Engineering Controls Adequate ventilation. Spare tank for emergency        transfer Dike wall, emergency scrubber etc. Leak, spill handling If the leak in piping, shut off the Chlorine supply. If the leak is from cylinders, position the cylinder so that leak will be in gaseous phase. Contain Liquid spills. Do not pour water on leak containers.
