Abstract At the present time ecological safety questions occupy one of priority positions. This is especially important when objects in the Arctic water areas and the freezing seas are projecting. Nature and climatic features of these areas limit use of traditional methods of oil spill response. The analysis of response activities in various climatic and natural conditions has shown that one of the well-proven methods is sorption purification. The laboratory data have served the preliminary stage for correcting sorbents (Lessorb, Exfoliated Graphite Sorbent (EGS), Peat Dust Oil Sorbent (PDOS), Biomatrix technical passports and selecting their best quantities for oil spill response under various temperatures including low value in the marine environment.
