PEATSORB - Green Hydrocarbon & Chemicals AbsorbentDescription
Peatsorb has been subjected to a variety of laboratory tests. Most of these tests have been conducted in order to determine compliance with regulatory requirements, particulary in the United States.
Generally the various regulatory authorities in the United States require three performance test to determine whether a sorbent is suitable for landfill disposal. There are the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP), the Liquid Release Test and the Paint Filter Test. PeatSorb has successfully passed these tests and meets the requirements.
Of particular interest to the environmental community is the testing done at Michigan State University. When oil is spilled on grass, the grass dies, but when PeatSorb is applied over the spill the grass continuous to grow. These tests show that when a hydrocarbon is absorbed and encapsulated in PeatSorb, it is rendered harmless to the environment and creates a suitable spot for nature’s own microbes to break down the hydrocarbon naturally while not permitting any migration, resulting in the eventual remediation of the site.
