New generation of graphene-based materials for oils and hydrocarbons adsorption
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
GRAFYSORBER™ is an innovative, ecological and effective solution, based on natural graphite and produced through a patented process, which is able to adsorb very quickly and with inimitable performances any type of oil and hydrocarbon from water. GRAFYSORBER™ is usable as loose materials, within containment means and filtering systems (booms, pillows, pads, filters, etc.).
MAIN FEATURES
• SUPER PERFORMING MATERIAL: Performs at least 5 times better than the other sorbents actually on the market and is able to remove hydrocarbons even at low concentrations, reaching a potability level.
• COST/EFFECTIVE: Favours the recovery and the recycling of adsorbed oil, substantially limiting the production of waste. It can be produced directly on-site and on-demand.
• ECO-FRIENDLY: Is completely ecologic as it’s inert, not flammable, recyclable and doesn’t contain toxic substances.
• UNIQUE and PATENTED: Is produced by a unique Patented Plasma Super-Expansion Process (G+ Technology).
• APPROVED: It obtained the approval from the Italian Environmental Ministry for oil-spills clean-up.
