Rounding up oil slicks
An Israeli startup called HARBO Technologies has developed a lightweight plastic boom that can be rapidly deployed to contain oil spills. The boom is compact and can be transported in a small craft, allowing for quick response times. It is designed to be stable in windy and wavy conditions, preventing oil from spilling over or seeping out. In trials, a prototype boom successfully contained around three tonnes of oil. The company is now working on developing a rapid deployment system that can be operated by a small boat with just two operators. This system could be installed in areas where oil spills are likely, such as ports, oil rigs, and tankers.
