BioBoom contains environmentally safe and biodegradable Petroleum Remediation Product (PRP) which can absorb and biodegrade petroleum hydrocarbon spills. Use it to control and remediate spills on the water or on soil, in stormwater applications, or where you want to clean up or prevent petroleum contamination. PRP consists of tiny spheres of treated wax containing nutrients. When spheres come in contact with spilled oil, it binds with the hydrocarbons thru encapsulation. Nutrients in the sphere help microorganisms, present in the immediate environment, devour the spheres until they eat every droplet of oil. PRP will absorb and remediate more than 20 times its weight.
BioBoom can be used to bioremediate oil, diesel fuel, liquid petroleum, gasoline and other hydrocarbon spills to contain and cleanup actual and anticipated oil and fuel spills on water. When oil spill cleanup is required, or oil clean up products are needed near potential spill areas, BioBoom can be a ready response for all hydrocarbon spills. When placed in strategic locations, BioBoom can restrict the spread of oil spills which have occurred, or manage areas where an anticipated oil or liquid petroleum spill could occur.
Many absorbent products contain oil spills, but most are not 100% natural or biodegradable. That’s what makes PRP BioBoom unique. In addition to quickly containing an oil spill or other hydrocarbon spill, these remediation booms will also biodegrade the contaminant, then biodegrade itself. Because no secondary contaminants are left, your disposal costs are reduced or eliminated. There is no need to worry about disposal issues associated with common absorbents which only soak up oil spills, but do not biodegrade and totally cleanup the oil spill.
When an oil spill occurs in open water, containment is important, but completely remediating, or biodegrading oil and liquid petroleum from water is very improtnt. BioBooms can contain a spreading spill while the PRP inside consumes the pollution.
Whether oil spills are in open water, marinas, holding ponds or lagoons, BioBooms hold the hydrocarbon spill in place, while the PRP works. When the oil is gone, the PRP degrades itself leaving only empty fabric. Theirs is no toxic waste requiring tedious expensive disposal.
