PATENT APPLICATION

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

- Oil spills frequently occur in the ocean, rivers. Any standard countermeasure is defined to be applied immediatly.

- The Protection systems known are mostly of Mechanical Containment, - barriers, booms and skimmers - which have some disadvantages.

- Chemical and Biological Systems are not integrated in a way that can be use in “Real Time”.

-Most of the Devices are optimised for one kind of oil. (fuel-oil, crude, gasoil, gasoline).

PATENT APPLICATION

CLAIM :

-What I claim as my invention is an automated “real time” device that starts a process against an occurred oil spill, in considering danger situations in the oil ships, comprising:

Activation System Unit - Main Control Box, 2 inclinometer sensors, 2 impact sensors.

Floating Device - Four floatable containers with chemical agent .

FOA - floating oil agglomerating agent

- I claim a device that can be used, considering a wide range of oils, fuel-oil, crude, gasoil, gasoline.

- It is compatible for different chemicals.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:

•The present invention provides an oil containment system for mounting on oil ships.

•Can be easily and rapidly manually activated or sensor activated, when an accident occurs or a danger situation that could cause a oil spill.

• After activated, the system releases the floating devices.

• Once the floating devices reach the water, FOA is gradually released acting as agglomerating agent, preventing the oil to reach the coast or to disperse in the ocean.

• Agglomerates can then easily be picked with a mechanical method, and the oil recycled.
