Program Purpose (French)
L'objectif de cette entente est d'appuyer la mise au point d'agents hybrides de traitement des déversements aux fins d'utilisation à titre d'agents d'intervention rapide pour combattre les déversements d'hydrocarbures marins à grande échelle. Les agents ainsi produits auront à la fois des propriétés de gélification et de regroupage contre un vaste éventail de produits pétroliers allant de l'essence aux pétroles lourds, tels que le bitume dilué.
