Some of the most effective methods for disposing of hazardous materials quickly and without causing any environmental damage include absorption with inert material, treatment with specific chemicals or enzymes, physical removal, steam cleanup, vacuuming and sedimentation. It is important to assess the spill to determine which method is best suited for that particular scenario. Furthermore, following up any clean-up process with a monitoring program can provide an additional layer of security.

There are a few ways to quickly dispose of hazardous materials without causing environmental damage. One method is to contain the material by booming or skimming it with an oil-collecting agent, such as hay or grass matting. Then, evacuating the contaminated material to a secured and safe location before using more extreme methods such as in situ recovery or hot-water/soap agitation. Finally, burning the hazardous materials in an open-air incinerator can also be a safe solution with proper precautions taken.
