Solvent Spill Clean Up Kit (Product Code: SLE/CH/220) brings together what a lab needs to absorb, collect and bag a small solvent spill in one pack. The core of the kit is 1100g of diatomaceous earth, a fine mineral absorbent, packed in a polybag, backed up by vinyl exam gloves, a dust pan and brush, empty polybags, twist ties, blank shipping tags and an instruction sheet/MSDS. It is intended for chemistry teaching labs, preparation rooms, research labs and stores where organic solvents are handled, and it is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as part of its range of lab consumables.

When a bottle of ethanol, acetone or another laboratory solvent is knocked over, the priority is to warn others, put out nearby flames, switch off heat sources and ventilate the room. The responder then puts on the vinyl gloves and pours diatomaceous earth around the edge of the spill first and then over the centre, so the liquid is contained while it soaks in. Once it has been absorbed, the dust pan and brush sweep the material into one of the empty polybags, which is closed with a twist tie and labelled on a blank shipping tag with the solvent name and date.
Keep the kit stored close to where solvents are dispensed, read the instruction sheet/MSDS during staff induction rather than for the first time during an incident, and hand the sealed bags over for lab waste disposal in line with your institution's rules. After use, check what has been consumed and restock before the next practical session.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which operates as ScienceLab from Ambala in Haryana, supplies this kit so laboratories can source safety consumables along with the teaching apparatus the company builds. Details of the company are on the ScienceLab profile.
