Spill Kits Contents and Uses

Spill Kit Equipment HDPE bucket (needed for strong corrosives) Polypropylene bags & zip ties Hazardous Waste Labels Additional PPE: goggles forearm-covering gloves shoe covers Mini polypropylene dustpan and broom

Absorbents/Adsorbents General - Universal polypropylene sorbent pads NOTE: May degrade with strong corrosives NaHCO3 Acid - Sodium Bicarbonate NOTE: Do not neutralize heavy metal-containing or oxidizing acids Base - Citric Acid NOTE: Best b/c endothermic w/ visible endpoint Solvents and Thiols - Activated carbon Reactives - Vermiculite or Sand Mercury - Zinc powder or mercury sponge

Specialized Spill Kits Biohazard- Agent-specific disinfectant Biohazard waste bags Radioactive - Radioactive waste bags Barrier tape Specialized detergent such as RadCon Wipe testing kit Scouring powder and scrub brush HF Hydrofluoric Acid - Calcium Carbonate or specialized product such as Spilfyter’s Kolorsafe Kolor-Lock NOTE: Conc. must be <40% to prevent fuming
