ISW Products for Environment Care
While Steel Wool is best known for cleaning pots and pans, it is also widely used in keeping our environment clean from industrial wastes and byproducts and in many other industries such as: mining, photo development, water treatment plants, petrochemical, and pharmaceuticals. Steel Wool, Stainless Steel Wool and Knitted Wire Mesh play an important role in preventing pollutants from contaminating the air and soil by separating contaminants, oils, toxins and heavy metals from emissions and wastewaters. Stainless steel wool blankets can also be used to prevent soil erosion on riverbanks caused by rodents.
Demister Pads
Demister Pads are widely used for separating and removing oil mist, toxic and poisonous gas from industrial processes.
Steel Wool or Wire Mesh is widely used as a cathode in an electrowinning process to remove heavy metals and contaminants from waste streams or mining slurries.
Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Texsteel Blankets of steel wool can be used to
remove dissolved minerals (such as phosphorous, lead, chromium, copper and arsenic) from stormwater runoff near industrial processes.
Pestplug
Stainless Steel Wool barrier fabric can be used to prevent rodents from burrowing and creating tunnels that are destructive to landscapes, riverbanks, parks, resorts and flower beds.
