I looked in their financial filings,and Mop....a couple years ago had 1 cannon at $10k each.
The Mop cat is a tiny machine and,IMO,completely usess for this scale of spill.Nice for small,local spills but for monster spills like this....to even consider the Mop cat is absurd. I'm a holder here and no basher. I just call it as I see it and I'm not blind. I saw the Axelrod video.I see how the rescue process works...... but in that video, the only materials separation shown was water. The sorbent sand and oil remained in
the mixer. End of video.
If there is a Mop process for cleaning the sand,I certainly want to know about it. But speculating doesn't qualify as knowing for me. I know that the whole purpose of those microbes in the sorbent is to digest the oil once locked up by the sorbent.......and that is why the sorbent DOESN'T have to be removed from the soil.
If I'm mistaken,I'm all ears....
