Use the buttons to the left to spread
the word about this faster, cleaner,
revolutionary, organic way to
clean up oil spills.
Working together we can revolutionize oil spill
cleanup! Our A+ absorbent can stop oil from fouling
birds mammals and reptiles at sea, clean tidewaters
of oil US EPA approved, organic, and biodegradable.
This exciting environmentally friendly oil spill
cleanup material can be the ecofriendly solution to a
major disaster. Get excited and spread the word about
the revolution in petroleum spill clean up and
containment. This is your chance to make a difference
in really cleaning up the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill
from the Deepwater Horizon disaster, but takes YOU to
do it.
We have the ability to produce large quantities
of “A+ Absorbent” an organic, high
efficiency, fast acting oil absorbent. The A+
Absorbent is an organic reed sedge peat. The product
is from an aquatic environment where it is part of
the ecosystem of mammals, birds, and reptiles.
Once the absorbent takes on the oil it will not
give it up. When the absorbent has taken on all of
the oil, the oil cannot foul, birds, or fish, or
mammals, or reptiles, such as frogs etc crawling on
the used absorbent and will not be releasing oil into
the waters. The absorbent will pull oil from open
water, aquatic tideland areas, and land.
- IMPORTANT
- This may eliminate the ecologically
destructive effects of steaming of beaches and
tidewater areas.
- A+ is bio active providing a complete
bioremediation process so that if the absorbent
is not recovered, even if fully saturated, it
will allow native vegetation to grow through and
feed from the absorbent, while naturally
occurring microbes break down the oil to a plant
usable form of nutrient.
A+ can be sent in a number of sizes of
material, fines (sheen removal), coffee ground size,
or 1.5" x 1.5" by 2" to 4" pellet
size. There are designs for 2 foot by 2 foot pillows
and 4 foot x 4 foot mats. These designs have been
tested for use with positive results.
A+ when fully sorbed with oil has a surface
tension that tends to hold the material together.
Used A+ can be retrieved from water with a fine
pocketed mesh.
A+ can be used by persons experienced in
handling fine materials.
Application is limited only by your
imagination:
- fire bomber bulk
- shoveled
- blown (airborne fine materials can be hazardous
in confined spaces)
- bulk dump spreader
We have large reserves and can process them
quickly. We will have mobilization costs to produce
quickly, for this emergency, the large quantities you
need as soon as possible.
As a rule of thumb: 40,000 pounds of absorbent
will absorb 8,500 gallons of oil (under optimal
conditions.)
With your assistance I believe we can
consistently produce 60 to 120 ton per day of bulk
material to be shipped in 20 or 40 foot containers.
***(REVISED to 500 tons per day would absorb
approximately near 110,000 gallons per day) WRW

We have clean up experience from both:
- the 1989 Valdez oil spill in Alaska
- the 2001 285,000 gallon on land oil spill which
occurred near Livengood, Alaska.
A+ Absorbent meets the definition of a
“sorbent” as specified in Title 40 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), sections 300.5 and
300.915(g) of the National Contingency Plan (NCP). A+
Absorbent is a sorbent material and consists solely
of the materials listed in section 300.915(g) (1) of
the NCP.
