  • CIAGENT

    Technical product bulletin: formerly CHEAP INSURANCE, PETRO-CAPTURE, this miscellaneous oil spill control agent used in cleanups encapsulates and solidifies oil, remaining buoyant. Also available in oil absorbent, water repellant booms and pillows.

  • CORIBA 700 SR

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups reduces interfacial tension between oil and sand. Contaminated sand is placed in sand washer filled with product, oil floats to surface to remove with auger, then centrifuge sand

  • CORIBA 713 SR

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent, used in spill cleanups, removes and recovers oil from sand. It is an aqueous solution that reduces interfacial tension so that the oil no longer adheres to the sand and can float the surface.

  • DE-SOLV-IT CLEAN AWAY APC SUPER CONCENTRATE

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups can be used in either salt or fresh water, on all oil coated surfaces including sand, vegetation, and rocks through a detergency mechanism. Dilute with 1:1 ratio.

  • DE-SOLV-IT INDUSTRIAL FORMULA

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups is used in neat form. Works with fresh or salt water, with all types of oils, on contaminated beaches.

  • DO-ALL #18

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent is for oil spill cleanups on beaches, rocks, piers, bilges, decks, waterline scum, rigs, platforms, tanks, barges engine rooms, machinery, and grease traps. Pre-treatment/soaking may be needed.

  • DRYLET™ MB BIO

    Technical product bulletin: this agent (biological additive: microbiological culture) is used in oil spill cleanups on organic and hydrocarbon-based contamination. Can be applied to soil, open water, marsh, wetlands, or estuary areas of any salinity.

  • DUALZORB®

    Technical product bulletin: aka TRAILZORB, WHITZORB, this bioremediation agent (biological additive: microbiological culture) must be rehydrated before use in oil spill cleanups. Manufactured for land use, it will absorb hydrocarbon, waste oil, and fuel.

  • ENVIRONMENTAL 1 CRUDE OIL CLEANER

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent is used in oil spill cleanups on solid surfaces including beaches, rocks, machines, buildings, and tools. The oil and cleaner form a loose emulsion that can be rinsed away.

  • EO ALL PURPOSE SOAP-LAVENDER

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups should be applied full strength on heaviest contamination first, by pouring, spraying (when diluted 1:4), dispensing equipment, or by scrubbing machines.

  • ERGOFIT USA, LLC

    Technical product bulletin: this bioremediation agent (microbiological culture, enzyme additive, nutrient additive) for oil spill cleanups generally takes 5 to 50 minutes to penetrate molecular walls of hydrocarbons, and breaks down adhesive properties.

  • ETHOS CLEAN

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent used in oil spill cleanups has a minimum 30 minutes recommended soak time. Can be used with salt or fresh water, on hard surfaces, shorelines, rocks, and beaches.

  • F-500

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent used in oil spill cleanups can be applied using standard fire apparatus spray nozzle with agitation onto and into spill. Effective on both polar and non-polar hydrocarbons.

  • FFT-SOLUTION®

    Technical product bulletin: this dispersant for oil spill cleanups should be applied as droplets. Manufacturer recommends that spray tips on booms be changed into solid tubing for injection of product 3 to 5 feet below water surface.

  • G-CLEAN OSC-1809

    Technical product bulletin: aka OIL SPILL CLEANUP, this surface washing agent may be applied liberally to heavily weathered oil on rocks or beaches/sand, vegetation, or at full strength on tar balls. Best results if allowed to soak, agitated, or reapplied.

  • GOLD CREW SW

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups should be applied through hand pump sprayer and allowed to presoak, time depending on type of oil and weather conditions. Then apply through power washer or steam powered unit.

  • GOLD CREW® TC

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent for oil spill cleanups desorbs or strips the hydrocarbon off the surface of the solid through surface tension reduction enhanced with physical agitation. The action is not a chemical reaction.

  • GREEN BEAST™ OIL SPILL & ODOR REMEDIATOR

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent used in oil spill cleanups works best applied at high pressure, for treating hydrocarbons on beaches, rocks, and hard surfaces. Preferably applied over 3 consecutive days on heavy spills.

  • GREEN TECHNOLOGIES SOLUTIONS-OIL RECOVERY (GTS-OR)

    Technical product bulletin: this surface washing agent used in oil spill cleanups may clean oil from beaches, rocks, riprap, pilings, and seawalls. May be used in freshwater, estuarine, and marine environments.

  • HYDRO-BOND™

    Technical product bulletin: this miscellaneous oil spill control agent – solidifier is best used in contained systems such as barriers, socks, mats, blankets, etc.
