ABSTRACT:
A method for treating a body of water forming a solar pond includes applying oil to the surface of the pond from at least one predetermined area of the surface, collecting oil from the surface, purifying the collected oil, and then recirculating the purified oil to said at least one predetermined area. Apparatus is provided for performing the method and includes wind-activated nozzles for applying the oil at an upwind peripheral location, a trough for collecting the oil at a downwind peripheral location, a filter for purifying the collected oil, color and spreadability sensors for examining the collected oil, and a quality improvement device for controlling the quality of the collected oil in accordance with the sensor output. A pump and pipe recirculate the treated oil from the trough to the nozzles.
