Spill Cleanup Procedures - Identifying the Need for Extra Equipment
When devising your emergency spill response plan and looking at what equipment is required, your attention will undoubtedly be focussed on absorbent materials and spill kits, however apparatus to support the containment and clearing away of hazardous materials will also need to be considered. All items recognised as being necessary for safe operation should be in place before work commences. It is also important employees are trained in its use and drills must be carried out to ensure everyone knows what to do if an incident occurs.
Spill Containment Equipment for the Workplace
Preventing hazardous substances from entering the watercourse through drains is incredibly important and can have financial and environmental consequences. Using a drain cover whenever chemicals, oils or other potentially harmful liquids are being worked with is a simple, yet effective way of ensuring this doesn’t happen. They are perfect for using whilst tankers are being filled or emptied and should be situated ready for deployment in all outside spaces. PVC drain covers are reusable, while clay variants can be moulded to fit unusual shapes.
A selection of storage items is available for holding absorbent materials. These can aid response times as they clearly indicate where spill control supplies are held in an emergency. Sorbent centres are fully equipped and include absorbent materials and items such as gloves, goggles amd waste bags. Bright yellow in colour, they are easily visible and can be fitted with wheels to become the ultimate mobile spill kit.
Spill stations are another way of ensuring everyone knows where spill control items are stored and include helpful information on how to clear up leaks and spills. They are suitable for high or low hazard levels and can be supplied complete or empty, with refill materials available separately.
Spill control matting is a worthwhile investment if spills are likely in high traffic areas, such as alongside walkways or around regularly used machinery. Available in a standard or anti-fatigue format they will soak up dangerous liquids, keeping nearby areas safe from contamination and reducing slip hazards.
Businesses that need spill kits and procedures
Any workplace governed by COSHH regulations will need several types of spill response equipment, from basic drain covers to High Hazard Spill Safety Stations. Some of the best value absorbent materials for industrial spills are featured in our Spill Kit Granules range. The chemical spill kits UK firms use must include all the mandatory products that are designed to stop the spread of substances. They ensure spills can be dealt with and cleaned away safely and quickly.
However, any other company or public building that uses harsh chemicals is advised to keep some form of spill kit in handy too. For example, large office complexes or factories could use strong cleaning fluids, and having spill response equipment near to their storage areas becomes vital. It is recommended that agricultural and horticultural enterprises have a spill kit station as well, near any fuel or other substance that could leak or be splashed on the ground. Additionally, any business connected to waste management could find themselves inadvertently handling risky substances, and having equipment to deal with chemical or fuel leaks is necessary. Other workplaces that demand an emergency spill response procedure and kit include fuel garages and automotive repair business, any businesses within the oil industry, along with medical facilities, pharmaceutical businesses, and laboratories.
What is spill response?
There are multiple ways COSHH-regulated substances can be exposed, leading to a significant risk to anyone in the vicinity or to the environment. This includes leaks, containers being knocked over, and inefficient decanting or handling.
A spill response is a policy and process that deals with this disastrous issue in the correct manner. It carefully contains any potential harm, such as stopping the spread and eliminating risk swiftly. Training in spill response is vital, alongside having a relevant kit and instructions kept accessible and clearly signposted. This enables a decisive response in an emergency.
Regular spill response drill practices can ensure your team has all the skills and knowledge needed to limit the human, environmental, and structural damage that can occur when hazardous substances escape. Make sure your team also considers spill kit disposal protocols too, as this is certainly not something that should end up in general waste disposal systems.
What are spill kits used for?
Spill kits ensure you have everything you need in one place. They help you deal with the type of risks your organisation or building could face due to an oversight, accident, or malicious action involving harmful substances. The best kits to tackle spills in generalised locations include absorbent products and instructions to deal with both liquid and hydrocarbon issues. Hydrocarbons, in particular, can end up leaching into water, requiring a specialist form of absorbent equipment. When it is biohazards that you need to guard against – such as in laboratories and medical facilities – there are blood-borne spill kits and other healthcare spill response products that must be kept in an easy to access cabinet.
In some situations, spill hazard stations must be stocked and ready to deal with especially dangerous situations, such as leaks involving corrosive acids and solvents. In this case, it is vital the spill response equipment includes specially formulated absorbents that provide a heavy-duty solution. Other types of spill safety kits are more general and universal in their make-up, making them ideal for responding to low-level risks, and less harmful leakages and splashes.
Would you usually find RPE in a spill kit?
It is important to source spill control equipment that is relevant to the level of risk your organisation faces, and the types of substances you need to contain and clean away promptly. When dealing with especially hazardous materials, you may well be mandated to source a spill safety station which includes Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE). This ensures that staff do not breathe in harmful substances, while tackling emergency containment and clean-up. Training is required in the proper use of RPE, as well as for controlling and dealing with gases, vapours, and dust that have escaped in confined spaces. Vitally, this training doesn’t negate the need for chemical spill kit instructions kept with the compliant equipment needed to tackle COSHH substances that become airborne.
