1. This is great! Where did you find it?

BO needs to obtain about 10 million units of this stuff!

2. A friend sent me the video to watch.

From the video poster:


" Crude oil is a solid??


This Videotape for AeroHaz Products was made in 1997 for the benefit of promoting a material that could be used in Emergency situations of Capturing Petroleum based materials such as Crude Oil, Gasoline, Diesel Oil, Fuel Oil, Aviation Jet Fuels and such. This product is currently defunct as is the company, Sustainable Technologies Corporation, Lewisburg, Ohio.


The product was modified and all characteristics of the Polymers are yet the same, however, the particle size is different and suitable for shoreline-type or open-ocean type cleanup operations.


Renamed AmeriHaz Petroleum Solidifier, this product may be made available to Emergency Response Crews battling Crude Oil Emergencies, protecting Marshlands, Beaches and pristine Marine areas.


AmeriHaz may be deployed using Rescue-boats, dispensed using air-jet blowers towing a SuperSak of material floating behind the Rescue Raft and vacuuming the pelletized polymer. AmeriHaz will not sink and is inherently Buoyant even after Oil has been solidified in it.


Collecting the solidified Petroleum using drag nets, towed the shore and placed into a large Metal Storage vessel, the Crude may be recovered in a separate process at a letter date, after the Emergency has ran the Course.

Looks really good!

6. Questions --

1. What happens to the excess AmeriHaz material that doesn't combine with the oil? Does it remain in a solid, semi-solid, suspended state? Is it itself toxic?

2. How much of this material is available for immediate use?

3. What is the cost of this material?

4. How would it be used in confined areas such as grassy marshlands, mixed with sand on beaches, on animals?

5. What would be done with the solidified crude after collection? What is the process for extracting it from the AmeriHaz compound? What is the cost of that extraction? Are there toxic byproducts of the extraction?

ALL I'M DOING IS ASKING. THAT'S WHAT ANY SENSIBLE PERSON SHOULD DO. This may be the miracle everyone wants it to be, or it may be a contaminant on a par with dioxin, agent orange, thalidomide, etc. Wouldn't you want to know that before the government and/or BP started dumping a billion pounds of it in the Gulf of Mexico? Wouldn't you?


Well, some of you, maybe not.

7. I think those are excellent questions. I hope we get some answers.

I think we'll need a lot of this stuff in the next year or two.

8. For what it's worth, I was unable to find any references to

AmeriHaz or AeroHaz via Google prior to 5/17/2010.

Dr. Mike Castle, the inventor, is soliciting donations to manufacture the stuff -- he says it's "non-toxic" -- for use in the Gulf. (Or someone doing so in his name.)

Seeing as how we've had lots of other spills around the world, large and small, and this product apparently hasn't been utilized, I'm thinking there are serious problems with it. Could be cost. Could be toxicity. Could be just about anything.

When I worked in a couple of retail stores, we had a spill-containment material -- I do not recall the name of it -- that was posted at various places around the store much as fire extinguishers were. This material, a granulated substance, worked pretty much like AmeriHaz in the video. Liquid spills were absorbed and easily swept up. How that material worked, I don't know, but I'm guessing it was different from AmeriHaz.

Again, spills of petroleum and petroleum-based liquids are not uncommon, and if this material works so well and is non-toxic and is AFFORDABLE, it should have been in production over the past 12-13 years, even if sold as just a commercial or industrial cleaning aid.

So pardon me if my warning bells are going off.

9. Thanks for the reply. I agree, warning bells, what is the full story as to

why this stuff is not available in large quantities, and why it, or something similar, is NOT in common use anywhere there is an oil based product in use, gas stations, refineries, oil rig platforms, ships.

10. We used a similar product

on bio-hazard blood spills to jell the blood then sweep it up in a little disposable dust pan.
What a great idea. The product encapsulates rather than absorbs. I've been imagining some absorbent material, this is WAY better.
