A Costner realizes corporations own Washington and are not interested in cleaning up after themselves. Cleaning up after themselves costs money. Money that can be paid by the Tax payers.
When the wicked rule, the people mourn. No, the government (Satan worshippers who are holding governmental offices) and the BP corporation (Satan worshippers who are running the company) will not allow something that really works and doesn't cause suffering and destruction. They enjoy causing suffering, poverty, disease and death, especially when they gain wealth and power in the process of causing it. Wake up! We are in a major war on this planet. The Satanists are destroying everything.
@GIROBOTII I do also. And for trying to make a buck, and for the freinds and partners he had that made it. Kevin makes sense. Not found often in Hollywood.

@thorkyll He could be ill, or extremely tired after working night and day on this project. So your comment is silly.
It looks like some people and BP are dragging their butts and not immediately getting his machine out there. Intsead of looking stupid in that room, they should say "let's not waste another minute. Get those machines out there. It's worth a try,"
@hockeyfanredwings it doesn't take a genius to contribute something useful or beneficial for the environment and the society. i know Mr Costner is only after the money but let's take that issue aside. it's a good thing to know that there's a possible solution to the problem even if it costs too much rather than no solution at all.
BP: For very deep water oil spills you should retrofit Kevin Costner's Ocean Therapy Solution device into U.S. SUBMARINES. We could have a sea full of U.S. submarines cleaning at very deep depths.
Nothing new. I operated these seperaters at a packing house. SB80 3-phase centrafuge seperated oil, water and solids. We used extreem heat to help break the solution, here this may not be necessary, the salt will be a real headache, most likely clogging the disk stack in side these machines, as it turns, 5000 RPM it creates heat.
I have a plenty Solutions, But i am not cebrita, so BP is not like me. We propose to chemical Spin use machines from professionals (Westfalia, Alfa Laval ...). I can stop the leakage of oil in half an hour, and BP does not want, because I'm not a celebrity. Naked America. If BP has worked with me since the beginning of May, Costner would not cleaned. I know that in America you have to be a famous actor, you might have to deal with civil matters.

Pinch the pipe shut until we can find a solution. Put a bigger hose around the pipe and direct the oil into a tanker boat or something.. ANYTHING but letting it spill into the ocean
Its ridiculous that the oil is still going into the water.. after all this time
Theyre putting more effort into cleanup than prevention, disgusting people
Oil seperators have been arround for many years in different forms.They are used a lot in machine shops seperating oils from coolant.I think it's great Costner is trying to help.BP ordered 32 machines,don't know when they will be up and running,if they are large enough to even make a dent in it.I think BP is more interested in having a famous celebrity doing PR work for them.

I assumed the high ranking oil engineers would have previous knowledge of this technology. Perhaps I am wrong.

In the long run, it would just start a chain reaction of even more problems.
@hockeyfanredwings even if you say he's only up for teh money well atleast he's got a solution on how to prevent the oil spill from further damaging the environment. unlike you, you spend all day sitting in-front of your computer whining about certain issues as if your bitching can help ditch a single drop of oil from the ocean so obviously you're a Gazillion times more dumber than him so STFU
@hockeyfanredwings Get his message heard? He's offered this machine to many companies in the U.S. and off-shores and they've refused it believing they would never need it. This will be the first time he finally gets to put it to use in a environmental disaster in 17 years.
thanks kevin... Love you for your grace ... will be sneding prayers to you and the men who are working with you... I would love to help I just dont know how... I live in Canada and have felt very hopeless until now... so thank you and God bless
@hockeyfanredwings that's kind of rude.....i've seen tons of videos on youtube that are projecting their ideas to stop this massive leak. What does it hurt to give Costner's idea a shot? It seems legite and he even held a demonstration where he PROVED it separated oil from water....you've got some anger issues your acting like Costner stole your old lady...he's just trying to help!
>:( .. the old dome just as BP have built could not work..., they first had sheathed the spill area and later attach the cover ... but there was only one method by reduce pressure jet oil... the method is my project, plese loock it
Thank you Kevin Costner for being so concerned about "our" environment that you
were far sighted enough to have invested in equipment that could separate oil from water. I am so hoping your machines will save our shores, wildlife and ecological systems.
WTF? This was the same technology he used to make drinkable pee in "Waterworld." All kidding aside, thank you, Mr. Costner. Thank you, and God bless you for your tireless efforts despite the narrow-mindedness, and short-sightedness of foolish greedy men.
it would be more effective for you to watch the video. the machine that cleans the water is what's needed not the engineer. and if it takes a celebrity to get it done, that's alright with me.
he didnt bought the patent, he paid them to invent it, 20 milion $ it's a lot. I love him, he is such a wonderful person! At least he cares and he was thinking about it before anyone else
Does it matter who created the technology or who advertises it? At this point everyone needs to look at the big picture. THUMBS UP KEVIN COSTER...TRUE HERO TO OUR MOTHER EARTH!
All you people knocking Kostner for this can go fuck yourselves with a rusty chainsaw. At least he's trying to produce a solution. What the fuck have you done other than plaster your mindless drivel on to youtube comment boxes?
finally bp might have done something right (by ordering these machines) for a change, they keep messing everything up, maybe this will be the sloution to the oil spill crisis!! Thank you Kevin Costner! Smart man..
easy big fella! I say solution has been solved and thats the best we can do! GO K.COSTNER and team for thinking of better ways to run this small blue world! his WATERWORLD!
Please watch, My uncle has had the U.S patent on a machine called Circular Hydro-Petroleum seperation filter long before Kevin Costner did !! NO JOKE !! But we are not celebritys, so we have no way compare dto him to get are device out there for the public to see !! Its the SAME MACHINE !!
Kevin's brother actually made the device. He just gave him and his team the funding to continue their research and produce a machine which, could actually help. I just heard this on the radio today. Water world known for being bad enough to watch. thank you Kevin.
@CHRISTENSEN12345 Costner's isn't up to Coast Guard code. There are many REAL oil/water separation techs. These aren't new. Costner would have you believe he was the innovator. Genoil's is best. It took this tragedy and a big name actor for the public to know about these technologies.
Bravo Kevin and all those who have worked to engineer and build this possible solution!!
So where is even a single "prototype" of ANY solution from ANY of the BIGGEST oil companies on the planet? HUH? <crickets><crickets><crickets> The deafening silence of such ingenuity from BIG OIL exemplifies the height of ARROGANCE by them. Nuclear power, are you watching and learning anything from this?
@816cameron Far better oil/water separator by Genoil. Go to Genoil.ca
Costner's isn't up to Coast Guard code. There are many REAL oil/water separation techs. Genoil's is best. It took this tragedy and a big name actor for the public to know about these technologies, which aren't new.
I think its strange he had this built and spent so much money doing it--very strange??? Who thinks like that--do we have that many spills?-Really?
But they do need a big vacumn type machine to get this oil off the water...those chemicals are pushing it to the bottom of the ocean??--Thats not the answer--making it worse?
@horstizzle Why? Do you know anything about these technologies? I do. I've been an investor for over 8 years. Costner's separator doesn't meet Coast guard standards. There are many better separators, Genoil's being best (smallest footprint, most efficient, scalable).
If you've something contributory to say, please do. otherwise you're not helping.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Costner IS hocking a product that is a crock of shit compared to the real viable solution that is cheap, abundant and a 100% effective solution ...hay.
Once the oil is being mopped up Obama can sit on the pipe and take a dump - he's so full of shit he'll probably stop the leak with one grunt.
@nyrz - Google it, it's even on YouTube you stupid ass-fuck - Pull your head out your ass, then wash the shit off so I can slap your stupid fuck-face. Get informed moron.
@socommercenary - Google it, it's even on YouTube you stupid ass-fuck - Pull your head out your ass, then wash the shit off so I can slap your stupid fuck face. Get informed moron.
@theothertroll dude you said the same shit to like three other people and what is it exactly u want me to google u moron your so stupid u cant retain information ahole just stfu its obvious u dont watch the news or keep up with current events so just stfu
@soccerguy2433 - Google it, it's even on YouTube you stupid ass-fuck - Pull your head out your ass, then wash the shit off so I can slap your stupid-fuck face. Get informed moron.
@theothertroll lol. They hay worked in a fucking bowl... its easy to cover a bowl with hay. Good luck spreading and then picking up hay spread across the whole gulf. Animals might eat the hay .... Just cause there's a video of something on youtube doesn't make it PRACTICAL.
@CurtisMishleau - yea a lot of good that pump does in a limited numbers, and would take months to do the job - the oil is still gushing and the Gulf needs cleaning up like YESTERDAY! Oil just hit the Mississippi coast today; And the toxic chemical dispersants used by BP pretty much eliminates any use of the oil in any major ways. BTW - Hay is proven, natural (green), safe and in abundance. The Gov and BP are just stupid.
@alexanderd75 Clearly you didn't understand my comment... This filter does not STOP the oil from spilling! It filters the water from what HAS been spilled! I'm not contradicting these ideas it's just they have to figure out how to stop the SPILLING before you can clean up properly? Is that not logic enough for you?
U dumb americans get suckered into a product by a celebrity, he even said everybody knew about this product and they didn't use it because it's too expensive and probably not as effective as other cheaper methods. This is y bankers can steal ur money so easily because americans get easily manipulated and ur politician is corrupt as hell.
Hmm everyone is talking about cleaning up the spill but no-one knows how to stop the spilling so filtering it won't do much right now considering there's consistent oil spillage. Interesting idea for cleanup though, looks like it will help a lot with cleanup afterwards.
Why are we not mass producing thousands of these? Where are all the boatloads of hay? I want to see skimmers lined up like the invasion of Normandy.. why isn't the government taking this seriously?
Why the fuck are we not mass producing thousands of these? Where are the boat loads of of hay? I want to see skimmers lined up like the invasion of Normandy.. it is like no one is taking charge or taking this seriously
i dont think kevin costner realizes how much oil there actually is...they would need 10,000 of these in the water and some way to change the filters every minuit
complacent fuckwits. Stop arguing and ACT! It's all good and well to sit around and bitch about who's fault it is and how it could have been avoided, but unless you've got a time machine- your not helping.
Wow, all the so called Petroleum experts, engineers, academics, Fed MMS who was supposed to worry about these things which none of em did. As Mr Costner said it was an attitude of apathy. Who comes out with a machine that could clean the Gulf of Mexico? A hollywood actor.
Heads should roll because of the sheer incompetance displayed by all those involved.
So they have know about this for quite awhile. I guess we would rather build bridges to nowhere, airports that cost in the millions for Murtha and a few friends, parties for Pelosi and friends...etc., etc., etc.... oh and giving millions to illegal aliens, instead of buying these machines that would have prevented this tragedy...
Thank you Kevin Costner, I believe you are a good man.
@firecongress You forgot the $800 Billion the Bush White house gave to the Banks. I could see how something like that would slip your feeble mind.
If bush has spent a 1/10 of the Tarp on a Product like Kevin Costners Centerfuge they we would have been a lot better off. But no Greedy Wall Street needed it more then the beings living in the Gulf of Mexico. To hell whith them.
haha i work on cruise ships as an engineer. We have oily water seperators that can clean the oil better(less PPM) and quicker (larger volume/hr). search *Alfa Laval Purifyer Oily water.
It figures that no one listened to him when he first created the machine. That is just so like this human society. And even now with all the evidence out in the open that it works, the question remains....will BP and the government use Costner's technology to the fullest? If they don't then it will appear that they actually wanted the disaster to occur in the first place as the conspiracy theorists suggest.
No matter if its the celebrity trying to sell it or the engineer who invented it, the fact of the matter is we need to use this technology NOW! who cares how much it costs because right now the world is paying the price not the taxpayers.
Looks like a good idea for when the oil reaches the surface. The problem is underwater currents are spreading the oil over large areas. Here is a concept we developed for a rapid oil spill containment system. If it is contained to a smaller area, other clean up solutions will be more effective.
@dcjhrj Unfortunately celebrities too often have more access to the media. Would CSB have carried this story if it was just "Joe Scientist" testifying today. Cosner has put millions of dollars of his own money into this - also something available to some celebs, and not most research scientists. I applaud Mr. Cosner's determination and can only hope that our lame government will get on board with this solution or we will only be able to draw the conclusin made by #
@dcjhrj No worries! Thanks for the reply. Let's just hope that the government listens and takes action so we don't have to continue to be the victims of what is really looking like an intentional event by BP. There was a report today about the plan they had in place faking data and citing experts who were dead even before the report was published!
I believe it was Kevin's brother (a scientist) and a team of scientists who made the system to work on this scale. Now sure how it's constructed, but I say slap a couple Tesla Turbines into the next batch of machines and really move some volume.
@dcjhrj The invention might not have been made had it not been for the funding provided by this person who just so happens to be a celebrity. Does IBM or HP or any of the major technology companies highlight their R&D staff?
@lg123xyz No they do not and that is part of what is wrong with the balance in the monetary system. the question is do we keep accepting that as a fact of life, or do we seek to change those unfair conditions?
@dcjhrj : Look - I know you mean well, but this is how industry works... The man who developed the patent received payment for that patent, and then the person who bought the patent invested a vast amount of money to develop it further... He owns the company and pushed forward development of the machines, so why shouldn't he get out there and sell it!?

@hockeyfanredwings even if you say he's only up for teh money well atleast he's got a solution on how to prevent the oil spill from further damaging the environment. unlike you, you spend all day sitting in-front of your computer whining about certain issues as if your bitching can help ditch a single drop of oil from the ocean so obviously you're a Gazillion times more dumber than him so STFU

BTW - Hay is proven, natural (green), safe and in abundance. The Gov and BP are just stupid.

Hmm everyone is talking about cleaning up the spill but no-one knows how to stop the spilling so filtering it won't do much right now considering there's consistent oil spillage. Interesting idea for cleanup though, looks like it will help a lot with cleanup afterwards.

If they don't then it will appear that they actually wanted the disaster to occur in the first place as the conspiracy theorists suggest.

Looks like a good idea for when the oil reaches the surface. The problem is underwater currents are spreading the oil over large areas. Here is a concept we developed for a rapid oil spill containment system. If it is contained to a smaller area, other clean up solutions will be more effective.
