Oil spill and oil products liquidation
The best way to help nature is to eliminate the consequences of ecological catastrophes. We all know that oil spill destroys life in the water and on earth. Humanity should take care of it, make it not happen, to realize that environment – his natural resource. But oil spill happens by many reasons and these disastrous oil patches should be eliminated.
It is preferable to use sorbing material: adsorbent and absorbent, which are included in a one group of sorbents. Oil sorbents are high-quality materials. Their function is water and ground purification. Because of it’s hygroscopic structure, porosity and large specific surface sorbent absorbs oil from any landscape field: water space, ground and swamp. Sorbent treatment gives a large benefit by eliminating accidents, and it’s very easy now to buy oil sorbent or water sorbent. There are a lot of types of materials in the world, which are created for different purposes - pollution abatement, water purifications or sorbents of toxic agents. Adsorbent and absorbent marks are varied: carbonic sorbent, fibrous sorbent, polymeric sorbent, carbon fiber sorbent, CCHR sorbent, carbonic sorbent, ODM sorbent, chelate sorbent.
Absorbent and adsorbent.
What is the difference between absorbent and adsorbent? Adsorbent is the material with the process of absorption by means of physical superficial attraction (adsorbents has a large specific surface). The most popular adsorbents are absorbent carbons of different marks. And absorbent materials make diffuse process of absorption by all it’s volume.
Natural absorbents and adsorbents are merchantable in industrial companies because of high efficiency. The price for sorbent oil products (which are made from natural resources) is much lower than the price for other chemical products and other sorbents, that is why sorbent sale made from such materials don’t bring losses to the companies pocket. Modern high-quality sorbents, which are based on the natural peat (proper use) are pressed to the brick fuel, because of the biodegradation that lasts about 120 days, used-up natural absorbent is transformed to the agrarian peat.
The “Terra Ecology” company provides active deployment to the market connected with environmental protection, complex technological solutions which are based on the usage of natural materials. The company settles ecology problems and adduces a wide range of sorbents for oil patch liquidation and oil products under trade marks «Spill-Sorb» and «Naturesorb», which are based on ecologically clean materials – peat and all components that use unique characteristics of peat. The main advantages of «Spill Sorb» and «Naturesorb» absorbent is ability of biodegradation of absorbed carbohydrates and desorption absence. “Kit LARN” is based on this sorbent. It is the kit for quick reaction when pollution by oil spill, oil products and oil chemicals happen. One of the components of oil pollution purification is the process of oil sorbents usage for oil spill absorption. Nowadays in the Russian Federation a lot of organic and inorganic sorbents are used. Their absorbing capacity differs a lot. Constant techno-economic criterion is price and absorbing capacity correlation.
The “Terra ecology” company tries to solve the problem by the ecological approach. First of all, usable sorbent has to solve all problems as soon as possible, and the most perfect way is to optimize costs for liquidation of spill oil consequences. The environment – is our true riches, and we have to keep it safe for the next generations!
