Question: What is DISOL-ECO, and how does it differ from traditional oil spill dispersants?

Answer: DISOL-ECO is a revolutionary, eco-friendly, non-toxic nanodetector designed to break down hydrocarbons at the molecular level. Unlike traditional dispersants, which only break oil into smaller droplets and either send the contamination to the bottom or cause it to precipitate, DISOL-ECO initially degrades hydrocarbons upon contact.

Upon contact, DISOL-ECO breaks the covalent bond of the hydrocarbon molecule, polarizing it and making it miscible. When water is applied, the hydrolysis process occurs, separating the hydrogen and carbon molecules, effectively destroying the hydrocarbons.

As a result of this process, the residue is a sludge without physical, chemical, or organoleptic properties (it has no oily consistency to the touch). This process significantly reduces the environmental impact and prevents hydrocarbons from persisting in the environment.

Question: How does DISOL-ECO compare bioremediation techniques in oil spill cleanup?

Answer: While bioremediation relies on naturally occurring or introduced microorganisms to degrade hydrocarbons, DISOL-ECO offers a faster and more controlled approach by chemically breaking down hydrocarbons at the molecular level. This allows for a quicker, more efficient remediation. Additionally, by breaking down hydrocarbons into simpler byproducts, DISOL-ECO aids in the natural bioremediation process, allowing for a two-stage remediation (chemical and biological).

Advantages of DISOL-ECO VS. Bioremediation:

- More immediate solution

- Less reliance on environmental conditions

- Dual remediation (chemical and biological)

- Efficiency and speed in hydrocarbon degradation

Question: Has DISOL-ECO been tested according to the regulatory standards set by MPA , EPA, or other environmental agencies?

Answer: DISOL-ECO has undergone extensive laboratory testing to determine its efficacy in breaking down hydrocarbons. Unlike traditional dispersants, DISOL-ECO’s process has shown superior effectiveness in hydrocarbon degradation.

In collaboration with approved laboratories, we are working to validate DISOL-ECO’s unique capabilities, including:

- Biodegradability and non-toxicity tests.

- Residue and byproduct analysis.

- Efficacy assessments on different types of hydrocarbons.

- Scalability and applicability studies in various environments.

Our goal is to provide an innovative and effective solution for hydrocarbon spill remediation, minimizing environmental impact while ensuring safety and sustainability.

Question: How does DISOL-ECO function on a molecular level to clean up oil spills?

Answer: DISOL-ECO works through a chemical process that produces a catalytic reaction targeting the bonds between hydrogen and carbon atoms in hydrocarbon molecules.

By breaking these bonds, DISOL-ECO separates the hydrocarbon into its elemental components, turning the carbon into an inert substance and allowing the hydrogen to bond with oxygen in water, forming harmless non-toxic byproducts, such as carbon dioxide and water.

Question: Is DISOL-ECO safe for the environment, and what are its environmental impacts?

Answer: DISOL-ECO is environmentally friendly and has demonstrated non-toxicity in LC50 tests, even after biodegrading hydrocarbons at the molecular level.

This eliminates the persistence of these pollutants in the environment, reducing them below allowable limits.

The byproducts of this process are non-toxic, making DISOL-ECO a safer and more effective alternative to traditional oil spill cleanup methods, which only disperse hydrocarbons but do not eliminate them.

Question: What types of hydrocarbon spills can Disol-Eco effectively manage?

Answer: DISOL-ECO is effective against a wide range of hydrocarbon spills, including crude oil, refined petroleum products, and other hydrocarbon-based pollutants.

It can be used in various types of areas exposed to oil pollution including refineries, upstream and downstream equipment, oil storage facilities, vessels, transportation equipment, tank cars, and other places; and in different types of environments such as marine waters, shorelines, inland waterways and land-based spills, making it a versatile solution for different spill scenarios.

Question: Are there any limitations to using DISOL-ECO, such as in specific environmental conditions or types of hydrocarbons?

Answer: DISOL-ECO is highly effective in breaking down hydrocarbons, and its efficacy remains consistent across factors such as temperature, salinity, and the type of hydrocarbon involved.

We recommend performing a site-specific assessment to determine the optimal application of DISOL-ECO for different spill scenarios.

Question: How is DISOL-ECO applied during an oil spill cleanup operation?

Answer: DISOL-ECO can be applied using various methods, including spraying, injection, or manual application, depending on the spill’s location and scale.

The product works best when evenly distributed over the affected area, allowing it to penetrate and break down the hydrocarbons effectively.

Question: How long does it take for DISOL-ECO to break down hydrocarbons after application?

Answer: The reaction time for DISOL-ECO varies depending on the concentration of hydrocarbons, environmental conditions, and the method of application. However, DISOL-ECO begins breaking down hydrocarbons immediately upon contact, with significant constant degradation occurring within minutes to hours to days.

Question: What byproducts are produced when DISOL-ECO breaks down hydrocarbons?

Answer: The primary byproducts of DISOL-ECO's hydrocarbon breakdown are water (H₂O) and carbonates, both of which are non-toxic and naturally occurring in the environment. This makes DISOL-ECO a cleaner alternative to traditional oil spill dispersants.

Question: What are the storage and handling requirements for DISOL-ECO?

Answer: DISOL-ECO should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition.

It is packaged in standard containers that comply with international safety standards for chemical storage.

Proper handling procedures, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), should be followed during application.

Question: Is Disol-Eco safe for marine life and ecosystems?

Answer: Yes, DISOL-ECO is designed to be safe for marine life.

By breaking down hydrocarbons at the molecular level, it reduces the toxic impact of oil spills on marine organisms.

Unlike dispersants, which can spread toxic hydrocarbons throughout the water column, DISOL-ECO neutralizes them, minimizing harm to aquatic life.

Question: What are the economic benefits of using DISOL-ECO over traditional oil spill cleanup methods?

Answer: DISOL-ECO’s ability to rapidly and effectively break down hydrocarbons reduces the time and labor required for oil spill cleanup, resulting in significant cost savings.

Additionally, its environmental benefits can help avoid the long-term and high costs associated with residual waste disposal, ecological damage and regulatory fines.

Question: What is the shelf life of DISOL-ECO?

Answer: The recommended shelf life of DISOL-ECO is 24 months. However, if stored in a regulated environment, away from sunlight and high temperatures, it can last much longer.

Question: Does DISOL-ECO impact air quality during its application or after use?

Answer: DISOL-ECO’s application does not produce harmful airborne pollutants. The breakdown process results in the release of water and carbon dioxide, both of which are harmless in the context of air quality.

This makes DISOL-ECO a safe option for use in populated or environmentally sensitive areas.
