On the other hand, the part of the distillation plant that needs to be cleaned is the boiler. If emergency stop control does not fit your context, they may just be referring simply to the boiler.

inhibitor


Explanation:
מעצרה in this context is something that must be cleaned.
מַעֲצוֹר is an inhibition. Inhibitors play a role in the distillation process, but I don't know enough chemistry to understand this. I'm just guessing. Does it make sense?

Example sentence(s):
  • Isolation and Identification of Ethyl Caffeate, a Plant Growth Inhibitor, from a Sweetpotato Shochu Distillery By-product
  • Enhancement of the anaerobic digestion of wine distillery wastewater by the removal of phenolic inhibitors.

  -> This sentence deals with the workings of a distillery plant. Apparently distillery wastewater is a major pollutant and methods to treat the wastewater may involve biologic processes.

Spill stop


Explanation:
This is from the pdf link:
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

LARGE SPILL: Stop spill at source. Dike area of spill to prevent spreading. Pump liquid to salvage tank. Absorb liquid on solid absorbent material and shovel into containers. Prevent run-off to sewers, streams or other bodies of water. Wash floors with detergent and rinse with hot water to prevent slipping.

WATER SPILL: Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways.
LAND SPILL: Soak up with absorbent. Shovel up and place in a waste container.
