Applications and Selection of HEWER MultiKEEP Spill Pallets

Spill pallets are indispensable equipment in modern industrial safety and environmental protection. They are mainly used for storing and transporting oil drums and chemical containers to prevent environmental pollution or safety risks caused by liquid leakage and spillage.

 

The following are the main application scenarios and functions of spill pallets:

1. Chemical Storage and Protection

This is the core application of spill pallets. In chemical plants, laboratories, or cleaning agent storage areas, liquid containers (such as 200-liter standard oil drums or IBC containers) are prone to leakage due to aging, damage, or improper handling.

 

Preventing Environmental Pollution: The spill containment trough under the pallet can capture leaked strong acids, strong alkalis, or toxic chemicals, preventing liquids from flowing onto the ground, into sewers, or seeping into the soil.

 

Acid and Alkali Resistance: Most pallets are made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which has extremely strong corrosion resistance.

 

2. Factory Production Workshops

In daily production, spill pallets are often used as temporary turnover points for raw materials.

 

Maintaining Environmental Cleanliness: Prevents oil drips from causing slippery floors, reducing the risk of employees slipping and falling. 5S Management: Helps factories achieve standardized material management, improving workplace safety and professionalism.

 

3. Hazardous Waste Disposal: When collecting waste oil, waste chemical liquids, or industrial waste liquids, placing waste containers on spill pallets ensures that leaks during pouring or filling are effectively collected, preventing secondary pollution.

 

4. Warehousing and Logistics: In large warehouses, spill pallets, used in conjunction with forklifts, provide additional safety when moving liquid goods.

 

Secondary Containers: Comply with environmental regulations in many countries, requiring sufficient secondary collection tanks to handle damage to the primary container.

 

5. Emergency Leak Response: In the event of a large-scale leak of containerized liquids, spill pallets can serve as a temporary handling facility, quickly transferring damaged containers to the pallets to contain the spread of the leak.

 

Spill Pallet Selection

 

Common designs, depending on application requirements, include:

 

Single, double, or quadruple container designs: Depends on storage capacity.

 

IBC-specific pallets: Designed for large 1000-liter containers, offering higher load-bearing capacity.

 

Spill Decks: Lower height, facilitating easy access for personnel to move containers; multiple platforms can be combined to form a long work area.

 

Usage Recommendations

 

Capacity Matching: According to regulations (such as SPCC standards), the spill containment tank capacity should typically be greater than 110% of the volume of a single container, or 10% of the total volume of all containers.

 

Timely Cleaning: If liquid accumulation is found in the pallet, it should be cleaned promptly using absorbent pads or a pump to maintain proper spill-proof space.

 

Material Compatibility: Before use, ensure that the stored chemicals will not react chemically with the pallet material.
