Abstract
Methods for obtaining an elastomer product capable of absorbing petroleum and its by products including the steps of forming a mixture of waste vulcanized rubber, resin and organic solvent, grinding the mixture in a mill in the presence of manganese to produce a slurry of very small particles of a reclaimed rubber, and drying the slurry which results in porous elastomer particles which are capable of absorbing petroleum and its by-products.
