Specialized Professional Services, Inc

In transportation and in fixed facilities, accidents sometimes occur and cause damage to chemical containers. Damaged containers require special attention, a damage assessment by qualified and experienced personnel, and careful handling to avoid any further incident. SPSI personnel are skilled at performing damage assessments, recommending the best courses of action, developing those action plans, and then performing the corrective actions. SPSI is trained and equipped to handle virtually all types of DOT shipping containers handling hazardous materials and environmentally regulated substances (tank cars, highway trailers, intermodal containers, totes, drums, cylinders, etc). In addition to the common liquid chemicals and petroleum products, SPSI has expertise, experience, and dedicated equipment for the safe handling of corrosive, poisonous, and flammable compressed gases, polymerizable materials, fuming acids, oxidizers, molten materials, cryogenic ethylene, and other very dangerous commodities. Once the products have been safely transferred into new containers, SPSI personnel clean and purge the damaged vessels right on site to make them safe for repairs or scrap recycling. Several cleaning and purging methodologies are available, and the best method is selected to suit the product and job site conditions. SPSI can safely perform hot tapping, cold tapping, liquid flaring, vapor flaring, chemical vapor filtration, chemical deactivation/neutralization, and other advanced tactics as necessary to accomplish the project objectives.
