Biomicrogel encapsulators are an innovative product in the market that can temporarily jellify the oil slick stopping it from spreading, making it stand out from the conventional sorbents and dispersants in terms of efficiency, ease of application and oil skimming while retaining the highest environmental profile.

Treatment with biomicrogel® encapsulator may increase oil viscosity by up to a factor of 100,000x efficiently containing the spill spread
Once collected, if it makes commercial or environmental sense, reverse solubility of biomicrogels mentioned earlier allows to separate the biomicrogel®-oil sludge mixture (with a mobile unit): biomicrogels can be reused up to 5 times and collected oil recovered and reused
Biomicrogel®-encapsulated oil does not adhere to objects, does not support combustion, suppresses light hydrocarbons` fumes, thus, enhancing H&S profile of oil spill response measures
Biomicrogel encapsulator can be handled, stored long-term and transported in dry form, diluted with water before application, sprayed on the oil spill in the liquid form using conventional dispersant spraying equipment
Biomicrogel®-treated oil spill is easily skimmed from water using conventional skimming equipment. Independent lab tests show oil absorption capacity of 50:1 and oil removal efficiency of over 99%
Specialised biomicrogel® modifications were developed for colder environments (e.g. the North Sea) effective at temperatures of -19°C
Biomicrogel® encapsulator can be applied to clean spills on water surface, under water and on land and shores.
