The World’s First Truely Environmentally Friendly Solution for Oil and Hydrocarbon

Recover-Reduce-Recycle
What is RecoveritWhat 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 RecyclingRecoverit 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 EnvironmentRecoverit 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 SeaRecoverit 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-ApplicationRecoverit-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 LandRecoverit 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 AirRecoverit 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 InlandRecoverit 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 Existing Methods for Cleaning Oil Spills and Contaminated Landand Contaminated Land
