Astronomer Ronald Koopman appeared at a meeting of the Southern California Air District in 2018 to discuss what seemed to be an arcane science topic: dispersion of hydrofluoric acid and water reduction experiments.
Hydrofluoric acid, also known as hydrogen fluoride or HF, is used making various substances, including refrigerants, gasoline, fluorine-based pesticides and fluoropolymers such as those used to make Teflon. It is also one of the most destructive and dangerous drugs known. Koopman tested the chemical in the 1980s, which warned of the potential for fatal accidents at sites using the hazardous materials.
It’s the Trump administration he is ready to return orders the purpose of protecting workers and the public from the release of hazardous industrial chemicals, and a new analysis reflecting the rise of drug hazards, Koopman’s description of the most dangerous substances has arrived quickly.
