Waste Lock® Oil Absorbents

The absorption and stabilization of oils and organic fluid wastes is complicated by the wide variety of viscosities, KB-Values and molecular weights found in these types of wastes.  There really is no “One Size Fits All” absorbent product.

The chemical properties of a disparate range from gasoline/diesel fuel to a myriads of oils to chlorinated hydrocarbons each present unique challenges.

Also, the downstream demands – incineration versus landfill – affect the choice of absorbent to be used.

For this reason, M² Polymer Technologies offers several alternatives:

Waste Lock® Organoclay BM-Qt-199

• Quat-Surface Modified Bentonite
  
• Can be used to remove oil from a water flow
  
• Available as powder or 30 mesh granular

Waste Lock® Organoclay TA-11

• Surface Modified Bentonite (w/ non-Quat Treatment)
• Can be used to remove oil from a water flow
  
• Available as powder or 30 mesh granular

Waste Lock® M-107 Oil Absorbent

• Proprietary Polymer/Mineral Blend
  
• Wider range of effectiveness

Waste Lock® M-107 Product Attributes:

1. Significantly more absorbent than clays and other mineral absorbents.
2. Non-Biodegradable Polymer (40 CFR 264.314 (e)(ii))
3. Wider range of efficacy.
4. When Used Properly, Wastes Will Pass Paint Filter Test (EPA 9095).

Comparison (using 10W 30 Motor Oil):

* Absorbency Factor is the amount of absorbent required to absorb one pound of motor oil.
