• Flammability: Highly flammable gases can cause fires or explosions.

• Toxicity: Toxic gases can lead to serious health issues or fatalities if inhaled.

• Asphyxiation: Inert gases can displace oxygen, leading to suffocation in confined spaces.

• Pressure Hazards: Compressed gases stored under high pressure can cause injuries or equipment damage if cylinders leak or rupture.

• Cryogenic Burns: Gases stored at very low temperatures can cause severe cold burns upon contact with skin.

• Chemical Burns: Corrosive gases can cause chemical burns on skin and mucous membranes.

• Reactivity: Some gases can cause dangerous chemical reactions if they come into contact with incompatible substances.

• Environmental Impact: Accidental releases of certain gases can contribute to global warming or ozone depletion.

• Explosion Risks: Certain gases can form explosive mixtures with air.

• Transportation Hazards: Transporting industrial gases involves risks such as leaks, accidents, and spills.

• Oxygen Enrichment: Elevated oxygen levels can increase the risk of fire and explosion.

• Confined Space Entry: Handling gases in confined spaces can be hazardous due to asphyxiation, toxic exposure, and limited escape routes.

• Radiation Hazards: Some industrial gases can be radioactive and pose serious health risks.
