Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
Inhalation of dust causes irritation of upper respiratory system. Dust irritates eyes and skin. Ingestion causes abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pallor, shortness of breath, unconsciousness. (USCG, 1999)
Emergency and supportive treatment: Maintain on open airway and assist ventilation if necessary. Treat coma, hemolysis, hyperkalemia, and renal or hepatic failure if they occur. Massive hemolysis may require blood transfusions. To prevent renal failure resulting from deposition of free hemoglobin in the kidney tubules, administer intravenous fluids and sodium bicarbonate. Chlorates
This chemical is a noncombustible solid that increases the combustion of other substances. Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, or alcohol foam entinguishers. ... If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Notify local health and fire officials and pollution control agencies. Containers may explode in fire. From a secure, explosion-proof location, use water spray to cool exposed containers. If cooling streams are ineffective (venting sound increases in volume and pitch, tank discolors, or shows any signs of deforming), withdraw immediantly to a secure position.
Behavior in Fire: When involved in a fire, may cause an explosion. Irritating gases may be generated when heated. (USCG, 1999)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
For dry material: evacuate persons not wearing protective equipment from area of spill or leak until clean-up is complete. Remove all ignition sources. Collect powdered material in the most convenient and safe manner and deposit in sealed containers. Ventilate area after clean-up is complete. It may be necessary to contain and dispose of this chemical as a hazardous waste. If material or contamicated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaiminated waterways. For solution: evacuate and restrict persons not wearing protective equipment from area of spill or leak until clean-up is complete. Remove all ignition sources. Ventilate area of spill or leak. Absorb liquids in vermiculite, dry sand, earth, peat, carbon, or a similar material and deposit in sealed conatiners. It may be necessary to contain and dispose of this chemical as a hazardous waste. If material or containminated runoff enters waterways, notify doenstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Contact your Department of Environmental Protection or your regional office of EPA for specific recommendations. If employees are required to clean up sills, they must be property trained.
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from strong acids (such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, and nitirc), chemically active metals (such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, and zinc). Calcium chlorate must be stored to avoid contact with organic matter, ammonium compounds, aluminum, copper, cyanides, flammable vapors and other oxidizable materials since violent reactions occur. Avoid storage on any wooden floors. Friction, heat or physical shocks may cause calsium chlorate to ignite and explode. Wherever calcium chlorate is used, handled, manufactured, or stored, use explosion-proof electrical equipment and fittings.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

Calcium chlorate is a white crystalline solid. It forms a very flammable mixture with combustible materials and this mixture may be explosive if the combustible material is finely divided. The mixture can be ignited by friction. Contact with strong sulfuric acid can cause fires or explosions. When mixed with ammonium salts, spontaneous decomposition and ignition may result. Prolonged exposure of the material to fire or heat can result in an explosion. It is used in photography, in pyrotechnics, and as a herbicide.

Forms explosive mixtures with combustible, org or other easily oxidizable materials. /Calcium chlorate dihydrate/An oxidizing agent. Liberates explosive chlorine dioxide gas in the presence of strong acid. Heating a moist mixture with a dibasic organic acid liberates chlorine dioxide and carbon dioxide. Mixtures with ammonium salts, powdered metals, silicon, sulfur, or sulfides are readily ignited and potentially explosive [Bretherick 1979 p. 806]. A combination with finely divided aluminum can explode by heat, percussion, or friction [Mellor 2:310 1946-47].

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
