EMULSIFIE SOPEP, Ship Oil Pollution Emergency Plan SOPEP
Oil spills at sea, harbours, beaches, or on land. Can also be used in industries. Bio-degradable Emulsifier with excellent efficiency and low toxicity with superior penetration. This product is specially designed for complete emulsification of oil by which subsequent dispersion takes place. APPLICATION :Oil spills at sea, harbours, beaches, or on land. Can also be used in industries.
Emulsifier SOPEP is a high-performance oil spill emulsifying agent specially formulated to disperse hydrocarbons into fine emulsions, enabling easy removal or biodegradation. It rapidly penetrates oil films and breaks them into microscopic droplets that mix with water and disperse effectively.
The product is widely used for cleaning oil spills on ships, docks, harbors, offshore platforms, beaches, and industrial surfaces. It is effective against a wide range of petroleum products including crude oil, diesel, fuel oil, lubricants, and kerosene.
The formulation typically consists of biodegradable surfactants, emulsifying agents, and low-toxicity solvents designed to disperse oil while minimizing environmental impact.
Biodegradable and having low toxicity . Self –life 5 YEARS( from mfr. date ) .
HIGH – Emulsification rate Converts hydrocarbons particle in to very fine emulsions.Ready to use product. Suitable for Crude / Bitumen / Residual / Diesel / Kerosene, White spirit & Lube oils etc .Effective on oil spills at platefoprm , during loading or discharging of cargo or bunkers .For cleaning of spills on Deck, Ships side, Piers, Wharfs, etc. where allowed .
