Viscous Snares/Pom-Poms

• 1/2lb each made from Oleophilic Fibers that attract oil but reject water. 
• 25/Bag with a bag weighing 15lbs
• For every 1 lb of Viscous Snares, 25 lbs of crude oil can be absorbed at 70 degrees Fahrenheit (lower temperatures will increase recovery rate.

Arctic and Cold-Weather Spill Response

• ACME Viscous Snares are ideal for oil spill recovery in sub-freezing environments where traditional recovery methods struggle. 

Remote or Hard-to-Reach Spill Locations

• Because they require minimal equipment for deployment and retrieval, these snares are perfect for oil spills in marshes, wetlands, or shallow waters where boom, trucks, and skimmers cannot operate efficiently or be deployed easily.

Small-Scale or Localized Spills

• For pipeline leaks, tank overflows, or industrial accidents involving heavy crude or bunker oil, Viscous Snares provide a quick, low-cost solution that can be deployed by on-site personnel without specialized training.

Emergency Spill Kits

• Their compact size and reusability make them an excellent addition to spill response trailers, vessels, or spill kits, ensuring teams can act immediately to contain and recover oil before it spreads.

5. Harbor, Dock, and Port Maintenance

• Viscous Snares are useful in routine cleanup efforts around busy marine terminals where residual heavy oil from ships or machinery may collect. They allow for ongoing environmental protection without expensive equipment.

Effective in Harsh Conditions:

• Performs well in recovering heavy, viscous, and weathered crude, even in sub-freezing temperatures where traditional methods often fail.

Reusable and Sustainable:

• Can be cleaned and redeployed multiple times, reducing waste and long-term expenses.

Easy Deployment and Retrieval:

• No specialized equipment is needed to deploy or retrieve.

Lightweight and Durable:

• Built to be both rugged and easy to handle, ensuring reliability and ease of use across a variety of conditions.

Versatile Applications:

• Suitable for remote locations, cold climates, small-scale spills, and as part of spill kits

Low-Cost, High-Impact:

• Provides a cost-effective alternative to complex mechanical recovery systems, especially when dealing with dense or weathered oils.
