Sorbweb™Plus – Secondary Oil Containment
SorbWeb™Plus is an engineered multi-layer passive secondary containment system using various geosynthetics to contain hydrocarbons that may be spilled.
At the heart of system is a geosynthetic, known as a “Smart Fabric”. This “Smart Fabric” consists of two designed geotextiles interlocked with co-polymer to form a continuous mat.
When the system is not subjected to hydrocarbons it will allow water to move freely through its “Smart Barrier” and pass through without accumulating. However, when hydrocarbons come in contact with the “Smart Fabric” the co-polymer will congeal and seal, preventing hydrocarbons from escaping the containment area.
