How to properly clean up spills

Containment


The first step in cleaning up a water-based spill is to contain it. Depending on the severity of the spill, you may want to spread out a containment berm to keep the liquid confined to a particular area. If an above-ground tank is leaking a water-based chemical, for instance, you could lay out a berm underneath the source of the leak. Assuming the berm is large enough, it should catch the water-based liquid so it doesn’t spread on the floor.


Note: we talk about the differences between containment booms and berms in one of our previous blog posts. It’s not uncommon for people to confuse these two spill cleanup tools with one another. While booms and berms share some similarities, there are notable differences between the two that shouldn’t go unnoticed.


Clean Up


Once the spill has been properly contained, you should then work on cleaning it up. The good news is that water-based spills are typically easier to clean, but the bad news is that you’ll still have to put some elbow grease into it.


There are several different products designed for spill cleanups, so use them to your advantage. You can use absorbent socks, pillows, pads, mats and rolls to help soak up the water-based liquid. Place these absorbent items into the heart of the spill so they will soak up the water-based liquid. When they are full, carefully remove them from the spill area and dispose of them in a plastic garbage bag. Continue soaking up the spill until there’s no remaining liquid left behind.


When choosing products to clean up a water-based spill, it’s best to stick with ones labeled “universal.” Universal spill cleanup products are all-purpose and can be used for a wide variety of instances, including both aggressive and non-aggressive spills.

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

d. our division of time into hours, minutes, and seconds.

Explanation:

The Sumerians were responsible for dividing time the way we do today. First, they determined that the day would begin at sunrise and end only if sunset, where the night would begin that would only end when the sun rose again. After that, observing the skies and their changes throughout the day and night, they developed a complex, but very efficient, division and timing system. They realized that the day could be divided into 24 hours and that each hour could be divided into 60 minutes, so each minute should have 60 seconds.

What do you think the missionaries could have done in order to prevent the failure of the East Texas missions
patriot [66]

Answer:

The missionaries could have tried a more friendly approach with the natives, besides having tried to make alliances with the French.

Explanation:

The missions promoted by the Spanish in the east in Texas had as main objective to expel the French from the region, to convert natives and to make the place safe for the establishment of borders.

Although a few borders were established, the missions were not successful. The natives had friendly relations with the French, which meant that the Spanish missions were not strong enough to expel them. Furthermore, the missionaries' approach to the Indians was not accepted with friendliness, but it did establish a strong conflict between natives and Spaniards.
