Inside a Chemical Spill Cleanup Job in Chapin, SC

1. Identify the substance

The team checks labels, safety data sheets and the history of the site. If the substance is unknown, crews treat it as hazardous until it is identified.

2. Sort by hazard

Products are separated by type, such as flammables, corrosives and poisons. Leaking containers are placed in secondary containment right away.

3. Collect and clean

Hazardous material, empty containers and soaked items go into sealed drums or bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned, and porous materials that soaked up the substance are removed.

4. Dispose and document

Waste is packed and hauled to an approved facility. The owner receives a summary of what was removed, so there is a record for insurers or buyers.
