Popis: The feasibility of weathering petroleum in confined areas and under simulated conditions was explored. Four separate weathering systems were studied with as many as 60 different oils. Infrared spectra of oils weathered in these different systems were compared with each other and with unweathered oils using a computer ratio method. The results on an oil from an actual spill case showed that oils weathered in three of these systems to the same extent as oil taken from the spill.
