Coconut sorbent for collecting oil spills and oil products of the Sheltic C brand

Coconut sorbent for collecting oil spills

Shelltic C (Shelltik C) is completely natural and nontoxical absorbent. Shelltic About an environmentally friendly product on an organic basis, is made of coconut shell shaving with application of the bezreagentny production technology. In the natural state biologically and chemically it is not active, is absolutely inert, not abrasive, nonslipping and practically does not raise dust.

Coconut Shelltic C absorbent differs in well developed microporous structure and high durability that allows it to absorb and encapsulate effectively - to conclude in so-called "capsules", i.e. to isolate oil, oil products and all absorbed chemicals at contact. Shelltic C absorbent is ideal for mitigation of consequences of technogenic environmental disasters, such as emergency oil spills, oil products, acids and other chemicals. The sorbent of Shelltic C is effectively applied to elimination of oil spills from the Earth's surface and water, under any weather conditions. The coconut sorbent of Shelltic C very quickly absorbs, one kilogram of Shelltic C absorbs from four to nine kilograms oil products. Extent of absorption depends on viscosity of oil products. Absorbent of Shelltic C oil effectively catches volatile combustible vapors of oil and oil products, minimizing thereby risk of emergence of explosion and fire in the territory of use of absorbent, and also eliminates a smell. Coconut absorbent of Shelltic C oil practically has no desorption, it effectively holds the absorbed oils and oil products. At absorption of oil and Shelltic C oil products does not increase in volume and does not lose mechanical durability. Thanks to heat treatment the sorbent possesses hydrophobic property, absorbs oil products, but not water then as the float keeps on a water surface and has long buoyancy.

Shelltic C absorbent possesses natural ability to full biodegradation of the absorbed oils and oil products that allows after carrying out agroprocessing, to leave it on the earth for the subsequent weeding - a remediation and recultivation. The coconut sorbent of Shelltic C is an agent for a remediation and recultivation, lands and does not give in to leaching.

The sorbent of Shelltic C does not contain mineral particles or any other chemicals, toxins, pesticides and is absolutely safe, both for environment ecology, and for the people liquidating consequences of emergency oil spill and oil products.
