Patent

CA 2175088

An improved boom for use in containing oil spills and the like on water comprises a floatation tube (10), an upper chain pocket (11), a skirt (13), and a lower chain pocket (14). The skirt (13) may be made to sink by placing a chain in the lower chain pocket (14). The spill is contained and buoyancy provided for the boom, by filling the floatation tube with a particulate liquid sorbent. The tube (10) is fabricated of a mesh material pervious to both the oil and water. The skirt (13) may be fabricated of a material pervious to water, and if so desired, to oil.

Barrage flottant perfectionné servant à limiter l'extension des nappes d'hydrocarbures ou analogue à la surface de l'eau, et comportant un flotteur tubulaire (10), une poche supérieure à chaîne (11), une jupe (13) et une poche inférieure à chaîne (14). On place une chaîne dans la poche inférieure à chaîne (14) si l'on veut que la jupe (13) s'enfonce dans l'eau. On peut limiter l'extension de la nappe, et assurer la flottabilité du barrage, en remplissant le flotteur tubulaire d'un sorbant particulaire liquide. Ledit flotteur tubulaire (10) est constitué d'une matière maillée perméable tant aux hydrocarbures qu'à l'eau. La jupe (13) peut être constituée d'une matière perméable à l'eau et, le cas échéant, aux hydrocarbures.
