Fast Response for Spills Requiring a Cleanup Crew for Remediation
HazChem Environmental recently responded to a spill involving 100 gallons of liquid Rhomidet AT88, a feed additive, that spilled during transport. Although it is classified as non- hazardous, it still poses potential hazards, so it is best to contact a professional cleanup crew with trained technicians and PPE such as HazChem Environmental for the following reasons:
- ACIDIC NATURE: It is acidic, so contact with skin or eyes should be avoided.
- SLIP HAZARD: can create a slippery surface which requires immediate cleanup.

See See our Cleanup Crew in Action and our Remediation Process:
Our trained technicians started with laying a tarp over a 26’x40’ of the impacted area.
Our trained technicians staged 55-gallon OTS drums, opened, and bags of oil dry near the area. HazChem cleanup crew scooped up the first layer of oil dry already laid down by another crew and put it in a designated drum.
A berm was created with oil dry, around the affected area. They placed the affected tarp inside of a drum, as well, and deployed another layer of oil dry into the open area.
Once the impacted oil dry was removed, the crew used absorbent pads to extract small standing areas of liquid. The cleanup crew deployed a new layer of oil dry and worked it in with hard brooms and shovels, for absorption and solidification. The impacted oil dry was scooped up and placed into the designated drums, to be disposed of as waste.
The HazChem cleanup crew completed the remediation, so they doffed their PPE and put them into a 55-gallon OTS drum, for waste. This spill generated twelve waste drums; they were sealed and properly labeled. Photos were taken and remediation was complete.
