Gulf Oil Spill - Clean Up Equipment

   
Interesting note about technology being deployed to help with the oil leak in the Gulf.

Ocean Therapy Solutions, a company backed by Kevin Costner, sold 32 centrifuges to BP.  These centrifuges will be used to seperate the oil and water.

In 1993 Kevin procured a technology transfer from the Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory for a centrifugal oil-water separator. He founded Costner Industries (CINC) and committed the next 15 years, and over $20 million toward research and development, advocacy and outreach on behalf of a rugged, compact portable device that would serve as a first line of defense in oil spill clean up and recovery.


Costner's vision and ultimate success with CINC technology is its unparalleled efficiency and success in spill clean up. More information.

It is refreshing to see Hollywood money being invested in quality projects such Ocean Therapy Solutions.  Hats off to Mr. Costner.
