This small sized maintenance spill kit, also known as a general purpose spill kit, contains a range of general purpose absorbents that are suitable for use inside and out.  It is ideal for spills, leaks, drips of non-corrosive liquids, hydrocarbons, solvents, other aqueous, and organic liquids.

The blue barrel is made from polyethylene and has an open top with a snap ring lid.  There are handles either side for easy positioning.   The barrels are suitable for outdoor and indoor use where there is risk of liquid spills.

May be safely used with all aqueous solutions and liquids immiscible with water, such as hydrocarbons, solvents, mineral oils, with the exception of strong oxidising agents.  Before any use in a spill situation a proper risk assessment should be carried out and all hazardous properties of the liquid or dangerous reactions taken into account.

Maximum absorbency capacity 68 Litres

Disposal

  • Used sorbents may be disposed of by landfill or incineration, in accordance with local and national regulations, taking into account the classification of the liquid absorbed

 

Recommended usage

    • Primarily used for dealing with spills that pose an environmental threat in areas like:
    • Loading bays or in lubricant dispensing areas
    • Plant and machinery areas
    • Position in areas of high risk and near containment vessels for immediate response to spills.
    • Place near drains to reduce the risk of pollutants entering the drainage system.

Classification of waste

    • We would always recommend that you check the latest details on the Government’s website to ensure you control and handle waste correctly

Tested in accordance with:-

    • ISO 10319:2024 (Geosynthetics, wide-width tensile test)
    • BS 7959-1:2004 (Materials used for the control of liquid spillages determination of sorbency)

Question:  What is the ISO 10319:2024 standard?iso 10319:2024

Answer:  In brief it is a tensile test.  The standard specifies a tensile test method that covers the measurement of tensile force, elongation characteristics and includes procedures for the calculation of secant stiffness, maximum load per unit width and strain at maximum force. Singular points on the tensile force-extension curve are also indicated.  Procedures for measuring the tensile properties of both conditioned and wet specimens are included in this document.

Question:  What is the BS 7959-1:2004 standard?

bsi 7959-1:2004Answer:  In brief it is used to assess sorbency.  The standard looks at the sorbent materials.  These are generally available in two basic types.  There are hydrophobic grades (so-called oil sorbents) that pick up oils and other organic liquids but repel water and most aqueous solutions.  Hydrophilic grades, on the other hand, pick up both oils and organic liquid and most aqueous solutions of chemicals.  The absorbency (litres of liquid absorbed per kg) is greatly influenced by the liquid viscosity and drainage time.  We quote minimum absorbencies based on laboratory tests carried out using SAE10W40 motor oil in line with the British Standard Test Method BS7959-1:2004 (30 second drainage time, at 20C) and maximum absorbencies with no drainage.
