Uses for Naturesorb

Where Naturesorb Works

Petroleum industry
Naturesorb can be sprayed on to spills on land or water and can be used to filter oil-contaminated water in bunds and lagoons. It can handle anything from major spills at point of extraction to minor fuel leaks on a service station forecourt.

Airports
Naturesorb is ideal for an environment where it is essential to clean up any fuel spill immediately and completely. Simply sprinkled on leaked jet fuel, Naturesorb will totally absorb the spill within seconds.

Emergency response
Front line workers like firemen can quickly and easily use Naturesorb to neutralise leaked fuels at the scene of an accident. Environmental clean-up specialists can use Naturesorb to deal effectively with all kinds of hydrocarbon spills from floating oil slicks to clotted coastlines and oil-soaked wildlife.

Ports, harbors and marinas
Everywhere there is motorised marine transport there will inevitably be oil and fuel contamination. Strategically placed stocks of Naturesorb will ensure that any spill, on land or water, can be quickly dealt with before it becomes an environmental hazard.

Road transport
No truck should be without a small bag of Naturesorb to mop up any fuel spill immediately and completely.

Manufacturing industry and mining
Naturesorb is a new weapon in the HSE armoury to ensure that the workplace is kept clean and hazard-free in the event of spills whatever they are: sulphuric acid, oil-based paints, vegetable or fish oils, blood, animal fats. In mining, Naturesorb can be used to filter/ionise effluent and remove cyanide and heavy metals.

Land remediation
Soil contaminated with hydrocarbons can be returned to its clean, natural state by digging in Naturesorb which absorbs the contaminants so that they can be safely removed and disposed of. In this way, the value of low grade sites can be significantly increased without a heavy investment in conventional soil cleaning techniques.
