Oil-Only Absorbents
Absorbents that pick up petroleum-based liquids while repelling water.
Description
Oil-only absorbents absorb oil and other petroleum-based liquids while repelling water. Absorbency rates are stated as high as any polypropylene oil absorbent on the market. They are preferred over universal absorbents when oil is mixed with or floating on water, such as an oil spill on a lake or oil floating in a holding tank.
Key features
- Booms, exclusive to the oil-only line; length can be extended with ropes and hooks to contain a spill on water
- Pads, also used inside areas contained by booms; available in 3/8 inch and 3/16 inch thicknesses
- Socks, which perform on land the same containment function as booms on water
- Pillows, with optional grommets for securing in lakes, holding tanks and boat bilges
- Perforated white melt-blown polypropylene rolls
- Custom sizes and shapes available
Applications
- Oil spills on water and in holding tanks
- Boat bilges
- Plant maintenance around leaking machinery
