Oleology - Rapid Deployment Booms
FromOleology
Fremantle Port Authority have utilised OLEOLOGY to set up Rapid Deployment Booms (RD Booms) to effectively capture oil contamination in the harbour. Further enhancing the capture capacity of the MyCelx booms, MyCelx Versimats were deployed inside the containment booms further increasing the oil capture capacity by up to 40 to 100kg. Conventional booms and oil removal media are difficult to store, slow to deploy, require a team of people and can release oil back into the water.
