Dry Cleaning - Spill and Leak Prevention Process

Following are a set of P2 options you may wish to implement. No option is perfect for everyone, but sometimes options that have worked at one facility can work at yours. They might also serve as inspiration.

Reviewed Dry Cleaning - Spill and Leak Prevention Options

Following are a list of options that have been reviewed by pollution prevention specialists. These options have worked at other facilities and may work at yours.
 

Check Hoses

Check hoses, couplings, pumps, valves and gaskets frequently in order to detect leaks. Make repairs promptly.
 

Material Handling

Take special care when handling your cleaning materials to prevent spills. You'll avoid costly clean up.
 

Know your solvent needs

Know how much solvent your machine normally uses. If solvent use suddenly increases, find out why. Not knowing the answer may be costly (machine repairs, hazardous waste clean up).
 

Cover your containers

Keep all containers covered to prevent evaporation and spillage.
 

Secondary Containment

Provide secondary containment in areas where solvents are stored. Small leaks will not become more costly spills.
