Recover-Reduce-Recycle Recoverit The World’s First Truely Environmentally Friendly Solution for Oil and Hydrocarbon Pollution Recover-Reduce-Recycle

What is Recoverit Recoverit comes as white or speckled granule that can ADSORB all types of oils/hydrocarbons be they Mineral, Vegetable, Animal or Synthetic Is Hydrophobic and Oliphilic Becomes a glutinous gel when attached to oil Can be used on Water, Sand and Soil or in the Atmosphere.-see diagrams Adsorbs up to 10 times it’s own weight I Kilo of Recoverit can pick up between 100 to 600 litres of oil through re-use Additionally picks up VOCs,H2SO4,H2S Only absorbs 0.1% water

Recoverit and Recycling Separates very easily from collected oils Separates oil/water in emulsified state Recoverit can be reused many times by specific equipment developed for Recoverit’s unique continuous processes. Recoverit is environmentally friendly and reduces or completely eliminates secondary pollution by redeeming hydrocarbons from the process and eliminating need for landfill Recovered hydrocarbons can be easily transformed into bio-diesel Spent Recoverit may be recycled into hot mix bitumen

Recoverit in The Environment Is Non-Toxic, Non-Hazardous and Non-Flammable Reduces impact of oil spill on wild life as completely harmless to marine life, birds and humans Work “in situ “at sea Work “in situ” on beaches Eliminates need for detergents/dispersants

Recoverit at Sea Keeps collected oil afloat indefinitely allowing time for orderly pick-up Product can be “coloured” for easy spotting of oil spill by aircraft Works on all types of oil Works even in bad/rough weather Can refloat oil from sea bed Can maintain buoyancy of damaged vessel by pumping into hull

Recoverit-Application Small Spills-Simply apply by hand-completely safe Medium Spills-Can be air blown onto the surface or underneath the water, natural buoyancy will collect and float Large Spills-Can be dropped from air in large quantities where wave action helps mix and adsorb

Recoverit on Land Eliminates need for long wait from use of microbes and vapour release Removes need for transportation of contaminated sand or soil as can work continuously on site. By cleaning quickly, efficiently and in “situ” can add considerable value to real estate Combination of soil cleaning and air filters can be used to clean up contaminated sights in crowded environments such as old petrol stations in city areas Emergency spill kits for highways, service stations, power plants and telecommunication relay stations

Recoverit in Air Can extract fumes very easily from confined spaces such wings of aircraft Filter hydrocarbons from funnels, motorway tunnels, storage silos Extract fumes from spray booths and printing establishments Cleaning of industrial premises Extract fumes from tankers Filters in air conditioning vents, Filters in vents of storage silos for hydrocarbons

Recoverit Inland Recoverit can remove hydrocarbons in water treatment plants Efficiently clean lakes and rivers especially when water/oil emulsified. Remove hydrocarbons from bore/ground water

Existing Methods for Cleaning Oil Spills and Contaminated Land Detergents, Straw,Sawdust,Absorbent Pads, Kitty Litter, Polymers Single Use Carcinogenic Doesn’t float on water Soaks up water as well as oil Dispersants just hide the problem You then have to dispose of the oil and the product you used in cleaning the spill through landfill or incineration
