Re: To burn it?



They also showed pictures from a research center CEDRE (in
Brest) which specializes in oil spills. Burning of floating layers
is probably not possible for some reason.

Could be physics. It is probably difficult to maintain combustion
below some critical temperature (the ignition point, perhaps), and
the oil is in close contact with a heat sink.
