Memory Management

How do you free the memory which is occupied by a process but did not free due to a memory leakage in a UNIX box? I know /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches will remove the memory out that command does not work in our UNIX box so I want a command or steps to find the memory and release them. I can use ipcrm command to remove the shared memory segment or the memory but I need to make sure that the one I am trying to remove is the culprit?
