As BP struggles to contain the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, an Indian-origin scientist from Texas University has created a special cotton fabric that can clean up crude oil up to 40 times its weight and help in cleaning efforts.
Seshadri Ramkumar, associate professor of the Texas Tech Institute of Environmental and Human Health, has created a non- oven environment-friendly cotton carbon absorbent wipes, Fibertect."Cotton fibre contains 0.5 per cent wax, which enables it to soak up 40 times its weight," Ramkumar said.
New opportunities for cotton are always good news for producers, especially if it will help them sell low-quality cotton, said Shawn Wade, director of communications for Plains Cotton Growers.
What makes Fibertect different from other cotton absorption technologies, however, is its combination with carbon.
It is a three-layer design consisting of a top and bottom layer of cotton to absorb oil and a middle layer of carbon that absorbs hydrocarbons and harmful carcinogenic vapours released from the oil.
"The natural wax on the cotton helps to hold the oil together. So, wax has affinity towards oil, and then the carbon has affinity towards vapour, it holds the vapour." Because Fibertect is all- atural, unlike synthetic plastic booms previously used to clean oil spills, it is 100 per cent biodegradable and one sheet can be wrung and reused up to five times.
"Corexit EC9500A" , dispersants used by BP till now is itself toxic, is that it simply breaks down the oil into tiny particles which remain in the water and can be harmful to marine life and humans.
The potential benefits of Dr Ramkumar's research stretch far beyond helping preserve the environment from natural and man- ade disasters and raising Texas Tech's reputation in the higher education community nationally and internationally.
but BP has not taken any decision about use of cotton yet..

The mouth of a bowhead whale makes up 1/3 of it's body length and since they can grow 60 feet in length, their mouths grow up to 20 feet wide.

Great topic...i wnna give it a try..ok so mera life path number haga 4. Uhmm and the destiny number is 4 too..their both da same...i hope dat's not a bad thing :sad:
Pehla Tah Sorry Raje.. For delayed response..
LIFE PATH NO- 4 indicates that u r hardworking person 1. You r very social and kind of creater of society. You are one of the most trustworthy, practical, and down-to-earth of individuals; the cornerstone members of society. 2.All with this Life Path have the ability to take orders and to carry them out with dedication and perseverance and many 4s live and work happily in this context.You make best out of ur marriage.
3.You have the kind of will power that is often mistaken for sheer stubbornness. 4.You are an excellent organizer and planner because of your innate ability to view things in a very common sense and practical way. This stems from a strong desire to be a perfectionist in your labor.
DESTINY NO- 4 1.The number 4 Destiny suggests that the direction of growth in your lifetime will be toward a greater sense of order, service, and management skills.You must be willing to work those long, hard hours to push a project through to completion.
2.In the arts, music will likely be your choice. Artistic talents may also appear in such fields as horticulture and floral arrangement. Many skilled physicians and especially surgeons have the 4 Destiny.
3.It will be difficult to hide your disappointment when ur frdz dont meet ur expectations..
From compatibility aspect u r naturally fit with 2,4,8 nos but little adjust ment is needed with 6,7 but will face challenge with 1,3,5,9.
