If a small quantity is involved, after absorbing and removing the spilled substance with an absorbing agent (sawdust, soil, sand, waste cloth, etc.) thoroughly wipe the area with a cloth.
In case of a large outflow, secure the area with a rope to prevent people other than those who are involved in the cleanup to enter the area. Make sure you wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin and eye exposure to airborne droplets.
If a large quantity is involved, prevent further outflow by enclosing the spill using earth fill and treat it once it has been directed to a safe area.
When diluting with a large quantity of water, make sure the contaminated drainage water is treated appropriately before being released into the environment.
