ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the recovery of oils or other similar pollutants floating on bodies of water, including the open seas, and a related support vessel, including a conveying apparatus and a recovery unit for the floating oils which both float autonomously and independently of each other and from the support vessel. The conveying apparatus includes two self-buoyant arms disposed in the shape of a V, flexible with respect to a vertical plane to ride the waves, and towed by the support vessel by means of two swinging forks. The recovery unit comprises two large rotating, horizontal axis drums, surrounded on the lateral and the rear sides by an apron to contain the floating oils, and is towed by the support vessel to float independently. Pumping means for the recovered oils is provided.
