Unrivalled Innovation Improving standards and reducing disruption

Capture Green focuses on developing solutions to resolve real problems facedby customers. We work closely with our customers to create solutions usinginnovative techniques developed through our industry experience andknowledge. Even if you can’t see a solution to your particular problem in thisbrochure or within our product range, we can still help you.

Green Rhino® is the brand name we’ve given to our own range of innovative solutions that solvepollution control challenges. Many Green Rhino® products incorporate a unique polymertechnology, offering a high-tech yet cost-effective solution to pollution prevention. The productscontain special polymers which transform hydrocarbons such as oil, diesel and petrol into arubber-like solid within minutes, preventing the release of contaminated water or hazardous fluidinto the environment.

What makes Green Rhino® different?Alternative products work simply by absorbing hydrocarbons, much like a sponge, but thepolymer technology in Green Rhino® products is far more advanced. Potentially hazardous andpolluting hydrocarbons are retained and ‘locked in’ to the polymer, completely eliminating therisk of pollution entering the environment. The solid mass can be safely handled and disposed ofin standard hazardous waste bins, significantly reducing overallhazardous waste costs.

Potentially hazardous and pollutinghydrocarbons are retained and ‘locked in’.

Success StoriesDriving up standards while overcoming challenges

We work closely with our customers, which ensures we can always deliverthe right solution to meet their requirements first time. We manufactureall our products in-house at our facility in Suffolk so we can react quicklyto even the most urgent client needs, helping to reduce their project costs.

Our solutions have been implemented worldwide, and Green Rhino products in particular areused across many sectors including utilities, construction, rail, highways, marine andmanufacturing. Here are some organisations that rely on Green Rhino products to eradicate thethreat of pollution.

• Anglian Water• Balfour Beatty• UK Power Networks• Clancy Docwra• Carillion• Crossrail• Morrison Utility Services• Skanska

We are making an impact. See us mentioned in the report!“We are always seeking to find innovative ways to protect the environment against anypollution, such as the development of the Green Rhino filter bag in partnership with CaptureGreen. We are the first utility to adopt the filtering of any water pumped from excavations asstandard practice.”

“Green Rhino’ technology is being deployed by UK PowerNetworks on street works to benefit the company, ourcustomers, and the environment. Before the introduction ofGreen Rhino it was accepted practice to pump water out ofa street-works hole and discharge to a grass verge, ifavailable, or down the street if not. If the water was heavilycontaminated with oil and/or sediment, the company wouldhave to arrange for a tanker to pump out the water andtake it off site for disposal at a cost of approximately£1,000.”

Pollution controlEnviroPad

The new Green Rhino EnviroPad is a revolutionary product. It turnshazardous liquids into rubber. It can be used in place of traditional driptrays or absorbent drip trays such as plant nappies or competitor site mats.

Unlike these other products, the Green Rhino EnviroPad does not simply absorb and leach whensaturated. It bonds the oil, immobilising it permanently and preventing it from leakinghydrocarbons into the environment. It’s also smaller, lighter and easier to use.

The Green Rhino EnviroPad incorporates a smart membrane with unique polymer technologycontained within. This captures and retains spills and drips from workplace activities such aspumps, generators, chain saws, cut-off saws and other oil or petrol-filled construction machinery.Other products on the market simply absorb oil like a sponge but the EnviroPad retains and‘locks in’ hydrocarbons into the polymer, significantly reducing the risk of pollution entering theenvironment. Oil and other hydrocarbons are immobilised into a non-leaching, dry, rubber-likemass, ensuring that hazardous fluids are removed and safely contained.

• Prevents the leakage of oil, diesel and petrol at a fraction of the cost of alternative products• Instantly removes pollutants to non-detectable levels using unique polymer technology• Once completely solidified, the EnviroPad can simply be disposed of into standard hazardous

waste bins• Lightweight and can be easily rolled and stored away• Large items of plant can be easily wheeled or placed onto the EnviroPad• Suitable for both outdoor and indoor usage• User friendly• No reaction with water• Manufactured in the UK• Three sizes available

Pollution control

The EnviroPad is a “great product, far more effective than any otheralternatives” and it was “really well received by all site team andsenior staff… In a class of its own for mobility, durability andperformance.”

Gary O’Brien, ATC Systems Environment Manager, Crossrail

EnviroPad is being used atConnaught Tunnel, aCrossrail Contract, - one of the biggestprojects in the UK.

The total funding envelope available todeliver Crossrail is £14.8bn.The Crossrail route will pass through 38stations and run more than 100km fromMaidenhead and Heathrow in the west,through new twin-bore 21 km (13 miles)tunnels below central London to Shenfieldand Abbey Wood in the east.

When Crossrail opens it will increaseLondon's rail-based transport networkcapacity by 10%, supporting regenerationand cutting journey times across the city.Crossrail services are due to commencethrough central London in 2018. Crossrailis being delivered by Crossrail Limited(CRL). CRL is a wholly owned subsidiary ofTransport for London. Crossrail is jointlysponsored by the Department forTransport and Transport for London.

The Technology Behind theEnviropad

The EnviroPad uses sophisticated polymertechnology to retain hydrocarbons. Itcomprises a membrane made up of two layersof a geo-textile with C.I.Agent® polymersembedded between the layers. This hybridcreates a filtration fabric that encapsulateshydrocarbons and forces them to unsaturatedareas of the fabric. This fabric allows water topass through it, yet it solidifies hydrocarbonsalmost instantly upon contact.

Pollution controlDewatering Pack

The Green Rhino Dewatering Pack offers a swift, cost-effective solution forall pumping activities. It’s the proven solution for oil contaminatedexcavations, road gullies, site works, inspection chambers, lift shafts,bilges, tanks and many more operations.

The dewatering pack can be used where high volumes of contaminated water are present, butwith relatively low volumes of oil contamination. It applies state-of-the-art filtration technology toremove suspended solids, oil deposits and light sheen from pumping and other water dischargeoperations, and can be used in place of costly vacuum lorries (tankering services), which taketime, create disruption, cause delays and have a big carbon footprint.

Simply place the polymer pillows on the surface of contaminated water and within a few minutes each pillow will remove contaminants and render them into an inert, rubber-like solid. The pillows can be safely removed by hand and the water can then be pumped through the Green Rhino® Oil and Sediment Filter, allowing it to be safely pumped into the environment.

• Polymer pillows can retain and solidify several litres of oil, diesel, petrol, transformer fluid and other hydrocarbons within minutes

• All contents contained within an easily transportable container

• No site closures, no waiting for vacuum tankers to arrive, no engine

emissions

• Designed to allow teams working in the field to immediately resolve contamination problems without having to shut down and wait for third party vacuum trucks to arrive

• Dramatically reduces overall cost of hazardous waste disposal

• Reduces carbon footprint significantly by removing the need for unnecessary vacuum tanking journeys

Pollution controlSpill containment with filtration

Spill containment systems are a common sight. But if you look closely,you’ll see how ours are different. We improve these systems by adding ourlow flow hydrocarbon filters, which minimise maintenance costs andmitigate the risk of environmental incidents.

These bunds typically fill up with rain water and risk overflowing, unless they are properly caredfor. When maintained properly, contaminated water must be removed and disposed of, withadditional costs for tanker call out and disposal.

Our spill containment solutions with low flow filters make it very easy to mitigate the risk of anenvironmental incident with a minimal need for maintenance and, importantly, cost. Oursolutions offer big cost savings when compared to the expense of multiple tankering pump outs.That’s because our filters:• Prevent bunds or tanks from overflowing• Prevent contaminants from entering the environment• Automatically shut off in the event of a catastrophic breach• Flow at three litres per minute• Solidify between one and three litres depending on the system• Come in 1, 2,and 3 litre systems• Are easy to fit with tank connectors

Pollution controlDewatering Filtration Systems

Our filtration systems are designed for use when pumping anddewatering trenches. They’re easy to use on-site, cost-effective and offerexceptional return on investment. The filtration systems are suitable foruse with all standard mobile water pumps and easily connected withsimple reusable cable ties.

They are used on a daily basis by many of the UK’s utility contractors to remove contaminantsthat could otherwise pollute navigable water or drainage systems. Our filtration systems helporganisations avoid possible prosecutions, financial penalties and significantly eliminate cost anddown time.

Low Flow Hydrocarbon Filter Our Low Flow Hydrocarbon Filter removes contaminants from water thatcollects in tanks and bunds. It can be retrofitted to existing spill containmentproducts to prevent the buildup of rain water. It allows rainwater to pass throughunimpeded but prevents oil contamination and sediment from polluting the environment.The filter:• Automatically shuts off in the event of a catastrophic breach• Flows at three litres per minute• Solidifies between one and three litres depending on the system• Comes in 1, 2, and 3 litre systems• Is easy to fit with tank connectors
