Abstract
A cotton cloth enclosed Chitin powder compound that is sewn within the potential space inside the cotton cloth layers to contain the Chitin, which is a powerful oil sorbent. The cloth sizes range from 12" by 12" to 56" by 10 ft. At each of two opposite ends there will be a staple or nail secured wooden block or plastic block to ensure the flotation of the apparatus, running the length of the side of the apparatus. The cotton allows the penetration of the oil through it and the oil comes into contact with the Chitin inside the cotton pouch and is adsorbed and absorbed by the Chitin. The Chitin pouch can be used to apply directly to oil spills on land or water.
Description
A ~rar~ahle sued cotton pouch yr sheath filled with a pre-calibrated a~i3ouiit of Chitin powder of varying roughness and fineness that can be applied directly to spilled oils and fuels vii water acid land. Chitin is identified as C8~~I13~d05. t~or water application the pouch will be attached to light wood or plastic beams running the length of two opposite sides of the pouch. 'the apparatus iS intended to he compact, rapid to deploy h-y throwing into or onto an oil spill, where the oil will seep through the cotton and be adsorbed and absorbed by the Chitin. ?'he ropes will he included on the attached #~otatioii kgyeams for pads intended to treat water spills, so that the apparatus can be tied into booms, and easily rt~trie~ed frviri the water a#~er use.

Claims (5)
1. I claim as my invention a cotton knit pouch holding varying amounts of chitin powder within the pouch of sizes ranging from 12 inches by 12 inches to 56" by 12 feet .
2. As in claim 1, the pouch is sewn closed at both ends and or all sides, to contain the Chitin powder.
3. As in claims 1 and 2, a pair of wooden beams attached to opposing ends of two sides of the pouch will be stapled or nailed to the cotton pouch, running the full length of the said sides.
4. As in claim 3, nylon or cotton or jute rope will be fastened to the wooden beams through holes and tied in a knot for security, in up to a 3 foot length at each end to afford easy handling of the pouches, the larger size pouches may have a total of six ropes.
5. The said pouches may be tied together by the said ropes to form spill treatment booms on water spills.
