Spill in a Water Body
Rapid and Controlled Response
At Sanivac, we offer specialized services for responding to spills in water bodies, whether they are rivers, lakes, or streams. The uncontrolled discharge of substances such as wastewater, chemicals, or contaminated materials poses a serious risk to public health and the environment. These situations can be caused by the saturation of sewer systems during heavy rains (overflows), infrastructure failures, or industrial incidents.
Thanks to our expertise, specialized equipment, and 24/7 response capability, we ensure a rapid, structured, and compliant intervention, including reporting to authorities and implementing corrective measures.
Emergency Response in Aquatic Environments
Rapidly Limit the Spread of Contamination
When a spill occurs in a water body, immediate intervention is essential to limit the dispersion of contaminants. Our teams are rapidly deployed on-site to assess the situation, secure the area, and initiate containment and recovery operations.
We intervene for both wastewater overflows and industrial incidents involving chemicals or contaminated materials, with a rigorous approach focused on protecting the natural environment.

Boom Installation with Specialized Vessel
Precise Containment Using Our Zodiac Boat
Sanivac uses a Zodiac boat specially equipped to intervene directly on water bodies. This vessel allows us to efficiently install the floating booms necessary to contain spilled substances and prevent their downstream propagation.
The installation of booms is a key step to enable subsequent work, including pumping, contaminant recovery, and targeted cleaning of the water body, while minimizing impacts on surrounding ecosystems.
Contaminant Pumping, Recovery, and Cleaning
A Safe and Environment-Adapted Approach
Once containment is in place, our teams proceed with the pumping and recovery of contaminated materials, whether they are wastewater, chemicals, or industrial residues. The methods used are adapted to the type of substance and the characteristics of the water body, ensuring effective intervention without aggravating the situation.
The recovered materials are then transported to authorized treatment centers, in accordance with current environmental standards.
Regulatory Compliance and Comprehensive Support
A Single Point of Contact to Manage the Situation
Spills in aquatic environments require immediate reporting to competent authorities and rigorous management of corrective actions. Sanivac supports its clients throughout the process, ensuring a compliant, documented, and structured intervention.
We act as a single point of contact, simplifying operational coordination, reducing delays, and limiting the environmental and financial impacts related to the incident.
