That's fantastic! Now why in the World didn't our ding bats think of using something like that really. They used booms but they were only used like barriers not sucker uppers like this thing. Man!
Hey Great Idea. Im really stoked to see this is happening. I've done testes myself and have found the booms to be successful at absorbing the oil. However they should be tied together and attached to flotation devices to insure there success. They also seem to work better in calm water and even on shore. Def not to be pulled behind boats as they are still somewhat fragile. Unless maybe in burlap sacks.
the reason we are not useing the hairbooms is b/c when they tried the small testing here in florida were i lived and seen with my own eyes, that when the hair is left in the water for more then an hour the hair gets heavy and sinks, so now the big problem is people are doing this and its dragging oil to the bottom of the sea, and when they tried dragging the hair with a boat it just dispersed the oil in clumps and didnt collect any oil, so there for it only works in containers like this one lol
@wrhgrace I think they bury it somewhere either in the states effected or they spread it around to large landfills like everything else. When you see the trains coming to town you betcha they r carrying something toxic 2 town. Who knows really but I saw BP's lovely video on their Boom Car wash they r so proud of.
i have a problem there is no way tht it can turn and toss yea sure the waves will shake it but gget real and how r we gonna diposal it
