Oil giant BP has established an Alternative Response Technology Web site where people can submit ideas for cleaning up the torrent of oil that has spewed into the Gulf of Mexico since April.
One of the products picked from that process is a sand-cleaning system from Clean Beach Technologies. Oily sand is poured into a hopper and then is moved through three tanks where it is treated with water and chemicals to physically separate the oil and sand.
