LiquiTarp
Surface Sealant/Oxidation Control
Surface Sealant/Oxidation Control
LiquiTarp is not only a powerful sealant used to control dust emissions from storage piles of coal, the water insoluble crust that is formed on the surface also helps the pile shed water and reduce oxygen intake. Both of these additional performance attributes help slow down the oxidation process which leads to self-heating and the potential of spontaneous combustion. LiquiTarp helps customers avoid hot spots and smokers while reducing BTU loss of coal in a long term storage scenario. In many cases, these benefits offer a significant ROI from the application.

Environmental
Surface Sealants are extremely effective at controlling dust emissions from storage piles AND reduce the likelihood hot spots and smokers.
Compliance
Facilities in close proximity to residential areas must adhere to strict air quality requirements and dust/off gassing from storage piles of coal can result in non-compliance.
Asset Protection
Spontaneous combustion can lead to fires that put critical equipment, assets and coal inventory in jeopardy.
Safety
Dealing with hotspots and potential fires can create challenging and unsafe working conditions.
Cost of Operation
Sponcom events can be costly to address and often lead to unscheduled downtime. Pile sealants are often a cost effective way to avoid the expense of reacting to the issue.
