Where do booms and inserts go?

Booms float around slips and fueling docks; inserts treat runoff at deck and parking drains.

Is captured oil safe to dispose of?

Yes. Hydrocarbons are locked into a stable, non-leaching solid for straightforward disposal.

Does it help with harbor discharge permits?

By capturing sheen and hydrocarbons at the source, it supports harbor water-quality and discharge compliance requirements.

Marinas & Boatyards

Keep fuel sheen and dock runoff out of your harbor.

Oil-loving Smart Sponge® media in booms and inserts captures fuel, oil sheen, and dock runoff around slips and drains — protecting harbor water quality and your operating permits.

The Challenge

Fuel, sheen, and runoff around every slip

Marinas, ports, and harbor operators manage fueling stations, bilge discharge, and stormwater that carry oil sheen and hydrocarbons straight into sensitive harbor waters — under the watch of environmental regulators.

Oil & fuel sheen

Hydrocarbons absorbed on contact without clogging.

Dock & deck runoff

Stormwater from paved dock areas treated at the drain.

Heavy metals

Dissolved metals from hull and equipment runoff captured.

Floating debris

Contained before it spreads across the basin.

The Solution

Booms and inserts positioned around slips and drains

Smart Sponge® booms float around fueling docks and slips to capture sheen the moment it appears, while inserts treat runoff at deck drains. The media is hydrophobic and oil-loving — it binds hydrocarbons into a stable solid and keeps working without wringing out.
