Spilling water is just as easy as getting a towel, soaking it up or letting it dry by evaporation but why isn’t it that easy when cleaning oil spills? Why does oil take almost days or even months to finally go away? Oils from organic to mineral all contain hydrocarbons, a compound of hydrogen and carbon that are the chief components of any petroleum and natural gases. Hydrocarbons spread which makes oil spread on any surface, thinner oils spreading faster because of their less viscosity. The specific
