Steps to be taken in Case Potassium Bicarbonate is Released or Spilled:
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or wet sweeping may be used to avoid dust dispersal. Small amounts of residue may be flushed to sewer with plenty of water.

Keep Potassium bicarbonate in a well closed container stored under cold to warm conditions, 2 to 40 C, (36 to 104F). Protect against physical damage. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
