Living near where the Gulf spill happened in 2010, I can say this could have been the best method for the cleanup instead of the polymer they used little bags of HAIR! The oil stuck to the individual hairs and were able to be removed from the gulf from ships. Great demonstration!
Is this polymer safe for animals to eat? Also, like some other comments mentioned, if an animal eats some of the polymer that has the oil around it, would it hurt the animal?
Assuming you meant soap, It will form a scum which if denser than ocean water will just sink to the bottom. Just like washing oil/grease on clothes with soap.
A 1:1 ratio, that's great, so assuming the spill is contained, you would put a million gallons of that polymer on a million gallon spill. Of course, large spills are never effectively contained, so you would need even more polymer. How would you recover a million gallons of oil-soaked polymer, and how would you transport it? Where would you dispose of it?
@@rigelspradling2008 ruclips.net/video/sPgLJrk0sGQ/видео.html How about let's fight it with something more natural that will break down. Plastic will stick around that is like fighting fire with fire we will change one problem with another and our ocean really does not need more plastic in it even worse micro scopic plastics that we cant see.. oh yeah smart.
+Tiffany Barnes I forgot what I was even trying to go with here haha I think I was trying to come up with a name for the "bags." I'm pretty sure I was high when I wrote this.

Yeah that never used it right they used human hair right, how is it down there?
what type of polymer is that
What polymer is this

Wonderful
What is that powder u sprinkled on oil spill
Where can I buy this , is it available in market?
Just one question. Can you recover the oil from the adsorbed polymer? Or else it creates another environmental hazard.
That's why he said it can be burned for energy recovery or you can incinerate like trash.
82th t
thimbnail oil spin
what is the powder
This is cool
In the Gulf they just sank the oil with Corexit to the sea floor.
Because if you can't see it, then it's not a problem anymore.
Wait, so does that mean that you could use that pink precipitate to make oil back again? Like reusing it?
if that was true we would probably use the polymer to store it so to prevent the spills ever happening assuming the special polymer was also reusable
Where can i get this polymer from?
You can buy it from the web site
@@osspillkits can you specify it... As I am in India. Please tell which site.
go to this site, then store, then OS powder.
@@osspillkits this site is not for India people. It is only for Canadian and USA citizens.. Please help
@@osspillkits what is the common name of this polymer
What is that tube thingy filled with it called?
+jadacrow A tube sock
that's cool
This envirobond 403 is synthetic or natural polymer?
This is not envirobond
This is OS powder
Its called Enviro-bond
Its oil solutions. Aka aqua ancap on the epa.gov listing.
''what's the powder called?
Oil solutions powder
where can I buy the power?
Hello
Things that don't catch on 😢😔
I want to know why using soup is not good?

new recipe for floam
anybody know what kind of polymer is that?
+hasan ism Maxipad polymers ;)
You can see it on epa.gov search oil solutions

At least there is something that shows progress in science. Someone spent hours in the lab to develop this polymer you are criticizing.
Okay, now we are going to add more plastic to the ocean willingly, a polymer is tiny bits of plastic.
you're right, we should let the oil kill the animals its own special way
@@rigelspradling2008, you're a special kind of stupid. lol

Hehehe 69 degrees...
At this point in time No oil should be sold to human being without the ability to clean it up safe and effectively.
Why not this in sandbags then line the beaches with them
Joel Woodward then they wouldn't be called "Sand Bags" lol but i get what your saying
+Caden Redpath would douchbags work??
+Jeremiah Tallant No polymerbags

The news anchor is so annoying

very nice comment
