Abstract

The object of the invention is to use a method of soaking up oil on water. This is performed by a mat which is produced from tear-resistant woven fabric or nonwoven filter cloth and contains expanded clay or peat litter, or both mixed, as content. This content is made water-repellent, so that it does not absorb any water but only the oil, and does not subsequently release the oil. The mats can be rolled up and can be made in various sizes.

Description

Beschreibungdescription

Verfahren zum Aufsaugen von Öl durch Aufsaugmatten Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, auf dem Wasser schwimmendes flüssiges Öl zu binden, so daß sich das Öl weder bei gutem noch bei schlechtem Wetter ausbreiten kann. Durch die Ausbreitung werden Natur, Strände, Salzwiesen und die Tierwelt stark bedroht.Method for soaking up oil through absorbent mats The invention has the task of binding liquid oil floating on the water so that the Oil cannot spread in either good or bad weather. By spreading nature, beaches, salt marshes and the animal world are seriously threatened.

Es kommt zu Anstrandungen von Tausenden von Vögeln, die durch Ölfilme, die ihr Gefieder verklebt haben, qualvoll sterben mußten. Das auf der Wasseroberfläche ungebunden schwimmende Öl wird mehr und mehr zur Bedrohung.Thousands of birds are stranded by oil films, who have stuck their plumage together had to die in agony. That on the surface of the water Unattached floating oil is becoming more and more of a threat.

Man hat bestimmte Verfahren zum Auffangen von 01 entwickelt, die bei starkem Seegang jedoch nicht funktionieren. Man entwickelte Auffangschiffe und Skimmer, die nur bei Windstärken von 4 bis 5 funktionieren. Ferner hat man Chemikalien, Kunststoffpartikel und Bimsmehl entwickelt, die das Öl auffangen sollen. Diese Verfahren haben den Nachteil, daß das Öl bei Seegang langsam wieder ausblutet.Certain methods of collecting 01 have been developed which are used in heavy seas, however, will not work. Arrest ships and skimmers were developed, which only work in winds of 4 to 5. You also have chemicals, plastic particles and pumice flour to catch the oil. These procedures have the Disadvantage that the oil slowly bleeds out again in rough seas.

Ferner wurde in der Patentanmeldung vom 31. Januar 1983 ein Verfahren veröffentlicht, welches das Öl durch Blähtonkügelchen aufsaugen soll und es nicht mehr ergibt Dies hat den Nachteil, daß sich die Kügelchen unkontrolliert verbreiten können und bei jeder Sturmflut an den Küsten und Stränden anlanden.Furthermore, in the patent application dated January 31, 1983, a method published which the oil should soak up through expanded clay pellets and it should not more This has the disadvantage that the beads spread out in an uncontrolled manner can and land on the coasts and beaches with every storm surge.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, ein Verfahren zu finden,welches das Öl auf dem Wasser auffängt, aber kein Wasser annimmt. Es sollte bei kleineren und größeren Ölunfällen einsetzbar sein.The invention has the task of finding a method which Catches oil on the water, but does not accept water. It should be with smaller and be used for larger oil spills.

Überraschend wurde ein System erfunden, bei dem Blähton o. ä.Surprisingly, a system was invented in which expanded clay or the like.

Kügelchen sowie stark saugender Torfmull als Gemisch oder auch getrennt in Vliesmatten eingenäht werden, die in verschiedenen Größen herstellbar sind. Die Vliesmatten sollten eine Stärke von mindestens 2 cm bis maximal 30 cm haben.Pellets as well as highly absorbent peat waste as a mixture or separately are sewn into fleece mats, which can be produced in different sizes. the Fleece mats should have a thickness of at least 2 cm to a maximum of 30 cm.

Diese Vliesmatten sind aufrollbar und können mit einem Hubschrauber zur Unglücksstelle geflogen werden.These fleece mats can be rolled up and used with a helicopter be flown to the scene of the accident.

Der Inhalt dieser Matten ist mit hydrophobierenden Mitteln getränkt, so daß die Matten zwar Wasser durchfiltern, jedoch kein Wasser aufnehmen, sondern nur das Öl und dieses festhält. Auch bei Seegang oder längerem Schütteln über Monate wird der Inhalt der Matte das Öl nicht hergeben. Diese Matten können per Boot oder Schiff durch die ölverseuchten Flächen geschleppt werden.The content of these mats is impregnated with water-repellent agents, so that the mats filter water through, but do not absorb water, but only the oil and this holds on. Even with rough seas or prolonged shaking over months the contents of the mat will not give up the oil. These mats can be shipped by boat or Ship being towed through the oil contaminated areas.

Aufgerollt oder halb aufgerollt dienen die Matten auch als Ö1-sperren für Flüsse und kleinere Gewässer. Matten in kleinerer Ausführung von ca. 20 m2 können in kleinen und mittleren Häfen Anwendung finden.Rolled up or half rolled up, the mats also serve as Ö1 barriers for rivers and smaller bodies of water. Mats in a smaller version of approx. 20 m2 can are used in small and medium-sized ports.

Nachdem sich die Matte mit Öl gefüllt hat, wird sie an Land oder in den Hafen geschleppt, aufgerollt und in eine ölfeste Folie eingeschweißt.After the mat is filled with oil, it is placed on land or in dragged to the port, rolled up and shrink-wrapped in an oil-proof film.

Die Matten werden aus reiß-festem Gewebe oder aus Filtervlies zusammengenäht.The mats are sewn together from tear-resistant fabric or from filter fleece.
