The Visualant SPM technology, with its ability to map color at the photon level both within the humanly visible spectrum as well as in the near infra-red and near ultra-violet, can be used as a diagnostic tool for a host of environmental applications.
These include determining the presence of foreign substances such as oil in water and determining water quality among many others.
Javelin co-founder Peter Purdy said that the recent experience with the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and the significant damage it caused prompts us to focus Javelin’s attention on utilizing the Visualant SPM technology to determine the presence of oil in water and adulterates in oil.
