Contents Notes
"The EPA's Releases Control Branch of the Hazardous Waste Engineering Research Laboratory has developed a rapid field test to evaluate the dispersibility of various commonly-transported oils to provide a data base for dispersant selection and application. The Field Dispersant Effectiveness Test (FDET) is designed to generate droplet sizes that closely resemble the dispersion of oil occurring at sea. A fixed mixing intensity and time induces the effects necessary to produce the dispersion and reveal the effectiveness of the dispersant and dispersibility of the oil."
