Placing material over a breach and holding it in place to stop flow. Patching.
Inserting, driving, or screwing a chemically compatible object into the breach of a container to reduce or temporarily stop the flow. Plugging.
Physical or chemical method of containment by which the internal pressure of a closed container is reduced. Pressure isolation and reduction.
Physical method of confinement by which a liquid is temporarily contained in an area where it can be absorbed, neutralized, or picked up for proper disposal. Retention.
Causing a liquid to solidify. Solidification.
Physically moving a liquid, gas or some forms of solids either manually, by pump, or by pressure transfer. Transfer.
