EcoMend | Environmentally Conscious Bioremediation
QUESTIONS…? WE HAVE ANSWERS!
EcoMend is a state of the art oil and hydrocarbon absorbent material made from a high grade sphagnum peat moss.
With a patented systematic drying process, the water is removed from the product without damaging base bio-skeletal framework. This allows the base structure to retain its ability to encapsulate hydrocarbons.
EcoMend has the ability to effectively absorb and encapsulate all petroleum-based products.
EcoMend is an all-natural product that is considered non-toxic and non-carcinogenic to both humans and animals.
When ignited, by itself EcoMend only smolders, however if the liquid that is absorbed is flammable (such as gasoline) then the entire substance will be flammable.
EcoMend has been tested and it meets and exceeds EPA, OSHA & ANSI guidelines. EcoMend has also passed the TLCP & PFT tests.
EcoMend has a low ash residue of only 2% and a high BTU value of 17,000 is a clear choice for disposal through incineration. Disposal through landfills is still a viable solution for waste solution of oil and gas mixed with EcoMend. However by choosing this method please be aware of all Federal, State, and local laws that regulate the governing of the landfills and what may be disposed into them.
EcoMend encapsulates the hydrocarbons and entraps then into its cellular structure. After the hydrocarbon is encapsulated the action of naturally occurring microorganisms enhances the natural breakdown of the hydrocarbons. The microbial activity will break the hydrocarbons down into carbon dioxide and water. This breakdown occurs within a period of three months to a year, depending on variables such as sunlight, oxygen, temperatures, etc.
