Dutch oil clean up team told filtering oil from water not ok, using chemicals is.
Two Dutch companies are on stand-by to help the Americans tackle an oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico. The two companies use huge booms to sweep and suck the oil from the surface of the sea. The US authorities, however, have difficulties with the method they use.

The Americans don’t have spill response vessels with skimmers because their environment regulations do not allow it. With the Dutch method seawater is sucked up with the oil by the skimmer. The oil is stored in the tanker and the superfluous water is pumped overboard. But the water does contain some oil residue, and that is too much according to US environment regulations.[media:factfile1]

US approach is nonsense, because otherwise you would have to store the surplus seawater in the tanks as well.

US regulations are contradictory, Mr Knoops stresses. Pumping water back into the sea with oil residue is not allowed. But you are allowed to combat the spill with chemicals so that the oil dissolves in the seawater. In both cases, the dissolved oil is naturally broken down quite quickly.

On a different note. Now that Obama is by far the worst American president in history, can he become the worst leader ever?

Brilliant logic. Why filter 90% of the oil from the seawater and dump the rest back in when you can keep 100% of oil in the sea and dump a lot more chemicals over it all? another do

From the comments at the link:

BP and USCG will eventually use tankers to collect the oil that has been released into the Gulf of Mexico as a result of the Deepwater Horizon blowout of April 20, 2010. Unfortunately, this decision will be made after the devastation of many coastal communities.

Since May 17, 2010, Renergie, Inc. has submitted unsolicited proposals for the purpose of using three Panamax class crude tankers for the collection and onboard separation of the BP oil spill to every federal agency, state agency, state elected official and federal elected official with even a remote interest in the BP oil spill.

The USCG response to Renergie's proposal stated, “Unfortunately, the Coast Guard does not currently have a mission and is not hiring contractors. However, if BP requests names, I will recommend and forward your company.”

The blowout of April 20, 2010 aboard the Deepwater Horizon was clearly preventable. The fact that the BP oil spill has been allowed to reach coastal areas is inexcusable.

Re: Dutch oil clean up team told filtering oil from water not ok, using chemicals is.
Dispersants make skimmers ineffective. We need the oil on top of the water, instead of mixed up with it. ( :') it's goddamn ridiculous when you think about it, that there will be a bit of oil thrown back with the seawater when skimmed. Whilst dispersants mix up the oil with the seawater)

Still it will get rid of a lot of oil. And there is a lot of oil. And there will be more oil coming.

We are the goddamn Dutch. We breath water, and wooden shoes enable us to walk over it. Let us clean this shit up.

The Dutch will also build a dike near the coastline to protect the swamps and try to preserve ecologic environment. The sanddike will be 1.80 meters above the water to block of the oil. Read it in an article today.

I am sure the right wing "whoever that is" made Obama bow down to cock level at every meeting overseas. I am sure they held him at gunpoint while they blocked off NY for his kiddies to shop. They forced him to hand over borrowed money to unions and banks. Shall I go on, cause this site may not have the space.

BP doesnt want them being used because the guys on the board of the company that makes the dispersant are all ex bp executives, some say bp is buying and using their stuff to technically transfer bp funds to this company if bp ever goes bankrupt they will use these fund in this company to make a new bp.
