Canada-based Harbo Technologies has launched an oil-spill blocking system that is compact and light enough to be installed at any site. The T-Fence boom is 1/15th of the weight of a traditional boom, and can be deployed within minutes of spill detection. As a result, it can be stored near high-risk areas to contain spills quickly before they spread, potentially preventing a major incident.
