Oil spill response in the marine environment

Ulje kao glavni pokretač svjetske industrije predstavlja potencijalno veliku opasnost po biljni i životinjski svijet ako dospije u okoliš. Konstantnim povećanjem svjetske flote mogućnost dolaska do izljeva ulja u okoliš sve se više povećava. Kako bi se posljedice izljeva ulja umanjile što je više moguće, potrebno je osigurati preventivne mjere i upotrebu provjerenih metoda i tehnika uklanjanja ulja koje će ostaviti najmanji utjecaj na okoliš tj. vratiti ga u prvobitno stanje prije izljeva. Danas postoje razne organizacije kojima je cilj pomoći državama i kompanijama da implementiraju postupke odnosno plan u slučaju uljnog onečišćenja s unaprijed razmotrenim metodama uklanjanja kako bi intervencija bila što učinkovitija u uklanjanju i smanjenju onečišćenja uljem. Svrha ovog rada je analizirati različite tehnike uklanjanja uljnog onečišćenja mora koje se primjenjuju u praksi s ciljem određivanja onih metoda koje imaju najmanje utjecaja na okoliš.Oil, as the main driver of world industry, poses a potentially great danger to flora and fauna if it enters the environment. With the constant increase of the world fleet, the possibility of oil spills entering the environment is increasing. In order to minimize the consequences of oil spills, it is necessary to ensure preventive measures and the use of proven methods and techniques for oil removal that will have least impact on the environment, i.e. return it to its original state before the oil spill. Today, there are various organizations whose goal is to help countries and companies implement procedures or plans in the case of oil pollution with pre-considered removal methods to make the intervention as effective as possible in removing and reducing oil pollution. The purpose of this paper is to analyse different techniques for removing oil spills from the marine environment which are used in the field with the goal of determining methods which have the least impact to the environment
