PATENT APPLICATION TITLE OF INVENTION : OILSPILL PROTECTION KIT
PATENT APPLICATION Background of the invention Related cross- references Claims Summary of the invention Innovation
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 RELATED CROSS-REFERENCES: Considering the “Oil spills protection” field: This invention relates to the field of hazardous materials and more particularly to systems for containing oil spills. - USP Field of Innovation – class: Hydraulic and Earth Engineering – Sub Class: 60 – Oil spill containment

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. PATENT APPLICATION CLAIM :
PATENT APPLICATION 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. PATENT APPLICATION SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:
PATENT APPLICATION INNOVATION: -A based sensor automated system, assembled in the oil ships. - The “Real Time” response of this system.
