Bio-Boom - Petroleum Remediation Product (PRP)
BIO-BOOM is an easy-to-use, completely non-toxic and environmentally sound means of capturing and biodegrading oil and fuel that gathers in one area such as an oil spill at sea or on a beach or an industrial oil water separator unit.
Taking an oil interceptor as an example, the BIO-Boom is placed in the second chamber where id absorbs and eradicates the oil, turning the liquid hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water. The BioBoom will take in the oil pollutant inside its matrix and eradicate both the oil and its odour in situ.
Bio-Booms when deployed on a river, lake or coastal oil spill are extremely efficient at both absorbing the oil and then more importantly eradicating the oil within the Bio-Boom itself. The PRP crystals within each Bio-Boom are capable or eradicating 20 times their own body weight in fuel i.e., 1 Kg of PRP can eradicate 20 Kg of oil, one Kg at a time. When the PRP crystals have completed this task you are left with an empty cotton outer which can be disposed of in a standard trash can. That is correct, the used Bio-Boom does not have to be discarded in a licensed toxic dump.
