Case Study: Routine Facility Uses of SAP

Many environmental contractors use super absorbent polymers to solidify liquid wastes collected as part of pit and tank cleanings, lagoon maintenance, and general facility contracting.

Most facilities have converted their waste solidification processes to super absorbent polymers as a means to save money by reducing waste volumes and, consequently, disposal costs. While SAP is not entirely appropriate for some waste streams, it has been found to be effective in most instances.

SAP is an effective, efficient, and cost-effective replacement for saw dust, lime kiln dust, and Portland cement, whose heavy weights make transportation and disposal expensive. Super absorbent polymers expand the size of your liquid waste by only 1%!

Benefits of Super Absorbent Polymers:

  • Rapid Absorption & Solidification
  • Minimal Volume Increase
  • Generates Less Dust
  • Cleaner
  • Quicker
  • Less Expensive

Typical in-plant solidification of a wide range of non-hazardous waste. ZapZorb super absorbent polymer can significantly reduce high volume increases and disposal costs associated with traditional solidifiers such as saw dust, lime kiln dust, and/or Portland cement.
