Function:
A safe and effective method to neutralize and solidify hazardous acid spills. The kit contains basic personal safety wear, clean-up equipment and SorbaSet S Neutralizing Acid solidifier powder. Designed for a quick response to leaking or spill acids, including battery acid (electrolyte).

REGULATORY CONSIDERATION :
Personnel safety risks and environmental hazards are minimized. Handles "Foreseeable Emergency" during "uncontrolled release of hazardous material" (OSHA 1910.1200). Satisfies spill neutralizer requirements in OSHA 1926.441 & 1910.178("Facilities must have means to neutralize spilled acid." EPA "New Technology and Spill Containment Programs" Federal Register Vol 55, No. 72/April 13, 1990; "Agents are available that solidify, neutralize, and suppress vaporization.")

EFFECTIVELY NEUTRALIZES AND SOLIDIFIES:
Sulfuric, Hydrochloric, Phosphoric, and Nitric Acids.
Not recommended for Hydrofluoric Acid Spills.

WHY SOLIDIFY HAZARDOUS WASTES?

Amendments to the RCRA regulations enacted on November 8, 1994 prohibit land burial of free liquids, and liquids absorbed on biodegradable substrates or materials that release liquids under pressure.

"I picked up my spills with an olefin or clay based absorbent. Isn't that good enough?"

If you pick up a spill of an acid or alkali with an absorbent you STILL have the same material; just as corrosive, toxic, and reactive as before. Absorbents DO NOT CHANGE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A WASTE! So just sponging up a waste doesn't make it go away.

That absorbed waste MUST be neutralized and solidified before landfill burial! If you don't do it, your waste management company must. And they will CHARGE for this treatment, at quite a rate. If you just discard the absorbed waste, (DON'T) you are liable for 5 and 6 digit fines, even jail sentences!

This bar graph below demonstrates the retention abilities of solidification vs. absorption. Only the solidified OMNI compounds offer proper retention to meet new regulations for secure land burial.

When you use SorbaSet S™ you are ready for secure landfill burial with NO FURTHER TREATMENT! If the waste contained no priority pollutants, in most cases it is acceptable as NONHAZARDOUS!

EASY TO USE

Simply dust on spill or allow pillow to absorb to capacity. SorbaSet S™ stops bubbling when neutral.

*LOW OUTGASSING!
*MILD CONTROLLED REACTION!
*NO FURTHER TREATMENT NECESSARY!

US PATENT #4517095 AND #4436645

30 lbs. of SorbaSet S™ neutralizes and solidifies: 5 qts. 40% Hydrochloric Acid; 3 qts. 40% Hydrofluoric Acid; 7 qts. 40% Nitric Acid; 5 qts. 78% Acetic Acid; 3 qts. 85% Phosphoric Acid. The final neutralization of SorbaSet S™ is the calcium salt of the acid in an inorganic cementatious matrix. As outlined above, except for Fluoride Acids, this is NO LONGER TOXIC, REACTIVE, OR CORROSIVE.
