BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 1)

BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 1)

BS7959 is the British Standard, which contains 3 parts for spill control products: absorbency, oil only sorbents, and colour coding for spill.

BS 7959-1:2004:

Part 1: Determination of Sorbency

This tests the absorbency rate for a variety of different sorbents i.e. pads, socks, pillows etc. using diesel fuel, hydraulic oil, motor oil, xylene, deionized water. The absorbency is measured in litres of liquid absorbed per Kg. After 30 seconds if the sorbent has retained the liquid it passes the standard.

BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 2)

BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 2)

BS 7959-2:2000:

Part 2: Determination of water repellency or buoyancy for hydrophobic (oil sorbent) materials

This test is performed in the same manner as part 1, however it only measures the absorbency for oil only sorbents.

BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 3)

BS 7959 - For Spill Materials Used For The Control Of Liquid Spillages (Part 3)

BS 7959-3:2007:

Part 3: Colour coding of sorbent materials

All sorbents are categorised using different colours according to their industrial application: Oil Only sorbents are white or blue and are used with oils, hydrocarbons and liquids which do not mix with or absorb water. Maintenance sorbents are grey and are used with most liquids that do not degrade the sorbent. Chemical sorbents are yellow and are used with most aggressive chemical liquids.
