Hydro carbon spillage near 'Muela river - Butha-Buthe.
An abnormal truck accident with +- 2000l of fuel spilled on the carriage way along the main north 1 road near 'Muela river Butha-Buthe.
We arrived on site within 30min of the accident report. Appropriate P.P.E gear was worn for safe handling of the material. Traffic cones were placed accordingly for the awareness of other road users to avoid accidents.
The spill was analysed and speedily contained, Biozorb was spread and the absorbent booms were strategically placed to avoid the spill flow into the nearby river and contamination of soil.
Extensive clean-up and scrubbing was done to the surface of the carriage way using Oil Sep Bio (OT8) Biological cleaner to avoid the road being slippery.
The waste material was contained in heavy duty disposal bags and shall be treated and disposed accordingly.
The products we use are bio remediation products, they keep the soil free of chemicals after clean-up.
We leave the place as clean as possible.
