Todd, it concerns the Situation in Europe, with the biocide Regulation for Nitrogen in Tanks (bootles). As we heard last week in Stockholm from the US-colleagues, in the US it isn‘t a real problem in the practical use at the museums.

At the museum I work at, we have tanks of nitrogen that we use to flush Marvelseal envelopes during anoxic treatments. Does this mean it is now not legal to have nitrogen tanks? -Todd On Wed, May 29, 2019 at 11:46 AM Dr Geraldine Finlayson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Christian, It was good meeting you last week and a very good meeting too. Lots of useful info and food for thought. Regarding your question: the Gibraltar National Museum doesn’t have a Nitrogen generator, nor have we ever used bottled Nitrogen.

Further information about the issue is available at the ICOM UK website: http://uk.icom.museum/news/view/?title=/pest-treatment-using-nitrogen-gas-in-the-cultural-heritage-sector/. ICOM are currently in the role of a mediator between the European Commission, national governments and the cultural heritage sector in an attempt to resolve this situation. This question goes to the UK members of this list: in the context of gaining as much insight into the use of in-situ generated Nitrogen by the cultural heritage sector I am compiling some information for ICOM. Please can you let me know if your museum has a Nitrogen generator and treatment chamber. On a related note, I would also be interested to know if you have recently used bottled Nitrogen, especially in conjunction with services offered by Rentokil. Please do reply off-list if you wish.
