ABSTRACT This invention relates to a method for neutralizing and collecting oil from oil spills and to a composition used in such method and to a combustible product produced by such method. In accordance with the method of this invention in one aspect, diatomaceous earth is used to absorb and adsorb oil from the oil spills in a proportion which will provide a clay-like product. This clay-like product can readily be removed. Where the oil spill is on water a composition is provided which is particularly suitable for collecting the oil comprising the combination of a material that is at least temporarily buoyant and diatomaceous earth. The resultant product from the method of collecting oil from oil spills on land may be used as a fuel. The same applies to the composition resulting from the collection of oil from oil spills on water where the buoyant material is combustible.
