E36 Liquid Runway Deicer
E36 LIQUID RUNWAY DEICER – SAFE RUNWAYS AND A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT
BENEFITS:
- Safe for runways: meets FAA-approved specifications
- Safe for the environment: non-persistent, biodegradable, low BOD
- Fast: runways are available sooner
- Staying Power: works longer, requiring fewer applications
- Easy to apply: applied with existing equipment
PERFORMANCE:
- Excellent anti-icing characteristics
- Active at low temperatures (-25o F and below)
- Less slippery than glycol-based products
APPLICATION:
- Deicing – 1 gallon/1000 ft (50 g/m) near 32o F (0o C) on thin ice………3 gallons/1000 ft (150 g/m) below 10o F (-12o C) on 1 inch ice
- Re-apply when new accumulation shows first tendency to bond
- Plow often to reduce fluid dilution
- Prewetting – apply at spreader outlet at a rate of 1.25 gallons per 100 lbs (130g/kg) of solid deicer
ENVIRONMENT:
- Lower BOD
- Biodegrades at low temperatures
- Does not contain urea
- Low toxicity to fish, mammals and vegetation
HANDLING:
- Polyethylene containers are preferred, otherwise use carbon, low alloy or stainless steel containers
- Containers must be clean and free of rust, surface deposits and residues
- E36 should not be stored or plumbed through systems that use galvanized, zinc or brass components.
