The substrate is modified with quaternary ammonium compounds which attract and hold hydrocarbons. This active ingredient is capable of absorbing at least 2-3 times its own weight of petroleum hydrocarbon. The product is offered mixed with anthracite in a 70:30 ratio of anthracite to active ingredient. Thus, the capacity for oil ranges from 60-90 wt% of the total weight of the media.
