Oil Absorbent - BioTreat OA10 is a
unique, recyclable oil absorbent
product that has been developed specifically for absorbing
fuel and oil spills. In most cases oil and fuel spills
are cleared by absorbing the liquid onto a medium such
as sand or earth, sweeping up and then disposing of
the product as a hazardous waste. The costs for removal
and landfill are expensive and will continue to rise.
Using OA 10, BioTreat have devised a method, which reduces
the frequency of removal and landfill, hence saving
money.
The benefits of BioTreat OA10 are significant and include:
- Significantly reduces landfill
costs.
- Safe to use.
- Easy to use, no special machinery
required.
- Environmentally friendly.
BioTreat OA10 contains a proprietary blend of microbes
coated onto the surface of the absorbent medium. This
absorbent can absorb upto 130% of its own mass in liquid.
Once the product has been applied to a spill, the material
is placed in a drum and left for the microbes to digest
the oil or fuel. There is an obvious price advantage
in reducing the frequency of landfilling hazardous waste,
but there is an additional advantage in that the hydrocarbons
from the oil or fuel will be more rapidly degraded after
landfill as the action of the microbes continues to
work.
