The Best Oil Spill Clean-Up Solution? [DEMO VIDEO]
Quote:
Akron, Ohio - A certain company?s manufacturing process generates a fair amount of byproduct ? a highly absorbent, cross-linked foam material. According to Jim, this stuff is completely non-toxic and non-hazardous.
But more to the point ? e.g. The Gulf ? it absorbs 20 times its weight in oil. It also absorbs water, of course, but that water is displaced as the material comes into contact with oil. And the absorbed oil can be used as fuel or possibly extricated and reused.
So why am I turning into a believer? I?ll blame this youtube video that Jim made with his son, Teddy. Granted, it?s not exactly Shamwow-quality, but I think it gets the point across fairly well?
