A compositional Eulerian approach for modeling oil spills in the sea
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a Compositional Eulerian model to forecast the evolution of oil spills in sea. The allows studying fate not only concentration but also each component (e.g., volatile, non-volatile, water oil). Therefore, problem is formulated as conservation equation for component, plus an estimate age oil, which us assess weathering processes evaporation, natural dispersion, emulsion) and associated changes properties. describe efficient implementation, using second order numerical schemes advection nonlinear diffusion terms, reduce diffusion. perform experiments, based on real synthetic cases, illustrate validate capabilities our environmental risk analysis case potential accident.

Satellite observations of oil spills in Bohai Sea
Several oil spills occurred at two oil platforms in Bohai Sea, China on June 4 and 17, 2011. The oil spills were subsequently imaged by different types of satellite sensors including SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), Chinese HJ-1-B CCD and NOAA MODIS. In order to detect the oil spills more accurately, images of the former three sensors were used in this study. Oil spills were detected using the s...
متن کاملContainment & Recovery of Oil Spills at Sea . Methods and Limitations .
The ultimate aim of any oil recovery operation at sea is to collect as much floating oil as is reasonably and economically possible. However, a review of past spills shows that rarely is more than 10% of spilled oil recovered from the sea surface. Although many methods of mechanical containment and recovery exist, each has its own limitations which affect the overall success of a recovery opera...
متن کاملOperational Model for Prediction Circulation and Transport of Oil Spills in the Black Sea
An operational model for the prediction of circulation and transport of oil spill in the Black Sea is presented. The hydrodynamic block is developed on the basis of the DieCAST high-resolution low-dissipative model adapted to the Black Sea. The oil spill transport block is constructed on the basis of the random walk approach, which allows predicting motion of individual particles, the assembly ...
متن کاملThe Legacy of Oil Spills
On April 20, 2010, an explosion occurred on a British Petroleum (BP) Deep Water Horizon platform, and 2 days later, the platform collapsed. Eleven workers were killed, and oil has been gushing out ever since. Although the initial reports were that about 50,000 gal were being released per day, every few weeks, the estimates released to the American public increased, until in early June, the comp...
متن کاملBioremediation of oil spills
Microbes consumed oil rapidly http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/08/ 110801111752.htm In the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the oil disappeared more rapidly than predicted. This article discusses some of the studies investigating the underlying causes of this rapid biodegradation. Oil spill is boon to bacteria http://classic.the-scientist.com/blog/display/57448/ This ...
