Stability Research on the Effect of Oil Spill Dispersant I-Separation Char- acteristics of Oil Spill Dispersant
With the continuous research and development of the low-toxic and high-efficiency oil spill dispersants (OSDs), there are an increasing number of evaluation methods for the effect of the OSDs. Currently, the majority of the OSDs effect evaluation is related with the testing of the emulsification in the laboratory, while the stability researches on the OSDs effect are still few. In this paper, t...
متن کاملExperimental L-Band Airborne SAR for Oil Spill Response at Sea and in Coastal Waters
Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is frequently used during oil spill response efforts to identify oil slick extent, but suffers from the major disadvantages of potential long latency between when a spill occurs and when a satellite can image the site and an inability to continuously track the spill as it develops. We show using data acquired with the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle SAR (UAVS...
متن کاملDeep-sea bacteria enriched by oil and dispersant from the Deepwater Horizon spill.
The Deepwater Horizon oil spill resulted in a massive influx of hydrocarbons into the Gulf of Mexico (the Gulf). To better understand the fate of the oil, we enriched and isolated indigenous hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from deep, uncontaminated waters from the Gulf with oil (Macondo MC252) and dispersant used during the spill (COREXIT 9500). During 20 days of incubation at 5°C, CO(2) evolut...
متن کاملStability Research on the Effect of Oil Spill Dispersant II - Impact of Wave Intensity
The oil spill dispersant (OSD) play an important role to deal with the frequent oil spills in the marine environment, which can effectively reduce the interfacial tension between the oil and the seawater. However, there are many studies showing the stability of the OSD effect changes over time, and is related with the wave. In this paper, the results show the OSD will gradually move away from t...
متن کاملEvaluation of differential cytotoxic effects of the oil spill dispersant Corexit 9500.
AIMS The British Petroleum (BP) oil spill has raised several ecological and health concerns. As the first response, BP used a chemical dispersant, Corexit-9500, to disperse the crude oil in the Gulf of Mexico to limit shoreline contamination problems. Nevertheless, portions of this oil/Corexit mixture reached the shoreline and still remain in various Gulf shore environments. The use of Corexit ...
