Is hauling liquid nitrogen considered cryo?

We had one truck where the loading computer failed to stop the flow, and it was shooting a stream of LOX 4 feet out of the top of the tailer vent. Luckily the driver was inside shooting the breeze with me. The nice thing is; there isn't much of a mess to clean up.

During our monthly safety briefings there were almost always cryo burn 'incidents' and most of those were due to complacency.

 

Cryo burns are just the tip of the iceberg brother like the other poster said you could have a scale get stuck and overload a trailer. There is asphyxiation while in enclosed spaces, oxygen saturation on clothing, hot tank/first fills etc etc.
WEAR YOUR PPE! Remember your training, if not shure call someone, and don't panic if things go sideways.

 

I assume this means you won't be carrying a bunch of frozen bodies for future de-thawing ala Demolition man? Or a bunch of heads...like Ted Williams, Jerry Leaf, Dora Kent and others?

Sadly...it seems the rumor of Walt being preserved..err frozen is just a rumor.

Interesting thread. I learned something new today..beyond Walt being a ice cube for the future being a lie. X2

Just use your head in all facets of operations whether it's swinging a hammer, disconnecting a line or somebody working next to you.
Don't let yourself become distracted or complacent and you'll have a long incident free career.

 

Hey I suggested that a few posts back, classic flick.

 

I followed your suggestion and decided to post it. I wonder if that last scene was real.

 

I don't know but boy does it send a message.

 

Rememer Charlie is also another outstanding safety video that can be found on YouTube. If you have kids and what not it will make you remember we all want to go home as we left. It's trainig 101 for us former fuel/petroleum haulers.
