PROPAT
Explanation:
É um material subproduto de reciclagem de automóveis


One of the proposed alternatives for the Claremont Channel is to amend contaminated dredged sediments with PROPAT® , a trademarked auto-shredder byproduct, to form a manufactured soil-like material for use as structural fill. The amended material would be used to cap and grade a portion of a nearby former industrial site, enabling construction of a golf course. PROPAT® , previously approved for landfill cover in several states and developed by Hugo Neu Schnitzer East, is the chemically stabilized nonmetallic part of shredded cars (i.e., foam from the seats, glass, etc.). This is the first use of PROPAT® as an amending agent for dredged sediments, and is based in part on experiments conducted with waste carpet fibers that produced promising results.
