FESI-BOND® BLAST are a group of stabilizers designed to convert Pb to a
non-hazardous character in the paint-media mix upon media blasting.
FESI-BOND® PAINTS are a group
of latex-based paints designed to convert Pb-bearing materials
such as leaded paint to a non-hazardous waste character upon
contact.
The FESI-BOND® PAINT Stabilization Process is simple and
unregulated. FESI-BOND® PAINT contains patented chemicals, which
convert lead bearing material on a molecular level to a non-hazardous
characteristic as tested under TCLP. FESI-BOND® PAINT is applied
prior to management of materials as a solid waste under RCRA regulations,
and thus prior to TCLP testing requirements.
The standard FESI-BOND® PAINT stabilization method involves a
single-pass roller or spray application of FESI-BOND® PAINT onto the
lead bearing material surface. The Pb TCLP stabilization is immediate
upon surface contact, thus requires no chemical curing or set-up time
beyond standard latex drying time.
FESI-BOND® PAINT stabilized materials can be managed as non-hazardous
during and after demolition. The handling and disposal costs savings can
exceed $200.00 per US ton with use of this FESI-BOND® technology.
The FESI-BOND® BLAST Stabilization Process is also simple and
unregulated. FESI-BOND® BLAST Media contains patented chemicals,
which convert lead bearing material on a molecular level to a non-hazardous
characteristic as tested under TCLP. FESI-BOND® BLAST media is applied
prior to management of materials as solid waste under RCRA regulations, and
thus prior to TCLP testing requirements.
FESI holds the exclusive US patent and rights to the
stabilization of lead bearing materials prior to their generation as
a waste material, including materials such as lead painted wood, concrete,
steel, etc. The FESI US patents 5,860,908, 5,846,178, 5,722,928, 5,536,899,
and numerous patents-pending provide technology rights protection to
contractors and vendors using FESI-BOND® PAINT, and FESI-BOND® BLAST.
