Oil Absorbents - Zeolite granules can be used as oil absorbents.  Since the granules are white, they can be easily seen when used to make dikes, barriers, or floor coverage around machinery and on shop floors. A safety Absorbent used by mechanics and machine shops for years. Available in bags or buckets at many different grade levels.
Spill Kits - Kits contain the essential components required to clean up a hazardous spill. Kits vary in size as well as contents. Polyethylene drum can be used for chemical and water resistant type of spills. These drums can be stored outside. Drums can be UN-specified for Shipping /disposing of used sorbent. Kits consist of  socks, booms, labels and instruction manual.
Sorbents are also available in a loose form, which can actually be sprinkled on spill. Primary loose sorbent is usually made from cellulose, peat moss, granular mineral, corncob or asimil type product. Oil only loose sorbents are great for picking up hydrocarbons. Universal sorbents are great for picking up antifreeze. It is best to determine the kinds of liquids you are using, so you can fit the loose sorbent to the type of spill. These are very useful in high maintenance areas.
Terminology Many different types of sorbants are available. The term "absorbent" has been used to described most of these products. However, products are available as  absorbents and adsorbent. Sorbent: material used to recover oil and oil-like liquids through the mechanism of absorption or adsorption or both.
Pillows - Pillows, similar to pads, are also designed to absorb spills. These may contain peat moss, cellulose, polypropylene or other absorbent type materials. They are usually thicker than pads, thus usually capable of absorbing more liquids.
Socks - Universal, oil aggressive, cellulose, com cob, peat moss or polypropylene socks are available in various sizes, usually 3"x4'. Other sizes are often used depending on the applications. They work very well on containing spills around, machinery, or to quickly contain an aggressively moving spill. In addition, socks are also available in oil only forms as well when you don’t want to absorb water. This is an excellent choice for outdoor use, where rain or running water might over saturate a sock.
Booms - Booms are very similar to socks, but are usually much larger. They are mostly used in open water clean-up applications, such as oceans, lakes and rivers. They contain stringing apparatus for use behind a boat. Booms are almost always oil only. A usual size and length is 8" x 10'. If they are any longer, they become almost impossible to remove from the water easily.
