Novachem OSR Degreasor

NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor is a liquid compound developed to efficiently emulsify and disperse oil spills from all surfaces. NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor is neutral containing neither acid nor alkali, non-explosive, non-corrosive, low toxic, and non-injurious to personnel.
NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor converts the messiest oil spills into a white milky mixture when agitated with water. This milky mixture is then dispersed, thereby completely removing the oil.

Usage :

NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor is effective over a broad range of oil spill conditions including:
* Floating oil on harbours, coastal water, and inland waterways.
* Oil spills on ship decks, docks, piers, beaches, dock support structures and land.

Application :

NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor is ready for application directly from the barrel and can be applied by pressure spray, ejector nozzle jet, mopping or brushing on to oily surfaces.

Spraying: For oil spills on water, decks, docks, and beaches the most economical results are obtained by the following procedure:
(1) Thoroughly wet the oil by spraying NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor through a pressure spray device. Keep the spray moving in a progressive pattern so as to avoid wasting the product.
(2) Allow the NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor to combine with the oil for 15 to 30 minutes.
(3) Then emulsify the mixture by agitating it with a fire jet spray of salt or fresh cold water. Ejector nozzle jet: For large oil spills which must be dealt with quickly, it is advisable to use an ejector nozzle attached to a fire hose. The ejector nozzle draws the NOVACHEM OSR into the jet stream which is then directed at the oil spill in a progressive pattern. The jet ensures agitation.

Mopping & Brushing: Pour NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor on the oil spill and mix thoroughly with a mop, broom, or brush. Then add salt or fresh water and continue mixing. When the oil is completely emulsified, rinse with water. Also, for removing accumulations of oil from pilings and dock support structures scrubbing with a large stiff brush may be necessary after first trying the spray method.

Dosage :

NOVACHEM OSR Degreasor is designed to clean from 8 to 12 times its own volume of heavy petroleum oil.
