The following are just a few reasons to use Bio-Matrix to clean up toxic spills. To obtain a printable version of this page, please click here. A Bio-Matrix usage catalog, including case studies, can be found here.
Results of multiple lab-controlled tests by external entities can be found here. If your project requires remediation, we also have a Bio-Matrix remediation catalog available here.
Bio-Matrix:
Is a non-toxic, all natural, 100% organic, lab-tested, field proven, industrial absorbent that is economical, efficient, non-abrasive, non-toxic, non-leaching and in its natural state is already biodegraded. The inherent capillary action of the activated peat provides a powerful wicking action and encapsulates oils, solvents, heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides and all other organic chemicals on contact.
Suppresses vapors and absorbs hydrocarbons on land or water in dry and wet conditions, and does not require specially trained technicians or high tech equipment for handling or disposing of the spent peat.
Weighs little and affords users the ability to carry more, clean up more, and save on transportation and disposal costs.
That is used will not leach or discharge used pollutants, making it clean and easy to handle.
That is used can be incinerated or disposed of in landfills and land can be farmed with no detrimental effects to the environment.
Is the ideal host for use in the microbial degradation/bio-remediation of contaminated land. It also contains HAC, a natural organic catalyst that accelerates the process of microbial degradation bringing the soil back to its original condition in a fraction of the usual time frame.
As an energy source contributes 8,400 BTUs per lb./18,500 per kilo weight of product, excluding absorbed hydrocarbons, and burns to a residue of less than 2% of its original volume.
Is available in compressed and loose-filled bags, in booms, socks, cushions and pads, in various combinations of spill kits, and in customized filtration and bio-remediation treatment packages.
