A system for discharging a chemical from a drum that is coupled to a drum retainer is provided. The system includes a booth having a floor, a ceiling, and walls defining an enclosure therein and configured to enclose the drum and the drum retainer. A first gas source is coupled to the booth and in flow communication to the enclosure and configured to discharge a first inert gas into the enclosure. A second gas source is coupled in flow communication to the drum and configured to discharge a second inert gas into the drum and to pressurize the chemical. The system further includes a pump coupled in flow communication to the drum and configured to discharge the chemical from the drum under at least one predetermined characteristic and out of the enclosure.

1. A system for discharging a chemical from a drum that is coupled to a drum retainer, the system comprising: a booth having a floor, a ceiling, and walls defining an enclosure therein and configured to enclose the drum and the drum retainer;a first gas source coupled to the booth and in flow communication to the enclosure and configured to discharge a first inert gas into the enclosure;a second gas source coupled in flow communication to the drum and configured to discharge a second inert gas into the drum and to pressurize the chemical;a pump coupled in flow communication to the drum and configured to discharge the chemical from the drum under at least one predetermined characteristic and out of the enclosure; anda controller coupled to at least one of the first gas source, the second gas source, and the pump wherein the controller is configured to selectively operate the at least one of the first gas source, the second gas source, and the pump. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the first gas source is configured to discharge the first inert gas into the enclosure and at a pressure range from about 1 pound per square inch (psi) to about 5 psi. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the second gas source is configured to discharge the second inert gas into the drum and at a pressure range from about 1 psi to about 10 psi. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one predetermined characteristic of the chemical comprises at least one of a temperature, a specific gravity, a flow rate, and a pressure of the chemical. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one predetermined characteristic comprises a temperature of the chemical having a range from about 40° F. to about 100° F. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one predetermined characteristic comprises a specific gravity of the chemical having a range from about 1.6 to about 1.7. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one predetermined characteristic comprises a flow rate of the chemical having a range from about 0.5 lb./hr. to about 2000 lb./hr. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one predetermined characteristic comprises a pressure of the chemical having a range from about 5 pounds per square inch to about 80 pounds per square inch. 9. The system of claim 1 further comprising a removable gas source coupled in flow communication to the booth. 10. The system of claim 1 further comprising a conveyor system coupled to the booth. 11. The system of claim 1 further comprising a heat transfer device coupled to the booth. 12. The system of claim 1 further comprising a calibration system coupled to the booth and in flow communication to the pump. 13. A computer-implemented method for discharging a chemical stored in a drum which is coupled to a drum retainer which is positioned in an enclosure, the method implemented using a controller in communication with a memory, the method comprising: discharging from a first gas source a first inert gas into the enclosure to purge the enclosure;discharging from a second gas source a second inert gas into the drum to pressurize the chemical;pumping by a pump the pressurized chemical under at least one predetermined characteristic and out of the enclosure; and wherein the controller is coupled to at least one of the first gas source, the second gas source, and the pump wherein the controller is configured to selectively operate the at least one of the first gas source, the second gas source, and the pump. 14. The computer-implemented method of claim 13, wherein discharging the second inert gas comprises discharging the second inert gas comprising the same composition as the first inert gas. 15. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 further comprising discharging the chemical into at least one storage tank at a flow rate having a range from about 0.5 lb./hr. to about 2000 lb./hr. 16. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 further comprising calibrating the chemical by measuring the at least one predetermined characteristic. 17. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 further comprising selectively controlling the at least one predetermined characteristic comprising at least one of a temperature from about 40° F. to about 100° F., a specific gravity from about 1.6 to about 1.7, a flow rate of the chemical from about 0.5 lb./hr. to about 2000 lb./hr., and a pressure from about 5 psi to about 80 psi of the chemical. 18. A method of manufacturing a discharge system for discharging a chemical from the drum that is coupled to a drum retainer that is positioned within a booth, the method comprising: coupling a pump to the booth;coupling a first gas inlet to the booth;coupling a second gas inlet to the booth and in flow communication to the pump; andcoupling a controller to the first gas inlet, the second gas inlet, and the pump and configured for selectively pumping the chemical out of the drum at least one of a temperature from about 40° F. to about 100° F., a specific gravity from about 1.6 to about 1.7, a flow rate of the chemical from about 0.5 lb./hr. to about 2000 lb./hr., and a pressure from about 5 psi to about 80 psi wherein the controller is configured to selectively operate the first gas inlet, the second gas inlet, and the pump. 19. The method of claim 18 further comprising coupling a calibration system to the booth and in flow communication to the pump.
