Step 5Filter!!
Find some bunker fuel floating around and scoop it up. If you need some, you can bring your filter to the Bay area. We still have 46,000 gallons you can practice on.
Dump contaminated water in the top...and watch nice clean water come out the side.
The filter is capable of collecting about four gallons of floating, oily waste. Then you put the cap on it and drop it off at the San Francisco Household Hazerdous Waste Facility. You can learn more about them at http://www.sunsetscavenger.com/sfhhw/index.htm.
There you have it! There are lots of clever ways to clean up oil spill. We've heard stories about people using screen doors and all kinds of things. Heck, we even had pretty good luck using a fish net. The trick is, what do you do with an oil covered screen door? At the end of the day, all we want is a cheap, portable device that will cleanly capture large, sticky, oily waste and safely contain it for proper disposal.
Why not build one up, come on out to the Bay Area, and see if you can't catch a little oil?!! We'll be right there with you.
