Selection Criteria and Laboratory Evaluation of Oil Spill Sorbents - Update IV


Sixteen commercially available oil spill sorbents, both organic and synthetic, were tested with three different petroleum products and two hydrocarbon solvents. The sorbents were evaluated for initial and maximum capacities, water pickup, and reusability. Combined with practical field experience, this study serves as a useful guide to sorbent selection for given spill conditions.
