"We are one of eleven technologies that has made it this far," states EVTN's COO John DiBella referring to the article referenced and linked in the paragraphs below from the WSJ.
Slideshow of Trials.
"The company (BP) has received some 120,000 suggestions. About 350 ideas have been reviewed and 41 have been field tested.
The task force, High Interest Technology Test team, will recommend ideas to the federal Mobile Incident Command Posts along the Coast as an approved clean-up tool. Only 11 products - including new kinds of skimming systems - have reached that stage so far." Excerpts from Wall Street Journal. July 23, 2010.

EVTN is the developer and manufacturer of the Voraxial® Separator, arguably the world's most efficient, high volume, bulk fluid and fluid/solid separation technology.*
 As you may already know, Enviro Voraxial Technology, along with its Voraxial® 4000 Submerged Separator unit, is participating in trials with BP as part of the Rapid Attack Team (RAT). RAT Pack is a fleet of local commercial, shallow draft nimble and fast moving vessels operating under the Vessels of Opportunity program.
As stated by BP: The Voraxial® Separator “allows oil/water separation to be done under the boat while it is moving. This will substantially speed up operations since we no longer pump the recovered oil/water mix on board the vessel which causes time wasted in offloading multiple storage tanks.
On the RAT boats, the oil will be collected in small tote tanks. The Voraxial 4000 being assessed is capable of cleaning at a rate of up to 500 gallons per minute.”

Tropical Storm Bonnie has unfortunately delayed the trials for a few days, but has also given us an opportunity to share a several photos in a slideshow and videos (video1 video2) of the Submersible Voraxial® in action with you. We hope you enjoy them and thank you for your continued support.
Have a great week.
