Which procedure must be followed when operating an eductor?

The correct procedure to follow when operating an eductor is the Emergency Operations Safety Standards (EOSS). Eductors, used for mixing fluids and transporting solids, can pose particular risks during operation, such as creating unintentional leaks or system failures. Following EOSS ensures that operators are equipped with the necessary protocols to manage emergencies that may arise during the operation, thereby enhancing safety and reducing risks to personnel and equipment.

In contrast, while Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Operations Safety Procedures (OSPs) also play important roles in guiding safe operations, EOSS is specifically tailored for emergency scenarios. The Hazardous Operations Manual provides important guidance for handling hazardous materials but may not focus exclusively on the operational context required for eductor use. Therefore, EOSS is the most appropriate choice for ensuring safety during the operation of an eductor.
