To burn it?



There was an oil spill from a sunk tanker 8 days ago, about
100 miles west from the coast of France. It will probably hit
the shore today or tomorrow. Is it possible to ignite a floating
oil spot? A clearly visible spot of size about 150 m was shown
on TV last night. What else can chemists do to minimize the
environmental impact?
