Collect escaping product by means of a suitable material (e.g. earth, sand, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite, universal binding agents).
Avoid (direct) release (of undiluted product) to the environment/sewage system.
Do not empty into drains.
In case of contamination of soil or water bodies notify the competent authorities.
Beware of the explosion danger.
Vapours are heavier than air and will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks).
Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof equipment.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge.
Ensure electrical continuity by bonding and grounding (earthing) all equipment.
5.4. Instructions for safe disposal of the product and its packaging
