Three workers have been decontaminated and treated by paramedics after a hydrochloric acid spill in suburban Melbourne.

Fire crews were called to Spray Avenue at Mordialloc after midday on Monday when a 20-litre drum spilled, with contaminants potentially including hydrogen peroxide.

The scene was brought under control within 10 minutes but firefighters will stay at the scene to continue decontamination.
