC [ BOC Gas: Thanks For Referring A Friend To BOC ] Home BOC Gas: Thanks For Referring A Friend To BOC Modified Atmosphere Packaging [ Modified Atmosphere Packaging Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) Please select Discover the ultimate combination for freshness Your partner for success Gases play an increasingly significant role in today’s food industry, where they are used for chilling, deep-freezing and Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP).

Introducing pure oxygen into your metal production operations can result in a more efficient use of your resources, improved productivity and lower costs. And because our injection technologies have been installed worldwide, you can trust our expertise and experience to boost your business. COJET® Gas Injection Our COJET® Gas Injection system uses a process and injector nozzle that delivers a 1.5-meter laser-like coherent jet of oxygen at supersonic speeds into the molten bath in an electric arc furnace. The fixed, wall-mounted injector nozzle retains the original diameter and velocity of the oxygen jet, delivering precise amounts of oxygen to the steel bath with less cavity formation and splash compared to traditional manipulators. Once the oxygen jet impinges on the steel bath, the concentrated momentum of the oxygen beam dissipates in the steel as fine bubbles, providing deep penetration and effective slag-metal mixing. The nozzle also operates as a conventional sidewall burner to melt scrap and as a supplemental oxygen source for post-combustion, improving furnace productivity and decreasing power consumption. In addition, COJET Gas Injection Technology allows for automatic furnace operation, decreases metal production costs through lower power consumption, extended furnace life, decreased maintenance and decreases refractory erosion, arc flare damage and maintenance gunning. It also enhances slag foaming, speeds decarburisation, eliminates the need for lance manipulators, decreases splashing and improves slag-metal stirring. Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) Today, over 75% of the world’s stainless steel is made using the Argon Oxygen Decarburisation (AOD) process invented by Linde. AOD provides an economical way to refine stainless steel with minimal loss of precious elements thanks to argon dilution. AOD is also widely used for the production of specialty alloys such as silicon steels, tool steels, nickel-based alloys and cobalt-based alloys. It combines higher metallic yields with lower material costs and cleaner metal, coupled with increased productivity. Optifire® Fluidic Burner If you operate an electric arc furnace or any scrap melting furnace, you’ll want to add the productivity-boosting firepower of Linde’s OPTIFIRE ® fluidic burner to your plant. Linde’s OPTIFIRE® burner delivers big results: Increases productivity Improves heating uniformity Reduces heating time Helps to eliminate cold spots Makes efficient use of chemical energy The angle of the flame of this fixed wall mounted burner can be changed by up to 30O in the vertical and horizontal directions. A remote-controlled operation allows the flame to be directed at cold scrap or cold spots and accelerates the meltdown in the furnace. The burner does not use any moving part, providing worry-free operation which maximises your up-time and minimises your cost. Want to find out more?

This causes the rate of gold leach to increase, leading to improved gold recovery, reduced cyanide consumption and importantly, improved profitability for your business. The GOLDOX® Process The gold dissolution process occurs in the presence of cyanide and oxygen. Often, the demand for oxygen in this reaction is not satisfied as there are a number of side reactions which compete for the available oxygen. In addition, the forward reaction is favoured by excess oxygen & cyanide. The BOC solution to oxygen starvation in gold leaching is GOLDOX®.  Features of GOLDOX® Process: Custom designed solution for each application An injection system to help raise dissolved oxygen levels A number of injections systems based on our patented dissolution processes are utilised to efficiently dissolve oxygen. The EDR® Dissolution System Designed to build on the GOLDOX® process, the unique EDR® dissolution system utilises various configurations to disperse pressurised oxygen into the slurry stream. This allows gold mines to achieve increased dissolved oxygen levels within the leach circuit. Benefits of EDR® devices: Optimised oxygen consumption  Increase control of cyanide consumption  Increased gold recovery  Reduced chemical risks  Reduced “in tank furniture” Low maintenance hardwearing dissolver        No moving parts and increased wear resistance compared to other technologies GOLDOX® 2.0 Panels The updated GOLDOX® panels are BOC’s new design of oxygen flow measurement and control panels. These panels have been optimised to be used with BOC’s suite of GOLDOX® oxygen dissolution devices. Building on the highly successful GOLDOX® panels, additional features have been added to provide more value for our customers.  New features include: Standardised flow range designed to be used with BOC dissolution devices  Automatic water flush incorporated into design to prevent dissolver blockages  Feedback of oxygen flow rates back to customer’s control system  Automatic and manual oxygen control modes for optimised oxygen addition  Redundancy built in, in case of component failure. GOLDOX® Lances As part of the GOLDOX® range of application technology, the GOLDOX® lances are designed to inject oxygen into a pre-conditioning CIL or CIP tank.  The design of the lance has a number of key benefits over other offerings in the market. This includes: The ability to remove a lance while the tank is online  The ability to water-flush the lance and nozzle arrangement to maintain peak operability  The ability to water-flush the sheath surrounding the lance to ensure the lance can be removed easily  Hardwearing high-grade alumina ceramic nozzles available in a range of styles  Optimised design to deliver oxygen to the right place in the tank  Seamlessly integrated with a GOLDOX® oxygen dosing panel The simplicity of the GOLDOX® nozzles ensures that oxygen will be delivered to the right place, in the most cost effective and efficient manner.

Some of the steps we have taken to reduce the risk for our employees include: Banning all non-essential air travel both domestically and internationally since 9 March Banning non-essential visitors to all sites across the South Pacific Implementing rigorous social distancing at all sites as well as other risk mitigation actions including: Working from home where possible The frequency of cleaning of lunchrooms and change-rooms has been increased, and checks are in place to make sure cleaning is occurring as expected Non-essential production employees have been instructed to work from an alternate location Shift overlap times have been removed to minimise employee contact  At sites where there is only one shift, the employees have been separated into two separate teams  Providing ongoing access to employee assistance providers to support the mental health of all employees and their families  Continuity of supply  We also want to reassure you about the continuity of supply and mitigations that BOC and Elgas have in place for all our gas products and services. We have a long standing and comprehensive Contingency and Disaster Recovery Plan for all our facilities in South Pacific.  Nearly all of BOC gases are produced locally using BOC owned plants and equipment. Across Australia and New Zealand BOC has eight-cylinder filling sites and nine Air Separation Units producing our gases as well as five sources of carbon dioxide. We manage every step in the production, packaging, logistics and distribution of gas from creation to delivery to our customers. This ensures a flexible supply chain that can quickly respond to changing customer requirements in any location. Due to our multiple production sites we have the unique ability to draw on our South Pacific network to ensure continuity if one or even multiple BOC production plants are temporarily closed.  Elgas has the most diverse LPG supply chain in Australia and New Zealand with access to local production sources via ship, road tanker or both. Elgas owns two major LPG storage facilities in Australia, the Elgas Cavern and the Elgas Dandenong Bulk Terminal, and is also a major shareholder in the Liquigas LPG Terminals across New Zealand. Aside from major terminals Elgas also has an extensive branch and depot network with over seventy LPG tanker and cylinder filling facilities across Australia and New Zealand.   Our unique distribution network provides robust delivery capabilities to support and supply products and services to BOC and Elgas customers during emergency situations such as this. We have the largest LPG transport fleet in Australia with over 120 LPG trailers, 130 rigid tankers and over 250 dedicated cylinder delivery vehicles – all staffed by local people. Medical gas supply and patient safety   Due to an anticipated increase in medical gas requirements as a result of the ongoing escalation of COVID-19, BOC has over the past six weeks taken proactive steps to assist us in meeting an increase in demand and to ensure patient safety including: Increased safety stock holdings of medical gases throughout our network of production sites and distribution points Additional stocks have been moved away from our major filling facilities to key strategic sites, near major population densities. This has been implemented to mitigate risks if one of our major filling sites is required to temporarily close. Implementation of dedicated ‘medical cylinder filling employees’ that work separately from the rest of the workforce  We have also taken steps to minimise the risk to the most vulnerable in our communities, our elderly. As a key supplier of medical gas and equipment to hospitals, medical facilities and aged care facilities we have now implemented dedicated aged care delivery trucks in our capital cities. By doing this we minimise the risk of transference to an aged care facility from other medical facilities.   Call centre and customer support  BOC and Elgas have locally based call centres in Australia and New Zealand, and we are already transitioning these centres to a remote working model to ensure ongoing customer support throughout this challenging time. Should you need support please contact: Australia: BOC on contact@boc.com or call Elgas on 131 161.  New Zealand: BOC on sales@boc.com or call Elgas on 0800 435 427 We will continue to monitor the situation and work with government, our customers and in particular our health and medical customers to ensure that we are able to continue providing our critical gases where and when they are needed.

Our procurement process ensures goods and services are purchased in a way that is ethical, safe and environmentally conscious. Category Management Process Procurement at BOC operates under a Category Management (CM) Framework. CM is a comprehensive end-to-end engagement model for defining business needs and implementing the most suitable sourcing solution. A sequential and data-driven process is applied to ensure value for BOC and minimise the risk of non-compliance during post contract implementation. Category Sourcing BOC uses a range a of ‘go to market’ strategies to ensure competitive “Total Cost of Ownership” proposals are sought from the market. The “go to market” strategy is selected according to the requirements of the procurement need, and can include: Multi-supplier proposals Single source supplier proposals Request for information Formal request for tender Request for quotation Reverse auction BOC uses and therefore encourages the use of e-Procurement and highly values suppliers that offer and invest in such e-commerce solutions (e.g. Punch-out, catalogue systems, portals, etc). Ongoing Supplier Relations Through the use of ‘living’ contracts, both the supplier and BOC will have an understanding of each other’s objectives and will actively work to ensure that these are met and provide value. BOC will meet with its suppliers to provide open and honest feedback about the relationship and will use these meetings to drive performance. BOC has a philosophy of continuous improvement with its suppliers and works under Six Sigma methodologies to drive efficiency. Our objective is to reduce costs while improving value to BOC. The Procurement Department endeavours to treat all parties involved in the CM process fairly. Payment Terms To ensure timely payment, suppliers must submit accurate invoices to the Accounts Payable Department at BOC. The invoice must contain a Purchase Order number and there is a risk of non-payment if a purchase order has not been received. The invoice must also show the correct costs, quantities, description of the goods or services provided and must have completed delivery or properly performed the service required. If milestone payments are required, these must be negotiated and documented in a contract before any work is started. It is BOC policy to pay its suppliers thirty two (32) days from month end following receipt of an invoice. For example, if an invoice is submitted on the 16th of April, payment will be on the 1st June and an invoice submitted on the 30th April will also be paid on the 1st June. Supplier Endorsements Being a supplier of goods or services to BOC does not mean that the supplier is endorsed by BOC. If a supplier wishes to use any material that relates to BOC or The Linde Group then formal approval of that material must be sought from BOC. References may only be obtained from BOC if the supplier is in a contracted strategic relationship with BOC.

As part of a recently signed collaboration agreement, BOC will contribute in-kind gas products and technical expertise worth in excess of $100,000 for the two-year project now underway at CSIRO’s test site in Pullenvale, Brisbane. BOC will supply ammonia, which will be cracked and purified into pure hydrogen by the modular membrane technology unit developed by CSIRO. BOC engineers will also assist with compressing the hydrogen and storing it in special cylinder packs, then distributing it to customers on the Australian east coast for use in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. General Manager Hydrogen Alex Dronoff says BOC is proud to be working with CSIRO researchers as they take a significant step forward in hydrogen technology, paving the way for a renewable hydrogen export market that could meet rising demand in emerging markets Europe, Japan and South Korea. “As the only global organisation with expertise and technology that covers the entire hydrogen supply chain, BOC and The Linde Group are committed to working with Australian researchers and industry to help advance the global transition towards clean hydrogen for mobility and energy. “We look forward to sharing our extensive experience with CSIRO as they enter the final development stages of the membrane technology device – providing advice on generation and storage, right through to transportation and refuelling of hydrogen-powered vehicles.”       CSIRO Energy Director Karl Rodrigues is excited by the growing global momentum to develop hydrogen energy systems, and the potential for a hydrogen export industry to benefit Australia. “We’re pleased to be partnering with industry – including BOC – and look forward to applying CSIRO innovation to facilitate the creation of new low emissions energy markets." Dronoff adds the CSIRO project is a vital technology breakthrough that complements much of the pioneering work that The Linde Group has been driving for decades. “With more than 150 fuelling stations built worldwide and over 1.5 million refuelling operations completed, Linde is continuously working on the expansion of hydrogen infrastructure. In August 2016 Linde launched BeeZero, the world’s first hydrogen-powered carsharing service – and is a joint partner of the Energie Park Mainz project that produces and stores renewable hydrogen for mobility applications generated by electrolysis through wind energy at a grid-relevant scale. “With this CSIRO technology, it will be easier and faster to replicate this success on an even larger scale. We are certainly excited by the significant role that Australia will play in making renewable hydrogen a fuel of the future.” For more information on the CSIRO project, click here .

Proper training and 'safe working practices' can markedly reduce the risks. The possibility of electric shock is one of the most serious risks encountered by a welder. Touching 'live' electrical components, including the electrode and the work piece, can result in serious a burn injury or, more seriously, electric shock. Electric shock can kill, either by direct action on the body, or by a resultant fall, if working at height. Most electrical accidents are avoidable and occur as a result of carelessness, lack of training, shoddy workmanship or due to faulty equipment. Welders must never become complacent about the hazards associated with electric arc welding and safe working practices should be followed at all times. What Is It? Electricity is a form of energy associated with the movement of electrons and protons in a conducting medium e.g. copper wire. The amount of electricity flowing is measured in 'amperes' and the pressure, or potential is measured in 'volts'.  Electricity will only flow when a circuit is completed and a potential difference exists in the circuit. Sources In welding there are many sources of electrical hazard over and above those encountered in everyday life. These include the welding power plant, auxiliary welding equipment such as cables, wire feed units, welding torches and electrode holders plus other associated tools and equipment such as grinders and electrode ovens etc. Serious injury can also result from contact with the welding circuit, and shocks from this source are probably the most frequently experienced by welders. Increased hazard situations If the welder is hot and perspiring, or if he or she is working in wet, damp, hot, humid or cramped conditions, the skin and clothing may become wet. Effects of Exposure The passage of an electric current through the body can cause severe injury and even death. The severity of the injury will depend on several factors including the actual current and voltage, the duration of current flow and how healthy the victim is. Limits and Legislation Welding equipment should be installed in accordance with international, national, or local standards and the manufacturer's instructions and tested to ensure it is correctly wired in, properly 'earthed', and safe to use. Control and Prevention Control of electrical hazards and prevention of electrical accidents should be paramount at all stages of a welding operation, from initial installation of the equipment, to its use and subsequent maintenance. Regulations, many industry codes of practice and safety guidance documents have been issued over the years regarding the safe use of electrical equipment and protective clothing to be worn when welding. Installation and Maintenance of Welding Equipment Only qualified personnel should install welding power sources. At this stage they should ensure that the mains supply isolator switch is correctly installed, has adequate power rating for the equipment and the socket plug connector is correctly wired. All inspections should be recorded, including an accurate record of findings. Use of Welding Equipment Before commencement of welding the welder should ascertain that all electrical connections are clean, tightly fixed and properly protected. Welders should also check that welding leads, work return leads and earth leads are capable of carrying the maximum operating current without overheating and are in good condition with no disruptions in the insulation and no exposed metal connectors. It is advisable that welders should not wear rings, bracelets, chains or metal watchstraps when welding as these items are good conductors of electricity and may result in serious burn injuries. General Advice There should be an easily accessible means of switching off the welding power source at the mains at the end of each work period or in the event of an emergency. Ancillary Equipment LVSD (low voltage safety devices) should be used whenever possible when MMA welding. These devices ensure that only low voltage is present at the electrode holder when no welding is taking place. First Aid Whatever the cause of the shock, never touch the casualty with bare hands until the casualty is no longer in contact with the electrical source or there is a risk of getting an electric shock yourself. If someone has had an electric shock and is still in contact with the source, do not touch the casualty until contact with the source has been broken. In all cases of electric shock, the casualty should be taken to hospital for treatment or assessed by a doctor.

There are two main forms of chromium found in welding, trivalent, Cr3+, and hexavalent, Cr6+. Hexavalent chromium is considered the more hazardous of the two forms, and in welding fume it is a suspected human carcinogen. Chromium is an element present in the consumables and parent material of stainless steels, heat-resisting steels, some creep-resisting steels, some high nickel alloys, and armour plate. It may also be present in some consumables used for hardfacing. Chromium is also used as a coating for other materials, such as chrome plating, to give corrosion protection to steel, or to give a pleasing aesthetic appearance. Chromium, as chromate, may also be found as a constituent of some industrial paints. Welding or cutting materials containing chromium is likely to give chromium compounds in any particulate fume that is generated by the process. Whether it presents a significant hazard to health depends on the concentration and the duration of exposure. Chromium Formation in Welding When arc welding takes place on materials containing chromium, or by using consumables containing chromium, some of the chromium will be volatilised and escape from the protective gases in and around the arc. This metal vapour will be oxidised by the atmosphere to give particulate fume. Depending on the specific welding process being used chromium can be present in the fume in several different valency states, including trivalent, Cr3+; and hexavalent, Cr6. Effects of Exposure The major toxic effects of chromium in industry are concentrated on the nose, the skin and the lungs. The nose or, more specifically, the mucous membranes of the nasal septum, together with the skin of the hands and forearm, are the areas targeted by chromic acid and its salts. Control Measures When welding stainless steels using the MMA process there is a higher level of particulate fume generated than with MIG welding. However, an analysis of the fume generated would show that the MIG fume has a higher percentage of chromium present, typically 10 to 14%, this can be compared to about 6 to 8% for MMA. ] Home Product Solutions & Operations Health & Safety Welding & Cutting Hazards Chromium in Fume BOC Gas: BOC Flexigas G Plan 36 - Acetylene Gas Plan $499.

BOC Gas: Globally Harmonised System of Classification [ BOC Gas: Globally Harmonised System of Classification Why are some of BOC’s cylinder labels and Safety Data Sheets changing? The Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) is an internationally agreed system of chemical classification and hazard communication through labelling and Safety Data Sheets (SDS). The GHS is published by the United Nations. Download PDF As of January 2017, the new Australian Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) Regulations require an updated system of labelling for chemicals based on the GHS1. As a result, manufacturers and importers of hazardous chemicals have until 31 December 2016 to move to the new labelling system. This is an industry-wide change across Australia and more detailed information is available through: Safe Work Australia Labelling of Workplace Hazardous Chemicals – Code of Practice. This Code of Practice is under section 274 of the Work Health and Safety Act (WHS Act). Most gases are classified as a hazardous chemical. Therefore in preparation for January 2017, BOC will be updating labels and SDS’s to be compliant with GHS. Due to the size of the cylinder fleet, we have already started this process. As a result, you may start noticing that the labels on your gas cylinders and SDS’s vary slightly so that they are now compliant with GHS. Food Fresh Carbon Dioxide The new GHS compliant label for Food Fresh Carbon Dioxide supplied in gas withdrawal cylinders states the product is liquified. Please note: there have been no changes to the product itself or the way it is packaged. The liquified status simply refers to the state the product is stored in the cylinder. For gas withdrawal, product is extracted from the top of the cylinder where it is in a gaseous state. Liquid withdrawal cylinders are identified by two black strips painted vertically on each side, an extra 'E' at the end of the gas code and some also include an additional 'Caution: Liquid Supply Cylinder' sticker. Product is extracted from these cylinders via an eductor dip tube reaching down to the liquid product at the bottom. Gas Withdrawal Gas Code Liquid Withdrawal Gas Code 082D 082DE 082VT 082EE 082F 082FE 082G 082GE Always refer to the SDS prior to using a gas. Please note: the GHS compliant label for some special gases may appear different to the below. 1. There are several types of hazardous chemical that are excluded from the labelling provisions under Regulation 335 or exempted from coverage from all provisions in Part 7.1 of the WHS Regulations. One exemption is therapeutic goods which are regarded as correctly labelled under the WHS Regulations when labelled in accordance with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) requirements and in a form: Intended for intake or administration to or by a patient or consumer, or Intended for use for therapeutic purposes. Accordingly, when these conditions are met, existing labels and Safety Data Sheets for these goods are considered to comply with WHS regulations. ] Home BOC Gas: Globally Harmonised System of Classification BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project [ BOC to collaborate with CSIRO on revolutionary $3.4m hydrogen project News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media Future of cylinders is here with GENIE® Press Releases Future of cylinders is here with GENIE® Leading gases and engineering company BOC has today announced its GENIE® cylinder in nitrogen. Now available in 10 litre and 20 litre sizes across Australia, the GENIE® is 30 percent lighter than an equivalent steel cylinder and holds 39 percent more nitrogen. The arrival of the GENIE® marks a new era in gas cylinder technology, with leading design that enhances portability, durability and safety for small volume nitrogen users across many industries including refrigeration and automotive. “GENIE® in nitrogen is an ideal companion for any work project,” said Dr Chris Barnes – General Manager, Gases Product Management. “The wide base and easy-grip handles make it easy to transport and also protects the regulator. It has a stable wheel base that can be detached if needed via a patented clip-on system. ” Designed to withstand tough all-weather environments, the GENIE® comprises of a steel lined carbon fibre wrapped pressure vessel, encased within a tough high density polyethylene jacket, eliminating rust from the cylinder base.  “The GENIE® technology will help workers be more efficient on the job and have greater visibility of usage. Less time is spent reordering and replacing cylinders as gas is filled at a pressure of 300 bar, allowing an increase in volume compared to equivalent steel cylinders. “A digital display with built-in intelligence also provides better visibility on the amount of gas remaining in the cylinder and how long it will last based on usage. This is a big help when planning jobs.”   Since 2010, BOC has upgraded half a million cylinders in its fleet and invested over $15 million building a world leading cylinder testing facility. The GENIE® in Nitrogen is now available in Australia, call 131 262 or visit www.boc.com.au. GENIE® in Argon will be available later in 2017.

Dross may contain between 18 to 80% of valuable aluminum. BOC can help you develop your aluminum recovery process and increase your aluminum recovery rate by applying argon to your dross cooling process. Aluminum dross cooling is a process where the dross is skimmed and cooled in an inert gas atmosphere. It is important to work quickly and efficiently to prevent the aluminum from oxidising, which can happen if the dross is not cooled down fast enough and remains exposed to air.

Welding of certain materials can give rise to fume containing freshly formed metal oxide fume. If inhaled in sufficient concentration it can produce a reaction similar to a bout of flu. This is what is commonly known as Metal Fume Fever. Although it normally lasts no more than a day, it is possible to get an attack of fume fever more than once. However, there is no evidence to suggest that repeated bouts cause cumulative damage. The metal oxides usually associated with metal fume fever are those of zinc and copper, although others can have the same effects. In welding and cutting it is working with copper alloys, galvanised and some painted components that are most likely to this problem. Alternative names for metal fume fever include, 'Zinc Fume Fever', 'Brass Chills' or 'Brass Founders Ague'. These derive from the regular occurrence of fume fever in workers employed in brass foundries, where zinc, with its low boiling point (907°C), would boil-off when added to molten copper at 1083°C, forming zinc oxide in the air. Symptoms Metal Fume Fever is an acute, 'flu-like' attack brought on by exposure to freshly formed metal oxide fume. Causes Fume Fever is caused by inhalation of freshly formed metal oxide fume. Any fresh metal oxide can cause it but it is most frequently associated with zinc, from welding brasses, galvanized iron and steel, other alloys containing zinc and in some instances zinc rich primers and paints. Control Measures The simplest way to avoid getting metal fume fever is to use a suitable fume extractor, correctly positioned, to take the metal oxide fume away from the welders' breathing zone. The most suitable kind of extractor is a high volume, low velocity unit, as this type can be used with all welding processes, including TIG and other gas-shielded processes, without disrupting the gas shield. ] Home Product Solutions & Operations Health & Safety Welding & Cutting Hazards Metal Fume Fever BOC opens largest merchant CO2 processing facility in the South Pacific [ BOC opens largest merchant CO2 processing facility in the South Pacific News & Media Press Releases Case Studies Media Contact Competitions AU BOC @ Social Media BOC opens largest merchant CO2 processing facility in the South Pacific Press Releases New facility in Longford, Victoria will have the capacity to produce more than 60,000 tonnes of beverage grade CO2 annually, boosting supply to Australian industries   Longford, Australia. 10 December 2024: Leading gas and engineering company BOC, a Linde company, has today opened the South Pacific region’s largest merchant carbon dioxide (CO2) processing facility in Longford, Victoria.

It will be the first service station in Australia with hydrogen refuelling capability. The Queensland Government’s current fleet of five hydrogen-powered Hyundai NEXOs will be the first to use the new refueller to be opened later in the year. BOC will supply and install the state-of-the-art Linde hydrogen refuelling station. It will dispense green hydrogen produced by BOC at its Bulwer Island production site, just 10 minutes from the bp Truckstop in Lytton. The green hydrogen will be produced by a 220 kW electrolyser powered by solar energy generated onsite. John Evans, Managing Director of BOC South Pacific said the partnership with bp Australia was an important step forward in developing a hydrogen refuelling service station network in Queensland. “BOC is committed to supporting the development of hydrogen as a zero emissions fuel and decarbonising the transport sector in Australia,” said Mr Evans. “Working closely with our partner bp we will demonstrate how state-of-the-art hydrogen refuelling stations can be safely integrated into the existing service station network, paving the way for more infrastructure to facilitate hydrogen trucks and buses." “We look forward to opening this facility to the public in the future, and working with our project partners ARENA, the Queensland Government and bp to showcase a world class end-to-end green hydrogen production, storage, supply and refuelling solution.” Frédéric Baudry, president, bp Australia and SVP fuels & low carbon solutions, Asia Pacific, said: "bp is proud to be partnering with BOC and the Queensland Government in the development of Australia’s first green hydrogen refueller on an existing service station." "Hydrogen will play an important part in the future energy and mobility mix, and partnerships – such as this one between Government, BOC and bp – will be essential in decarbonizing industry and transport. bp has extensive industrial experience with hydrogen and is now linking that with our expertise in supplying energy to the world, creating end-to-end offers and decarbonisation solutions for our customers. We are excited to be developing and deploying innovative offers that meet the changing mobility needs of our customers' today and for the future.” Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen Mick De Brenni said it was critical that locally made fuel continued to be available to power our heavy transport sector as it moved to lower its emissions and looked forward to supporting more green hydrogen initiatives from traditional fuel suppliers. “The importance of this for our economic future cannot be overstated because this is another link in the supply chain, ensuring Queensland cements its status as a global force in the hydrogen industry,” said Minister de Brenni. “From hydrogen-powered trucks and coaches to trains and marine vessels, we are exploring every opportunity to capitalise on the opportunities of Queensland’s energy transformation.” The hydrogen refuelling station will have capacity to refill a hydrogen car in 3-5 minutes and will in future be made available to drivers with a bp plus card who register with bp for access to the supply of hydrogen. Linde has installed over 200 hydrogen refuelling stations globally and successfully completed the hydrogen refuelling of over 1.5 million cars, buses and forklifts.

The choice between piston and liquid withdrawal overpressure cylinders, otherwise known as traditional cylinders with overpressure for liquid hydrocarbon mixtures, is an important one – with a number of factors to be considered before a decision is made on the most suitable mixture type. Factors such as precision, maintenance, costs and certification levels should be considered to ensure optimum accuracy and value for money. To assist in this decision, BOC conducted a number of simulations to determine the effects of hydrocarbon mixtures in contact with overpressure gas including helium, hydrogen and nitrogen. The results are important to consider when choosing between a piston cylinder and a traditional cylinder, and when deciding how to use a traditional cylinder. This will help laboratory managers and maintenance teams using piston cylinders or traditional cylinders better understand the benefits and disadvantages of each. BOC can assist with this by providing detailed composition use charts for your mixture of choice upon request.

Liquid nitrogen (LIN) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are popular cooling agents due to the low boiling point of LIN (-196°C) and the low sublimation point of CO2 (-78,5°C). This enables large-scale heat transfer in a short time period. BOC's sub-zero freezers use liquid nitrogen to cool down parts inside a treatment chamber. The liquid gas is sprayed through fine nozzles into the chamber, where it evaporates quickly and thus lowers the temperature. This optimises the parts’ micro-structure, transforming retained austenite into martensite. The temperature profiles are measured and precisely controlled by two sensors, making this method the ideal fit for the demanding requirements of aviation, aerospace and automotive industries.

Water Treatment With Ozone Ozone has been used in water treatment for a long time to get rid of contaminants and to reduce micro-pollutants in drinking water and for treating industrial wastewater with a high chemical oxygen demand (COD) as found in the textile, pharmaceutical and specialty chemicals industries.  Recently, more and more countries have been introducing regulations for the residual micro-pollutants in treated wastewater after conventional municipal biological treatment. Various advanced oxygenation process treatment trains have been tested for this purpose, and ozone has been proven to be very effective in dealing with these compounds.  In the corona-discharge production process, ozone is created by an electrical discharge to ambient air or oxygen. When using highly concentrated or pure oxygen instead of ambient air for the production of ozone, the following advantages arise: Higher ozone production  Smaller footprint  No pre-treatment of the feed gas is required Want to find out more?

Other hazards include inert gas, noise, heat, and fire. Welding fumes include both gaseous and particulate types. The MIG welding process is the most common welding process now used in manufacturing. It is capable of being used on a wide range of material types from common steels, to titanium. The MIG process produces a variety of hazards, not only to those carrying out the operation but also in many instances to others in the vicinity such as inspectors, labourers and even other welders. Some of the hazards encountered are specific to MIG welding while others are of a more general nature. Different hazards occur before welding commences, during welding and sometimes after welding has finished. When we look at the major hazards we will also consider when they may occur. Types of Hazards in MIG Welding The hazards encountered in MIG welding may be sub-divided into groups as follows: Electrical safety and Magnetic Fields Compressed gases, including inert gases Radiation Electrical Safety & Magnetic Fields Power sources for MIG welding and associated pieces of equipment, such as wire feed systems, welding guns, leads and connectors all require an electricity supply to operate. Power sources may operate from a three-phase supply, from industrial single-phase supply or even from a 13amp domestic power supply. It should always be remembered that electric shock can kill. Due to the potential severity of the hazard, the following is a guide on what to do before any MIG welding is started to reduce the risk of an electrical accident: - Only qualified personnel should be allowed to install MIG equipment. - The equipment must be tested to ensure it is operating correctly and safely before being put into service. During welding the possibility of electric shock is one of the most serious risks encountered by a welder. Most electrical accidents occur as a result of carelessness, poor workmanship or due to faulty equipment. The following points provide a guide to what to reduce the risks: - Welders should not remove panels from a welding power source if it stops working correctly. Touching a lead inside the welding set with the power still on can result in a serious primary voltage shock. - Never ignore a blown fuse, it is a warning that something is wrong. The following practice will help prevent electrical accidents: - When welding is temporarily interrupted welding guns should be placed where they are safe and the gun switch cannot be activated accidentally. Compressed Gases Shielding gases used for MIG welding may be 100% inert, 100% active, or a mixture of inert and active gases. Whatever their composition, the main risk to welders and others from the shielding gas is that of asphyxiation. Inert gases are not toxic, but will not support life. The following should be considered to ensure safety while this is being carried out: - Always use the correct regulator for the gas and ensure that it suitable for the pressure contained in the cylinder. - Never modify a regulator for use with another product. Radiation MIG welding produces electromagnetic radiation over a wide range of wavelengths. These wavelengths cover three distinct types of 'non-ionizing' radiation, namely, Ultraviolet (UV), Visible Light and Infrared (IR). MIG welding however, does not produce ionizing radiation. Some points to bear in mind are: - Radiation is only generated while the arc is generated and the amount emitted generally increases as the welding current increases. - Burns can be avoided by wearing proper protective clothing and ensuring no areas of skin are left exposed. Heat Sources of heat include welded components, the electrode holder and hot or discarded electrodes, and any of these can cause burns to the skin. A hot environment can cause the body to overheat, and this is known as Heat Stress. However those working in welding shops can reduce the risk by adhering to the following recommendation: Always assume all metal objects in a welding shop are hot. Welding Fume and Gases Welding fume is an unavoidable by-product of MIG welding, although fume generation from the process is generally low. However, the welder should still be aware of what fume is likely to be generated while welding is taking place and the potential hazards of exposure to the welding fume. Particulate Fume Particulate fume is mostly formed from vapourisation of the welding consumable. The following general statements are a rough indication of what the constituents of the particulate fume are likely to be: - Fume from MIG welding aluminium is mostly aluminium oxide. - Fume from MIG welding steel is mainly iron oxide plus a small amount of manganese oxide and other alloying elements. Gaseous Fume Welding processes with open arcs, such as MIG, are likely to promote the formation of gaseous fume as a result of the action of ultraviolet light and heat on atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen. The main factor controlling its production are: - Argon-rich shielding gases are more likely to promote ozone production than are helium-rich shielding gases or 100% carbon dioxide. Exposure to Fume Whilst all components of welding fume may present a risk to health, given a high enough concentration, some present a greater hazard than do others. The potential effect of exposure to welding fume depends upon: - The composition of the fume. - The volume of fume produced. Noise The MIG welding processes, like all others, generates noise. Some power sources, notably some pulsed MIG and synergic MIG sets, are noisier than others and some adivitionally generate high frequency noise that can affect hearing. Manual Handling Back injuries are one of the most common industrial injuries suffered by workers. Welding consumables may be heavy or awkward to lift. Confined Spaces Any of the hazards associated with MIG welding will be exacerbated when welding is carried out in a confined space. Solvents Flammable solvents may have been used to clean components prior to welding and may still be present around the welding area, presenting a fire or explosion hazard. The welder should allow all traces of any solvents to disappear from component surfaces and ensure no containers of solvent are in close proximity before welding starts. Workshop Safety General workshop safety is really a matter of common sense and good housekeeping and the following actions may be used to avoid accidents: - Maintain a tidy work area, especially free from trip hazards. - Keep walkways clear and free from welding cables, spare material, consumables, etc. Practical Considerations The advice given above is general in nature but forms a good overview of the potential hazards associated with the process. There are, however, things that can be done to help reduce the possibility of problems occurring in the workplace: Training There is a considerable amount of misinformation in the fabrication industry about the health hazards associated with welding. There is also a lack of understanding among welders as the how they can influence the type and severity of hazard. The main cause for this is often poor training and some welders appear to be unwilling to operate at welding conditions that will keep fume production to a minimum. Routine Maintenance, Safety Audit and Equipment Inspections Simple routine maintenance and a formalised system of safety audits on welding equipment has been shown to help reduce the number of safety related incidents within the industry. Personal Protective Equipment Welders should ensure that they wear appropriate clothing for the operation they are carrying out. Flame-retardant boiler suits, gloves or gauntlets, safety shoes, leather aprons, etc, should be in good condition and as free from oil, grease and moisture as is physically possible as these can reduce the effectiveness of the safety equipment. ] Home Product Solutions & Operations Health & Safety Welding & Cutting Hazards MIG welding Supply and Service [ Supply and Service Supply and Service Supply Options Supply Channels Services Services and Supply Helping you to stay competitive in an increasingly complex environment through a range of standard and customisable efficiency-enabling services.

This is the first mine in Australia to deploy hydrogen for transport and transition from diesel engines.   BOC will supply ITM electrolysers to produce renewable hydrogen through electrolysis. The electrolysers will have capacity to produce up to 180 kilograms of renewable hydrogen per day to power 10 hydrogen fuel cell coaches that carry 3,000 workers to and from the mine site every day.    A state-of-the-art Linde hydrogen refuelling station will also be supplied by BOC at a site in the Pilbara. Linde is at the forefront in the transition to clean hydrogen and has installed over 190 hydrogen fuelling stations and 80 hydrogen electrolysis plants worldwide.  John Evans, Managing Director, BOC South Pacific said the project will demonstrate BOC’s expertise in customised hydrogen solutions to suit the most challenging environments.   “BOC is proud to be the chosen partner in this exciting project that will demonstrate how renewable hydrogen can be used as a fuel for heavy vehicles in remote environments.   “Mining is a 24/7 operation which, together with the remoteness of the site means that reliability is essential. BOC provided a solution that recognised the criticality of the application and we collaborated with Fortescue to design an application to protect the electrolyser and refueller from the environment in the Pilbara region.   “The renewable hydrogen we will produce will help to reduce reliance on diesel for remotely located industries and therefore, add environmental value to our industrial customers.   “We look forward to working with Fortescue and our other partners to expand the use of hydrogen in heavy transport and remote applications - which are key priorities outlined in the Western Australian Renewable Hydrogen Strategy,” concluded Mr Evans.  The project is expected to be completed by early 2022.
