kontaminering


For what it's worth, we generally call that contamination. Common causes are: plant staff connecting the wrong hose (or instructing the driver to connect it, which is against plant procedure - pointing a finger at one of five hoses is hardly SOP), improperly cleaned tank containers or hoses.

Example sentence:

Suitable materials for containers: [...] Aluminium, Carbon steel (Iron). [...] Contamination with other substances must be avoided. Storage together with other substances, especially hazardous substances, must be avoided.
