OCLANSORB is a nontoxic, nonabrasive organic blonde sphagnum peat moss harvested from the bogs of Newfoundland. It is a lightweight, natural hydrocarbon absorbent: more cost effective, more efficient absorbency power, and easier to use than any other products.
WHAT IS OCLANSORB?
- A nontoxic, nonabrasive organic blonde sphagnum peat moss harvested from the bogs of Newfoundland.
- A lightweight, natural hydrocarbon absorbent: more cost effective, more efficient absorbency power, and easier to use than any other products.
- OCLANSORB is the component used in all socks, booms & kits.
WHAT DOES OCLANSORB DO?
Absorbs hydrocarbons by encapsulating them on contact. Requires less product for storage and disposal. 1 lb. of OCLANSORB will absorb approximately 1 gallon of oil. Absorbs hydrocarbons on contact and resists taking on water.
- Will reduce up to 90% of combustible vapors upon application due to its high vapor suppression capacity.
- Removes ALL free oil from spill sites upon extraction.
- Absorbs hydrocarbons on land, on hard surfaces i.e., asphalt, concrete, motor pool parking lots, and on water.
HOW DOES OCLANSORB WORK?
- Absorbs hydrocarbons quickly with its capillary action and porous structure.
- Encapsulates hydrocarbons, including PCB's - on contact - taking in the hydrocarbon, rather than allowing the hydrocarbon to attach to the outer surface of the product.
- Has a 5% moisture level which aids in its high absorbency rate. OCLANSORB goes through a patented process.
- Easy to apply, easy to clean up.
- Leaves behind no messy residue after clean up.
WHAT ARE OCLANSORB'S ADVANTAGES?
- Safe for the environment nontoxic, and biodegradable.
- Passes the North American Leachate Standards. Will not release captured hydrocarbons in the environment.
- Reduces man-hours required for cleanup.
- Absorbs all oil based products including PCB's and oil based paint.
- Requires less product for for spill cleanup which cuts cost.
- Less product used means less volume hauled and disposed of in the landfill. SAVES VALUABLE LANDFILL SPACE.
- Can be incinerated. On its own will contribute 7,200 BTU's per pound during incineration (excluding POL products.) And leaves behind only 0.42% ash residual.
- Recycling and biodegradability are major environmental concerns. OCLANSORB is the answer to these concerns.
