Abstract
A hydrocarbon containment and control system consists of forming a porous woven container having at least one hand grip along one edge seam, at least one opening through a pair of opposed side walls but closed to the interior of the container and an open seam, filing the container through the open seam with an oleophilic-hydrophobic-lighter than water hydrocarbon absorbent, closing the open seam, and thereafter placing the filled container in the path of hydrocarbons to be selectively absorbed.
