Abstract: At approximately 4:05 a.m. on July 2, 2012, Employee #1, a technician, was involved with an operation at a facility that manufactures dairy beverages. After believing the operation had completed, he went to changeover the elbow on the filler line of the processing equipment. He loosened a clamp on the filter line and was sprayed by hot water with nitrate and phosphoric acid. Employee #1 sustained second-degree burns to his torso, buttock, left upper and lower extremities. A coworker transported him to a community hospital , where he was then transferred to the burn center of another hospital. At this hospital, he underwent medical treatment and was then hospitalized for eight days.
