- Fine particle removal from wastewater
- Filters oils and sediment at storm drain entry sights
- Ideal as a superior silt fence fabric
- Provides BMP controls
- Removes petroleum contaminates and sheen in sumps
- Retrofitting of oil and water separators to bring them into compliance with current regulations
- X-TEX B12 filters hydrocarbons and particulates from wastewater
- A pretreatment for reclaiming wastewater
- A low-cost pretreatment for membrane filtration
- Fine sheen removal
- Used in cartridges for oil removal
- Roadbed liner for asphalt separation from the subsoil
- Landfill protective refuse liner for long-term absorption of oils
- Garbage truck bed liner to prevent leakage of oils on roadways
- Oil spills, including every type of oil and viscosity
- Shoreline protection in the event of an oil spill
- Booms for containing oil spills and for clean up
- Drilling platforms; used in cartridges for filtering “process water” before it is discharged into the ocean satisfying compliance of international laws
- De-oiling of water in ship ballast tanks
- Filtering oil from bilge water
- Dock curtains of X-TEX B12 for hydrocarbon cleanup
- Hydrocarbon (oil) sheen elimination
- X-TEX B12 is used by the US Navy, the US Coast Guard, and the US Air Force for maintenance, oil spills, and oil leaking from land-based storage facilities.
- US Army Corps of Engineers uses X-TEX B12 as a final polish for discharge water from oil-water separators before entering Puget Sound of Washington state.
- Wrapping oil transmitting pipelines
- Oil spills on waterways and oceans
- Protection around tanks and storage areas
- Protection when transferring and transporting oil products
- Filtering refinery wastewater
- Filtering drilling platform process water
- Electrical substation groundwater protection in case of a transformer oil spill
- Turbines, employed at dams for power generation, leak oil. X-TEX B12 is used to bring discharge water into compliance if ‘parts per million’ exceed regulations
- Filtering oils in floor drain grease traps
- Filtering oils from mop water before disposal
- Absorbing rooftop oils around grill exhaust fans and vents
- Filtering oils from downspout discharge water
- End of the pipe solution for sewer water discharge (especially on beaches)
- Stormwater filtration using basin inserts made from X-TEX B12
- Surface water infiltration protection
- Superior erosion control
- Provides a final polish and sheen removal for surface water runoff
- Greatly improves the performance of oil-water separators
Transportation
Vehicle wash facilities; for trucks, buses, and heavy equipment
Railroad; used for oil absorption between tracks and under engines to catch dripping oil
Airports; in ‘zipper drains’. X-TEX B12 absorbs oil runoff from the tarmac. It is also used in maintenance hangers and for oil spills.
Fire Departments; used for Hazmat response with many other applications in the department
