Roadway Accidents and Incidents.

Fire Departments, Hazardous Materials Response Teams, and Police Departments can benefit from the TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives and the Aqua N-Cap polymer for containing spills and eliminating the hazardous risks associated with vehicle accidents.

Aqua N-Cap:

Emergency Spill Response. Once a spill has occurred, the immediate objective is to recover any liquids possible, and ensure they do not contact surface waters. Our Aqua N-CapFuel encapsulated with Aqua N-Cap polymer will stop run-off in its tracks. Unlike clay and silica products, Aqua N-Cap poses no health or respiratory threat to workers. Aqua N-Cap polymer takes less product to absorb a spill than the major leading brand clay absorbent, which means less waste.

Water Sources. Our Aqua N-Cap polymer is also ideal for situations where fuel or oil is leaking into drainage culverts or into creeks/streams. Simply broadcast Aqua N-Cap onto the spill by hand or with a commercial insulation blower. Aqua N-Cap will not sink and does not absorb water.

Aqua N-Cap Polymer is listed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP), Subpart J Product Schedule (40 Code of Federal Regulations Part 300.900) and may be authorized for use by Federal On-Scene Coordinators and Regional Response Teams in accordance with 40 CFR Section 300.920.

TERRACAP 3000/4000:

Commercial hand and automatic spray equipment can be used to apply the TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives on most hazardous waste spills, including gasoline, diesel, transmission, or motor oil spills. Application will immediately encapsulate the leaking fuel and render it non-flammable. Rapid micro­encapsulation and solidification occurs once the TERRACAP additives are applied rendering the spill non-hazardous and immobile within seconds.


Soils and Aggregates. Our TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives provide environmentally friendly rapid resolution to hydrocarbon spills on soils and gravel. Commercial hand and automatic spray equipment can be used to apply the TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives on most hazardous waste spills, including gasoline, diesel, transmission, or motor oil spills. A patented microencapsulation process occurs once the TERRACAP additives are applied rendering the spill non-hazardous and immobile. With the proper use of the TERRACAP additives, excavation of soil is not required.

Marine Accidents and Spills.

Our Aqua N-Cap polymer is ideal for clean-up of oil/fuel Marine Emergency Response sheens or hazardous waste spills of any size from the surface of water. Aqua N-Cap is a white powdery substance that you sift over a spill, give it time to absorb the spill, then pick or net it up. Aqua N-Cap is safe for operators and environmentally friendly. It is especially effective for clean-up of spills around marine bilge areas, fueling depots, marinas, docks, and on open water.

Industrial and Manufacturing Accidents and Spills.

The TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives and Aqua N-Cap polymer can be used for hazardous waste spills within or outside of the industrial or manufacturing facility as part of an overall emergency contingency plan. The TERRACAP and Aqua N-Cap products provide a spill solution for a broad range of commonly

used chemicals used in and around industrial and manufacturing facilities. The TERRACAP 3000/4000 additives are superior to solid absorbent solutions such as clay (Fuller's Earth), silica, cellulose, corncobs, and polypropylene that require additional handling and add to the volume of hazardous materials. TERRACAP additives reduce the total amount of solid wastes and treat the hazards at the scene instead of just mopping it up, packaging it up, and passing on a risk for someone else to deal with. Unlike clay and silica products, the TERRACAP and Aqua N-Cap products pose no health or respiratory threat to workers.

Acid neutralization and clean-up.

TERRACAP AN additive is superior to traditional methods such as sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate which are relatively slow, generate significant heat, sometimes spatter violently, and tend to aerosolize the acid gas. In some cases with carbonates, the salts formed during neutralization can be extremely toxic. In addition, absorbed acids using dry powder carbonates may not be completely neutralized. When applied to a spill, TERRACAP AN additive reacts with the spilled acid and begins precipitating into a solid, neutralized residue within seconds after application.
