Magnetic soap | FLAINOX
When the Deepwater Horizon oil well collapsed and spilled 4.9 million barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, the dispersants used to clean up the oil created their own potential environmental problems. According to a report last year in Nature , almost 3 million liters of dispersants — including industrial soaps known as surfactants — were injected into the Deepwater Horizon oil well. Those chemicals traveled for miles beyond the spill and had only begun to break down six months later. One of the paper’s lead authors, professor Julian Eastoe, who led the research, called this “a particularly interesting discovery. By proving that magnetic soaps can be developed, future work can reproduce the same phenomenon in more commercially viable liquids for a range...
