What is Sphag Sorb? |
|
The finest grade of sphagnum moss from our bogs in Canada is the
starting point for SPHAG SORB. The peat fibers are separated from all
inorganic hard material, and then activated into a high-grade product
with a remarkable ability to absorb and encapsulate oils, solvents,
gas, diesel fuels, paints, glycol, heavy
metals, pesticides, herbicides, organic chemical
spills, cooking oil,
greases.
SPHAG SORB products are ideal for cleanup and containment of oil spills
in parking lots, machine shops, service stations, hazardous material,
and emergency response area, factories, transportation companies,
refineries, bulk terminals and all other environmental situations.

One Product - Convenient &
Economical Solution to
Contamination |

Versatile
 A single absorbent material capable of absorbing almost every
type of liquid from any type of land surface, and effectively removing
hydrocarbons from a water surface as well. Being a natural and organic
absorbent also provides a wider variety of options for disposal.
Anywhere hydrocarbons are found SPHAG SORB
has effectively absorbed: Gasoline, Diesel Fuel, Engine Oil, Gear Oil,
Hydraulic Oil, Transmission Oil, Organic Chemicals, Paints, Solvents,
Glycol, Antifreeze, Cooking Oil, Greases etc.
Complete Readiness
with One Inventory Item
SPHAG SORB is a natural organic absorbent that can be used in all
phases of spill clean ups:
ñ
The initial response to a spill.
ñ
The absorption and clean up of spilled liquids.
ñ
The removal and disposal of the contamination.
ñ
And the remediation of the contamination with or without
hydrocarbon digesting microbes.
SPHAG SORB is packaged in a variety of bags, containers, pads,
socks and spill kits which simplifies preparedness for spill responses.
This versatility translates into a simple, safe and complete readiness
for reaction to spills with one inventory item.
Economical
The price of the absorbent, the weight of the absorbent,
and the amount of liquid that can be absorbed per pound all determine
the value of the absorbent. An absorbents price is part of the equation
but often not the most costly part. The volume of waste generated; the
shipping costs and disposal costs are all a significant portion of the
total clean up cost. SPHAG SORB addresses all of these contributing
expenses as it will typically absorb 4 times its own weight and generate
much lower volumes of waste than competitive products. By using SPHAG
SORB, the cost associated with spill cleanups is cut three ways:
-
Less absorbent is required.
-
Lower weight and volume saves on shipping.
-
The cost of disposal is reduced because of lower volume.
Additional savings will be realized in the reduced labor and time
required because of the fast absorbing characteristics of SPHAG SORB.
