Oil may be removed by:

  • Absorbents which preferentially absorb oil without getting (water) wet.
  • Coagulants which clot the oil into an easier removed gel
  • Cryogenic booms which freeze the oil on a metal surface for removal
  • Oleophilic tubing systems which draw oil to a removal system
  • Booms
  • Insitu incineration
