An oil spill is the release of liquid hydrocarbon into the environment especially in oceans and is a form of man-made disaster. 35.7% of oil spilt in oceans is from oil tanker vessels. This hugely affects the marine ecosystem and also tourism, marine economy and the human health. Thus, oil spill is a biological, economical and a social disaster. This paper idea aims to detect the oil spilt from vessels accurately and also as early possible with the help of different sensors and mechanisms. This idea not only stops at that but also makes use of an oil skimming that will be pressed into action as soon as oil spill is detected. An ESP8266 microcontroller, a GPS module and also Wi-Fi signals connected to an app interface to control the entire process. This idea is a true and unique solution that employs modern technologies like IoT as well as an app interface to detect and clean up the oil spilt making it highly stable, efficient and also economical. The bot which is used to clean up the oil spilt makes use of a driver module as well as belt-based skimming mechanism to do its job efficiently. We have designed this project to be controlled manually in case of any exegesis without much strain making the response without any time lag and making recovery as soon as possible.
