Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a substantially intact proteinaceous particulate material that is effective as an oil spill dispersant composition. In a preferred respect, the invention is a grain product (such as oats) from which lipids are removed through organic solvent extraction. When such compositions are applied to an oil spill, they will adsorb oil, emulsify it, and finally disperse the oil with high efficiency. Moreover, the compositions are substantially non-toxic.
