K-Sorb® Universal Fiber Absorbent- a highly absorbent cellulose product used to solidify liquid waste and stabilize sludge for transportation and disposal (including incineration). This specialty fiber is used to absorb free liquid and satisfy EPA test requirements (i.e., paint filter tests) for waste prior to disposal. K-Sorb® Fiber has superior absorbency and is less costly to dispose of than fly ash, diatomite, clay, corn cobs, rice hulls, and other bulking agents. K-Sorb® is available in 30 lb. and 40 lb. compressed bales.

Highly Absorbent K-Sorb® Fiber can absorb an amazing 13 times its weight in water, and over 8 times in oil. The following table shows how K-Sorb® Fiber’s superior absorption affects a 1,000 gallon project from inception to completion.

Disposable As Fuel K-Sorb® Universal Fiber has high heat content (adding 8,484 btu/lb.), can be liquefied, and qualifies under RCRA for cost-effective and permanent disposal as fuel through incineration. Inorganic absorbents such as clay and fly ash do not, making their disposal means more limited and costly than those of K-Sorb®.

Made from Recycled Fiber Not only does K-Sorb® reduce the amount of waste requiring disposal up to 44%, it is made from 98.5% recycled fiber that otherwise would go to a landfill.
