Peatsorb
PEATSORB
PeatSorb Peat fibre absorbent is a very fine material suitable for most spills but is specially efficient on smooth surfaces such as roads and factory floors.
Peat Sorb is an environmental and user friendly hydrocarbon absorbent that is used in industry, hazmat spill clean up, remediation of contaminated soils, golf courses, and transportation systems around the world. Peat Sorb is a lightweight, non biodegradable product that absorbs or encapsulates hydrocarbons on contact rather than absorbing the oil through surface tension.
Cost Effective!
Peat Sorb users have reported a savings of 30 to 50 percent for the cost of cleaning up oil spills after using it for one year.
User Friendly!
Peat Sorb helps you to create a cleaner environment. Peat Sorb with absorbed oil passed the T.C.L.P. (Toxic Characteristic Leachate Procedure). Peat Sorb has an affinity for hydrocarbons of all types, including light and heavy oils, gasoline, diesel fuels, and even refined hydrocarbons like polyester resins and paint. Peat Sorb also suppresses 90 percent of gasoline vapors which eliminates the danger of explosion.
• Peat Sorb™ is an instant fix. It picks up any hydrocarbon on contact, virtually instantly, and renders it harmless to the environment. The following is a list of its unique characteristics:
• Peat Sorb™ is an environmentally friendly hydrocarbon absorbent product formulated from very specific naturally occurring vegetation.
• Peat Sorb™ will pick up a full range of petroleum products from crude oil to gasoline and has been used to solidify and absorb resins, PCB’s, coal tars, fatty acids, and hydrocarbon based inks.
• Peat Sorb™ is a modified, very specific, natural product that repels water (hydrophobic) but has the ability to absorb hydrocarbons on contact, lock them up and not release them back into the environment.
• Peat Sorb™ is equally effective on land or water.
• Peat Sorb™ is non-leaching. A hydrocarbon absorbed into Peat Sorb™ is retained until it is degraded naturally by the microbes contained in any bio-active soil.
• Peat Sorb™, which has absorbed a number of different hydrocarbons, has been tested by independent laboratories and meets requirements for landfill by passing the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure, (T.C.L.P.), the Paint Filter Test and the Liquid Release Test.
• Peat Sorb™ is an effective vapor suppressant.
• Peat Sorb™ is non-abrasive and can be used around machinery without fear of damage to metal, plastic or rubber parts.
• Peat Sorb™ is certified SEG Incinerable.
• Peat Sorb™ products are used daily around the world in factories, ships, transportation facilities, ports, refineries, garages, fire departments, remediation projects, boats and golf courses.
• Peat Sorb™ products are saving its users substantial sums of money while virtually eliminating their environmental liabilities and creating a safer and easier working environment for employees.
