A University of Utah engineer has developed an inexpensive new method to remove oil sheen by repeatedly pressurizing and depressurizing ozone gas, creating microscopic bubbles that attack the oil so it can be removed by sand filters. —Professor Andy Hong. The ozone in the bubble attacks certain pollutants because it is a strong oxidant.
