We Make CCR Removal Easy
The use of superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) to dry, stabilize, and prevent leaching of liquids from wet and/or partially saturated coal fly ash, is a proven method that has been effectively utilized for CCR removal efforts.

Solidifying Coal Ash with Superabsorbent Polymers
ZapZorb Premium SAP is fast, cost-effective, and requires fewer resources. (US Patent US2024/0083814 A1)
Super Absorbant
SAPs feature an absorption capacity 10-40x greater than cementitious materials (such as Portland cement and lime)
Saves Costs & Time
The absorption capacity of SAPs translates to 10-40x less treatment reagent required to close the CCR ponds.
Better than Cement
The solidification speed of cementitious materials is hours to days to weeks, depending on contents of the ash, weather conditions, and if the cementitious materials are applied at the appropriate dosage (can be unpredictable)
Predictable Timeline
SAP dosage is typically very predictable with CCR material making coal ash removal cost effective

Coal combustion products, or residuals, are terms used interchangeably with fly ash and coal ash clean up. Coal Combustion Residuals are also abbreviated as CCR, such as CCR EPA rules. Zappa Stewart is a wholly owned brand of Chase Corporation. To learn more, visit www.chasecorp.com
