Fluid Tech's absorbents solidify aqueous solutions across a wide range of dissolved-solids levels, converting free liquid into a solid waste form suitable for licensed disposal at permitted facilities.
Absorbent Products
AQUASET® is a granular absorbent used to solidify aqueous solutions with low-to-moderate levels of dissolved solids.
- Water, with less than 0.01 M salts or organics
- Neutralized weak acids
- Water-miscible organics
- Slurries — IX resins; filter pre-coat
AQUASET II-G™ is a versatile absorbent that is used to treat aqueous solutions with extremely high levels of dissolved solids.
- Neutralized strong acids
- Neutralized weak acids
- Water-miscible organics
Fluid Tech's Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP), or sodium polyacrylate, is used to absorb and solidify a wide variety of aqueous waste waters.
- Water, with less than 0.01 M salts or organics
- Neutralized weak acids
- Water-miscible organics
- Slurries — IX resins; filter pre-coat
ENVIRO-G® is a granular, sepiolite-based absorbent used to solidify aqueous liquids — and it absorbs oil, diesel, fuel, greases, and hydrocarbons on contact. Fluid Tech supplies it fully outfitted in two grab-and-go spill response kits, the EG-50 Spill Response Kit and the PCB/Oil Kit (FTUTG50), each housed in a weather-resistant rotomolded case.
- Oil · Diesel · Fuel
- Lubricants & Greases
- Hydraulic Fluid · Transmission Fluid · Radiator Fluids
- Antifreeze · Solvents · Paint
- PCB-Contaminated Fluids
- Organic Liquids
- Aqueous liquids (solidification)
ENVIRO-Z™ is an all-natural mineral absorbent and neutralizer for corrosive chemical spills — it absorbs on contact and buffers pH, converting D002 corrosive waste spills into dry, landfill-ready solids. Fluid Tech supplies it fully outfitted in the EZ-50 Hazardous Corrosive Spill Kit. Not for use on hydrofluoric acid.
- Battery, Muriatic, Sulfuric & Hydrochloric Acids
- Caustics · Chlorine · Alkaline · Ammonia
- Detergents · Bleach · Drano · Bases
Advantages
Volumetric efficiency
Volume increase of wastes treated using Fluid Tech products is typically less than 20%.
Leach resistance
Fluid Tech products irreversibly bind radioactive and hazardous constituents through naturally occurring ion-exchange mechanisms.
Physical integrity
Wastes solidified with Fluid Tech products maintain their physical integrity through freeze-thaw conditions.
Adaptability
Fluid Tech products are designed to be stand alone, or used in combination with one another.
