The presence of Mercury, its compounds, and other contaminants can pose a significant threat to facilities, personnel and the environment through a variety of incompatibilities, interactions, process conditions or even human error.

A resulting accidental release, illegal emission or integrity issue can result in fatalities, over exposed personnel, environmental pollution and/or catastrophic failure; as has been documented throughout history.

When faced with a contaminated process it is imperative that the necessary preventative steps are taken, but what happens when there is an incident?

• What caused it?
• A contaminant was present but is it to blame?
• Could the incident have been avoided?
• Was the response the correct one?
• Can the response be improved upon?
• Is there still a threat?
• Allowable activities during investigation
• Remediation of contaminated areas and systems
• Non-destructive inspection of process internals
• Sample capture, destructive sampling and on-site analysis Sample capture, destructive sampling and packaging for off-site and/or 3rd party analysis
