Disposal Options

Landfill Disposal

CorkSorb has been tested to the USEPA Leachate standards for landfill disposal.

Incineration

When saturated, the special CorkSorb granules have high calorific power and burn to less than 3% ash. These elements makes it ideal to be incinerated.

Alternative Fuel Source

The BTU value of used CorkSorb special granules is very high.

Biodegradation

CorkSorb special cork granules are biologically stable and free of harmful micro-organisms. When they are disposed of, they provide the environment needed for the development of bio-degrading organisms that can oxidize the absorbed hydrocarbons faster than the biodegradation of the special cork granules themselves.
