Fresh air, rest.
Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention .
Exposure can cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat. (USCG, 1999)
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Organic bases/Amines and related compounds/
Fire Extinguishing Agents Not to Be Used: Water. Fire Extinguishing Agents: Dry chemical, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide. (USCG, 1999)
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire. (USCG, 1999)
Use foam, alcohol-resistant foam, dry powder, water spray.
Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in covered containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
NO open flames. 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 an area without drain or sewer access. Separated from strong acids.

Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes. The solution in water is a medium strong base. Reacts violently with acids and oxidants.

The vapour is heavier than air.METHYLDIETHANOLAMINE is an aminoalcohol. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. This compound may react with oxidizing materials. (NTP, 1992)

Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying.
AEROBIC: N-Methyldiethanolamine (present at 40% solution obtained from a gas sweetening plant) was found to be non-biodegradable after 28 days during a standard batch test using activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant as inoculum. In a 40-day continuous flow experiment using activated sludge, the same solution containing N-methyldiethanolamine degraded >96% based on TOC which was probably due to the adaptation of the microrganisms to the test substance(1). N-Methyldiethanolamine, added at daily increments of 15 mg/L, reached 40.0% of its BOD during a five day biochemical oxygen demand test using acclimated sewage culture(2).
An estimated BCF of 3.2 was calculated for N-methyldiethanolamine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -1.50(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of N-methyldiethanolamine can be estimated to be 1 for the neutral species(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that N-methyldiethanolamine is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of N-methyldiethanolamine is 8.52(3), indicating that this compound will partially exist in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4).

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.
