A toxicity estimation system for individual hydrocarbons in the monitoring loop of emergency oil spills on water bodies

Risk control under emergency oil spills requires establishing rapidly the fact of oil release in water bodies, estimating the volume of spilled oil, localizing and shifting the resulting pollution, as well as predicting the dangerous influence of oil spills on a biota and population. This paper prop...

Description
Summary:Risk control under emergency oil spills requires establishing rapidly the fact of oil release in water bodies, estimating the volume of spilled oil, localizing and shifting the resulting pollution, as well as predicting the dangerous influence of oil spills on a biota and population. This paper proposes a detection system for the above-mentioned characteristics of oil spills, which includes contact and remote sensors and employs bioinformation technologies for predicting the toxicity of individual hydrocarbons as oil components.
