ENVIRONMENT AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

Abstract

Chemical hazards are characterized by the physical and chemical properties of the substance and the danger inherent in negligent, reckless or reckless conduct by workers. Accidents arising from the inappropriate use of these substances often cause irreversible damage to health, property and the environment, which may occur in the short or long term. On risk management issues, very little information is available to users. In Brazil, for example, there are only chemical safety data sheets (FISPQs) and safety data sheets for this purpose, both printed in extensive and tiresome text. As for the environment, since the beginning of the discovery of Brazil, there are legal means of environmental protection, where the subject requires little significance, because initially environmental law was not considered an independent branch of Brazilian law due to the wide range of legal contents related to the subject. (i.e., environment), environmental law has consolidated itself as a branch of law with autonomy, bringing comprehensive content and knowledge to everyone who envisioned it. In view of what is presented, we will start from where it all began, making it clear how Environmental Law is collective under Brazilian law.
