Oil Booms And Skimmers For The Removal Of Oily Discharge

Dawg® Oil Booms skim oil from streams, settling ponds, and other waterways that pose a danger of hydrocarbon discharge into these sensitive environmental areas. Keeping our waterways clean of petroleum based fluids and other contaminants is of the utmost priorities and Absorbent Booms do a wonderful job. Here, you'll find many types of oil spill absorbents and oil skimmers such as our sorbent booms (that collect oily discharge from water ways), oil sweeps (drawn over waters surface absorbing broad sheens), oil skimmers in the form of sump socks and pillows and oil containment booms that round up petroleum based spills.
