The Floc Log® and Silt Stop® lines of polymers are site-specific anionic-polyacrylamides. These products come in 3 different forms: a semi-hydrated log, a powder and an emulsion; they consist of over 60 different blends designed to be specific for the chemistry of each site's water and soil.
FlocLogs® are anionic (negatively charged) co-polymer blended blocks that provide a convenient method to introduce environmentally safe polymers into continuous or intermittent flows - such as ditches, inlets, storm drain systems and pump discharges. Each Floc Log® type is produced to work with specific soil and/or site water chemistries. Once introduced, Floc Log® polymers will:
● Bind and remove suspended soil and other fine particulates from the water column, allowing it to settle out and be removed at the client’s convenience
● Reduce the concentration of metals and other pollutants associated with the suspended soil particles
● Reduce nutrient levels in runoff water
● Improve water quality in industrial settling ponds or thickeners
Silt Stop® is a family of co-polymer blends, each formulated to work with specific soil and/or water chemistries. SiltStop® blends are available in powders and/or emulsions. The application of Silt Stop® to soil surfaces will:
● Reduce soil erosion
● Reduce or eliminate turbidity in runoff waters
● Increase water infiltration rate into the soil
● Decrease the volume of runoff water
● Improve vegetation establishment
● Minimizes dust from wind, traffic or other activity
● Aid in solidification of water saturated soil for transport or disposal
