DeVries, the BP executive, said there is time to develop a plan because the leak isn't expected to be stopped before August. Oil could be hitting the coast through mid-fall. Possible options include washing sand chemically or even heating it in an incinerator to burn off the oil, he said.

Possible Options?
Deep Cleaning!

GMTA,

Great article flyboy, glad you posted it.

Noticed this part in it:

"The eventual solution could look like what's going on at Grand Isle, La., where officials want to use sand-washers like those already used extensively in Canada to cull tar from vast deposits." ... Could this be the part of Canada where EVXA is/has already been working?

GLTA today!

Thanks fly. Anyone familiar with the Valdez oil spill story will know that the methods they used to clean those beaches were extremely toxic and caused high rates of cancer and death. Twenty years later, you can dig a few inches under the sand and there is still oil present, which means not only were the clean up techniques toxic, they were also ineffective.

EVXA has a mega opportunity in front of them.

Thanks Flyboy. I liked this:

The eventual solution could look like what's going on at Grand Isle, La., where officials want to use sand-washers like those already used extensively in Canada to cull tar from vast deposits.

Sand will be collected by sifting machines dubbed "Sandbonis," a reference to the Zamboni machines used to resurface ice rinks. The sand will be dumped into a container, sifted again, and washed with 110-degree water, then mild detergent. It will be tested before eventually being replaced on the beach.

"This is impressive," Coast Guard Adm. Robert Papp Jr. said at a demonstration. "To be able to take the sand off the beach, clean it and put it back is much better than hauling it away."

I only know of EnviroXtracts process by what they describe on their website:

OUR TECHNOLOGY
Our proprietary environmental remediation concept utilizes a coupling of electromagnetic and electrostatic energy sources in a closed vacuum environment. This emerging technology is based upon our experience with similar advanced applications. Our unique process can break even the most stubborn chemical bonds, creating a complete separation of petroleum, chemicals, and organic matter from both rock and soil.

...but maybe that description in the article is in layman's terms.

Lots of potential here IMO.
