ABSTRACT:
A method for cleaning contaminated surfaces or for cleaning bulk contamination of hydrocarbons or chemicals. To clean hydrocarbon or chemical contaminated surfaces, a basic aqueous silica solution is sprayed onto the contaminated surface and allowed to dry. The resulting dry material will flake off, leaving a cleaned surface, without damaging the surface. To clean bulk contamination of hydrocarbons or chemicals, the basic silica solution is mixed with hydrocarbons or chemicals and then an acidic aqueous polymer solution is added and mixed. An amorphous silica material is immediately formed which permanently encapsulates the hydrocarbons or chemicals and which dries to an inert powder.
