The primary objective is to provide first responders at a spillage incident with basic know-how and techniques to safely use absorbent products to recover the spilt substance and limit any escape into the environment.

• Explanation & definition of types of sorbent materials deployed on site ( e.g. Organic, non-organic, synthetic )
• Explanation & definition of types of Sorbent products deployed on site ( e.g. Loose materials, pads, cushions, socks, booms )
• Explanation of the features, properties  uses of the different types of Sorbents & Sorbent products deployed on site

• Best Techniques
• Internal use
• External use
• On Water
• Powder Spills
• Typical Spill scenarios for this site (as agreed with site management)
• Containment techniques (not secondary containment systems)
• Sorbent Use
• Importance of minimising the response time
• Incident reporting

This practical element should be an interactive exercise, ‘hands-on’ for delegates and must adequately demonstrate the safe use of typical sorbent products deployed on site. Specifically, the demonstration should show effective prevention of liquid entry into drain inlets, controls of other liquid escape routes and contamination of liquid spread.

• Stress initial actions
• Stress personal safety
• Show and tell key techniques to minimise response time and remain safe
• Demonstrate recovery of used saturated sorbents
• Emphasis residual dangers of absorbed liquids (saturated sorbents) during clean-up
• Stress proper disposal procedure and labelling of residues
