How to delete multiple material instances (automatically)

I have a Rhino question for those of you who use Rhino5 WIP.

My scene contains many duplicate material because of exporting and importing to and from other Rhino users.
Is there away to delete material duplicates in Rhino5 automatically?
I don't have problems with Octane materials but in Rhino there are many material duplicates so it gets kind of confusing to have 340 materials in the material editor with many duplicates.
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks.

Good advice Daniel. Thank you.

Now I have found out how to remove these duplictes:
Simply by using the 'purge' command in Rhino.
