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.

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.
