The CSCC began as a research project from a chemical engineering student at North Carolina State University. We have now transitioned from a small scale research project to the Crude Spill Cleaning Company, in hopes of procuring funding and continuing to explore ways of improving outcomes for wildlife affected by oil spills. We are dedicated to researching and developing new and innovative methods of environmental cleanup. Mitigating such manmade environmental disasters as oil spills is not only an important cause, but a necessary one for the future of our world as a whole.
