Welcome to Smartgrow’s Sister Product; The OttiMat™
Watch OttiMat Work
The OttiMat is an innovative product that uses recycled human hair to repair and prevent the environmental damage caused by oil spills. Comprised of 99% recycled human hair and 1% Polypropylene Skrim, OttiMat adsorbs oil. The OttiMat avoids the use of toxic oil cleaners in our water sources by using hair, non-decomposing materials.
In the News
NASA Testing:
NASA conducted an experiment using OttiMat’s prototype bulk hair filter to treat a partially filled 55-gallon drum of oil-water mixture from an actual fuel oil spill. The contaminated oil-water mixture was rapidly poured through the human hair filter and drained into a clean 55-gallon drum. Approximately 300 pounds of oil-water mixture was poured through the prototype system. It took 13 minutes. When the water was tested after a single pass, only 17 parts of oil per million parts of water remained. The EPA standard for discharge is 15 parts of oil per million.
Reuse, Recycle:
One of the main benefits realized in the NASA experiment was that oil could also be recovered from the hair. Human hair does not "absorb" (or soak in) oil as does cloth, but rather it "adsorbs" (or holds on to) it. A product such as a polypropylene mat "absorbs" oil, and the oil bonds to the material, so much so that the oil cannot be extracted. But with the OttiMat the oil is "adsorbed", meaning that the oil is adhering to the surfaces of the hair. The mat can be wrung out for re-use 100 or more times. In fact, during an oil spill cleanup, up to 98% of the oil can be recovered. Each cubic foot collects 7.8 Gallon per 2 and half minute per use.
