Pam 13 hosting workshops to bring back chemistry abs BYU Because of safety concerns and the expense of hazardous chemicals disposal, high schools in Utah have essentially closed down their chemistry labs, but Brigham Young University is sponsoring a Microchemistry Workshop that may open them up again. Earl M. Woolley, chair of the Chemistry Department, said 56 high school teachers from all over Utah are participating in sessions Saturday (Feb. 10) and March 24 to learn about new materials and techniques involving microchemistry. About three months ago, one of the schools in the Salt Lake Valley had some kind of an accident,5 said Woolley. OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration) came in and said 'You've got to dean up all these all-d- that one high school lab was $20,000.

Using microlab equipment, a plastic tray contains 96 test tubes, each of which is only one-hainch inch in high and ameter. Liquids are handled with a tiny plastic flexible syringe with a tube on one end; the syringe works like an eyedropper, but the h the drops it creates are lf di-- one-quart- er one-tent- size of an ordinary drop. Because many experiments require only a color change, formation ofa precipitate or bubbling to indicate a chemical reaction, they can be conducted with as little u two drops of material and till be visible, Noolley said. hu been producing sevdrums ofhazardous wastes in its various libs each BYU eral year.
