DISPOSAL OPTIONS
Landfill Disposal
EcoSorb has been tested to the USEPA Leachate standards for landfill disposal.
Incineration
When saturated, the special EcoSorb granules have high calorific power and burn to less than 3% ash. These elements make it ideal to be incinerated.
Alternative Fuel Source
The BTU value of used EcoSorb special granules is very high.
Biodegradation
EcoSorb special cork granules are biologically stable and free of harmful micro-organisms. When they are disposed of, they provide the environment needed for the development of bio-degrading organisms that can oxidize the absorbed hydrocarbons faster than the biodegradation of the special cork granules themselves.
PRODUCTS
Act quickly and effectively
EcoSorb Granules
Act quickly and effectively. Regardless of the type of oil that has polluted both porous and rough surfaces, the cork granules provide complete and thorough cleaning of the surface. The lightweight of the cork granules not only offers benefits for the workplace and workers but also keeps the disposal costs low.
