We created OilSorb to combat the growing problem of water pollution caused by oil spills and leaks. As young innovators, we wanted to develop a sustainable, affordable, and eco-friendly solution that protects aquatic life and ensures clean water for future generations.
In practice, OilSorb appears as a lightweight, sponge-like material made from natural fibers. It is placed directly onto oil-contaminated water, where it rapidly absorbs oil without soaking up water. After use, it can be safely removed and disposed of or repurposed, offering an efficient and user-friendly cleanup process.
OilSorb has gained attention through environmental competitions, youth entrepreneurship programs, and school-based sustainability projects. We’ve shared our innovation at science fairs, social media platforms, and community workshops to raise awareness about water pollution. Collaborations with environmental organizations and feedback from experts have helped us improve and promote our product. As we continue developing prototypes, we aim to reach NGOs, coastal municipalities, and industries to implement OilSorb in real-life scenarios.
If you want to try OilSorb, you can reach out to our team through our social media pages or project platforms. We’ll be happy to provide sample materials, explain how to use them effectively, and collect your feedback. We are also open to pilot programs, partnerships, and collaborations with schools, institutions, and eco-conscious communities. Let’s work together for cleaner water!
