摘要

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing peat useful for absorbing oil and/or for the containment of oil present in water, and to an implement (1) for oil absorption and/or for the containment of oil present in water. The method comprises the use of block peat, which is removed from marshland in the form of sizable intact pieces with a volume of more than about 5000 ml, without disrupting the natural structure of the pieces. The pieces of block peat are rendered hydrophobic by drying and heating the same, either intact or cut into smaller pieces or sheets, to the temperature of at least 50 DEG C. Pieces of peat (3) rendered hydrophobic are used by connecting the same to each other for a boom (1) or a mat.
