English term or phrase: Bunding
What is a bund?

AS 4452B1997 defines a bund as: an impervious embankment of earth, or a wall of brick, stone, concrete or other suitable material, which may form part or all of the perimeter of a compound that provides a barrier to retain liquid. Since the bund is the main part of a spill containment system, the whole system (or bunded area) is colloquially referred to within industry as the "bund".

Kender nogle det danske udtryk for dette?

Hele frasen er "Storage of liquid chemicals shall be free of drainage holes and protected by sills (bunding, containment)."

sikringsvold/ beskyttelse med sikringsvold/ spunsvæg


Explanation:
sikringsvold

L&H Teknisk ordbog giver sikringsvold for bund.
US brug skal være 'bund wall', men det er det samme på dansk.

Jeg ved ikke, om du kan bruge det.

En anden mulighed er 'spunsvæg' - bestående af 'interlocking sheet piling', så den dækker ikke jordvolde, men det kan være brugt i nogle tilfælde.
