Objective
Emergency oil and petroleum products spills are a relevant challenge at production, transportation, refining and storage of any types of petroleum products.
Petroleum products spills result both in direct costs (loss of commercial product, pollution of environment) and indirect costs (equipment downtime, failure to use water surface etc.)
Biomicrogel® BMG-P1 Sorbent and and Spilltex® filter cloth in a form of scoop net for collection of petroleum products or clothes for shallow rivers and shores are used as a response to impacts of emergency petroleum products spills in sea water and water with high hardness.
