Liquid Adhesive Spill Cleanup Project
HazChem Environmental specializes in both hazardous and non-hazardous spill cleanup response. HazChem recently responded to a spill involving a corrosive liquid during shipping. The incident happened when a forklift punctured the side of a 55-gallon open-top drum, creating a small hole, causing a leak. This required immediate liquid adhesive spill cleanup.
Our Emergency Response Crew is ready to dispatch, and ALWAYS OPEN.
We are always prepared to handle hazardous waste spills effectively. For SUPER-FAST emergency response anywhere, anytime, please contact HazChem Environmental at 630-458-1910. Our hotline operates 24/7/365. Learn more about HazChem Emergency Response Services.
Approximately 30 gallons of adhesive spilled, contaminating both the trailer floor and the concrete outside.
The affected trailer was cleaned by deploying oil-dry into the waste liquid. It was then worked-in, for optimal absorption.
The impacted oil-dry was scooped up and put into 55-gallon OTS drums, to be disposed of as waste by HazChem technicians.
We started offloading the freight from off the trailer, wiping off the bottoms of the pallets with universal pads before placing them onto the dock floor. The freight was put into the staging area. The damaged drum was found and put into one 85-gallon OTS drum, as an overpack.
Once the trailer was finished, they moved to the affected ground and deployed oil-dry into the product waste liquid as well.
The HazChem crew then put the impacted oil-dry into the designated drum, for waste.
This spill generated two waste drums and an overpack; sealed, properly labeled, and kept on-site.
Final photos were taken and remediation was approved.
