A New Tool Accomplishing Astounding Results In Record Time
Our patented Oil Spill Solidifier® provides a new tool for Tanker Owners, Emergency Response Teams, On-site Coordinators and Environmental Clean-up Companies. Compared to the lackluster performance of skimmers and absorbent booms in recovering oil and other hydrocarbon spills from water, solidifiers accomplish astounding results in record time. As soon as our patented Oil Spills Solidifier® comes into contact with any type of hydro-carbonate derivatives it changes the carbon-link immediately causing a new solid composite mass.
For emergency application the patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient is sprayed in pulverized form over the oil surface by means of a high-pressure gas in a quantity equal to the oil (this can be decreased to10-20% oil equivalent for ongoing remediation). Then it solidifies and hardens creating a solid (foam-like) substance floating on the water (or land) surface. The solidified material can be collected by mechanical means. A 95-99% efficiency can be achieved in cleaning the water surface by removing the solidified material. Both the patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient and the oil can be extracted from the solidified material by means of a simple process already developed and available. The spraying equipment can be mounted on the back of a boat (assisting boat) or can be implemented on shore.
Recovery of Hydro Carbon and Solidifier
The separation process provides the opportunity to extract, recycle and resell the oil. The remaining patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient can be re-used as well. The separation loss is around 5-15%. As a result of an onging and continuous remediation process of gathering and separation, the use of the patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient could decrease from 100% oil equivalent to 10-20% oil equivalent. The recycled and re-sold oil covers a significant part of the patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient cost. The patented Oil Spill Solidifier® active ingredient used is non-toxic and it is not harmful to wildlife. The patented Oil Spill Solidifier® complies with international ISO standards.
