Benzene Safety is a common component in the Oil & Gas industry. Benzene is a naturally occurring chemical. It was first discovered by an English scientist in 1825 in illuminating gas. In 1845 another scientist/chemist was able to isolate benzene from coal tar. At first benzene was obtained entirely from tar, but that method has since been replaced by petroleum-based processes. Benzene has many uses. More than 50% of benzene is converted into ethylbenzene then to styrene, then to polystyrene. Other uses of benzene are in the preparation of phenol and in the manufacture of plastics, dyes, detergents, pesticides, and other chemicals. Benzene is also found in gasoline, and crude oil and might be required for the RAVS® on your ISNetworld® account. Read More »Benzene Safety
