The ECONAD Sorbent Sprayer is a portable knapsack unit designed for fast and controlled application of ECONAD biosorbents onto water and solid surfaces contaminated with oil and petroleum products.
The system helps mechanise sorbent application during oil spill response operations, allowing the operator to distribute absorbent material more quickly and evenly over the contaminated area.
Efficient Sorbent Application
Manual distribution of loose sorbent can be time-consuming, particularly when treating larger contaminated areas.
The ECONAD Sorbent Sprayer uses an air-flow system to distribute biosorbent through a spray pipe, allowing the operator to cover the affected surface efficiently and control the amount of material being applied.
This makes it suitable for both emergency spill response and planned cleanup operations.
The ECONAD Sorbent Sprayer can be used for:
- Emergency oil spill response
- Application of biosorbents on water
- Treatment of oil-contaminated soil
- Industrial spill cleanup
- Ports and terminals
- Refineries and oil storage facilities
- Workshops and production sites
- Shoreline cleanup
- Treatment of contaminated concrete and asphalt surfaces
The sprayer is designed to be carried by the operator as a backpack, providing good mobility during cleanup operations.
This configuration allows the operator to move freely around contaminated areas and reach locations where larger spreading equipment may be difficult to use.
The compact design also simplifies transportation and storage.
A large-capacity sorbent and fuel tank allows the unit to operate for extended periods without frequent refilling.
This helps improve productivity during field operations and reduces interruptions when treating larger contaminated areas.
The operator can regulate the flow of biosorbent according to the type and level of contamination.
This allows the amount of material applied to be adapted to:
- Thickness of the oil layer
- Type of contaminated surface
- Size of the affected area
- Required sorbent dosage
- Environmental and operating conditions
Controlled application helps reduce unnecessary sorbent consumption while maintaining effective coverage.
The main control elements are positioned for easy access during operation.
The ergonomic design is intended to provide:
- Simple adjustment of operating parameters
- Convenient handling
- Efficient sorbent distribution
- Reduced operator effort
- Improved mobility during field response
The standard ECONAD Sorbent Sprayer package includes:
- Knapsack sprayer
- Sorbent container
- Air suction and blowing unit
- Spray pipe
- Tube attachment
- Lid
- Screening mesh
- Rapid Sorbent Distribution: The air-flow system allows biosorbent to be applied significantly faster than manual spreading.
- Controlled Application: Adjustable flow helps optimise sorbent consumption according to the actual level of contamination.
- Portable Design: The knapsack configuration allows the operator to work efficiently in difficult-to-access areas.
- High Mobility: The unit can be used on shorelines, industrial sites, ports and other locations where stationary equipment is impractical.
- Extended Operating Time: Large sorbent and fuel capacity reduces the need for frequent refilling.
- Suitable for Water and Solid Surfaces: The system can be used for treating oil contamination on both water and land.
