SUMMARY:Thermal Runaway: Managing Lithium-Ion Battery Risks in Waste and Recycling Operations
DESCRIPTION:Lithium-ion batteries have become the fastest-growing fire hazard in the waste and recycling industry\, causing millions in property damage and putting workers at serious risk. From electronics in residential collection to batteries hidden in trash compactors and sorting lines\, these devices can ignite with little warning and burn at extreme temperatures. This webinar equips you with the knowledge to prevent\, detect and respond to lithium-ion battery fires. We cover battery chemistry basics\, recognition and sorting strategies\, facility design considerations\, suppression system options\, emergency response protocols and employee training requirements. Learn from recent industry incidents\, understand what works and what doesn’t in fire suppression and develop a comprehensive battery safety plan for your operations—from collection routes to processing facilities. Also hear how the National Waste and Recycling Foundation is educating the public on how to properly dispose of batteries with its national battery safety campaign\, “Skip the Bin – Turn Your Batteries In!” featuring Woodsy Owl.

SUMMARY:Struck-By Prevention: Managing Vehicle-Pedestrian Interactions in Waste and Recycling Facilities Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Vehicle-pedestrian incidents represent one of the leading causes of fatalities in waste and recycling operations. With heavy equipment\, commercial trucks and workers often occupying the same space\, the potential for catastrophic struck-by incidents is ever-present. This webinar provides comprehensive strategies for separating people from moving vehicles and managing interactions where separation is unavoidable\, such as on landfill working faces\, tipping floors\, scale houses and yard operations. We cover site design considerations\, traffic control plans\, technology solutions (i.e.\, proximity detection\, cameras and alarms)\, administrative controls and the critical human factors that contribute to these incidents. Learn from incident investigations\, explore best practices from high-performing facilities and discover how to conduct effective risk assessments for your specific operational environment.
