A New Pair of Eyes II. Looking at Dispersants from a Different Point of View

Source

Those concerned with managing oil spills have been struggling for the past 15 to 20 years to improve the application and effectiveness of dispersants. Progress has been slow and uneven, especially in the United States where the attitude of regulatory agencies has been to downplay the use of dispersants. This paper takes a serious (occasionally irreverent) approach to the problem of dispersing oil, using some different viewpoints than have been used in the past.
