What is Sorbent used for?

Sorbents are a type of cleaning product that is able to absorb spills including:

  • Oil Based Sweeping Compound – is mainly used to keep dust down while you are sweeping and is designed for concrete surfaces.
  • Absorbent Clay – is very absorbent and can be used for multiple cleaning applications.

  • You want to dispose of the waste correctly.

How does a Sorbent work?

A sorbent can either use either absorption or adsorption.

  • Absorption - a spill is able to penetrate into the sorbent like a sponge.
  • Adsorption - draws in the spill but does not allow the liquid to penetrate it.
