Dear reader, before I start telling you my idea, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Ekaterina Loskutova, I am a 1st year student of the T.F. Gorbachev Kuzbass State Technical University, Institute of Chemical and Oil and Gas Technologies. Starting to write my work, I had the following goals and objectives in front of me: studying the already available theoretical and practical material on this topic. Creating a fantastic, at the moment, image to solve the problem I put forward. Since I am currently studying the material and conducting research on this topic, it became interesting for me to speculate how the question will develop in the future. As a result of reading my work, I can assume that the reaction of readers will be ambiguous. Someone will agree with my thoughts, someone will think that this cannot be, but I have no right to assess the reader's reaction, but I still hope that at the end of reading everyone will be impressed.

Today, the most important problem of the whole society is the environmental situation. Our planet is in a state that requires help. Why is this problem facing humanity now? I will try to give an answer to the question posed. First of all. recently, science has been actively developing in various fields that have a huge negative impact on the environment, secondly, people who do not appreciate the gifts presented by nature, and thirdly, raw materials supplied by various means of transportation, as a result of this process, leaks and emissions of toxic substances into the soil, water and atmosphere often occur. I would like to dwell on the third aspect in more detail, the transportation of raw materials for processing, the creation of new compounds is a huge problem for the whole world. Studying the material on this topic, I found an interesting question for myself: how is oil transported and the consequences of the spill eliminated? With what? Oil is the most important mineral, as well as the main substance in organic chemistry, because with different methods of processing it, we can get a lot of compounds and substances. All this is of course good, but spills often occur during transportation, causing harm to the surrounding world. Already in our time, they have come up with a way to eliminate the consequences of such transportation — these are sorbents. Sorbents, like a sponge, absorb all the oil from the surface of the reservoir. However, sorbents should also be disposed of later. There are various ways of processing oil sorbents, many of them do not improve, but only aggravate the ecological condition of the earth, these include, for example, the burial method, as a result of which repeated environmental pollution occurs, and in the combustion method both the sorbent and oil are generally lost, which actually does not give any positive results. Now the processing of sorbents is developing with the help of their regeneration. To date, science has known such methods of oil sorbent regeneration as:
Thermal
Physico-chemical
Mechanical
Biological
Each of the methods has its drawbacks, therefore, reasoning over the question posed, it can be assumed that by 2100 science will know ways to regenerate the sorbent without drawbacks or with insignificant ones, whether these are already existing methods or completely new ones. In my opinion, by 2100, for example, biological regeneration will take place much faster, since microorganisms capable of absorbing oil will be created artificially. If now both sorbents and microorganisms are required for this method, then in the future it will all be together at once. What are they - the microorganisms of the future? By 2100, these microorganisms will be robots with a built-in sorbent capable of collecting oil, as well as a beacon capable of determining the geolocation of an oil spill using sound waves, since each substance has a certain sound, it will be quite easy to determine, then a navigator will be built into the robots to help them swim to the leak site and back to the base. The sorption method, as now, will be adsorption. Because it is thanks to her that the sorbent can collect liquid substance with the help of its surface. The proposed method of collecting and refining oil can proceed as follows: all microorganisms will inhabit a specialized base that will have outlets to the water, in which, in fact, oil spills occur, robots will be sent from the base to the site of the oil spill, after their arrival, the sorbent built into them will collect oil from the surface of the water. One microorganism will be able to collect a sufficiently large amount of oil - 100g / 1g, after the sorbents absorb all the oil, the robots will be sent back to the base. Upon arrival in a permanent habitat, microorganisms will be subjected to heat treatment. Thermal processing will take place as follows: after the robot arrives at the base, the sorbent will be separated from the main body, as a result, the body will be sent for a new clean sorbent, and the contaminated sorbent will undergo a cleaning stage, by thermal regeneration carried out using high temperature (300-350 C), as a result a pure sorbent will be obtained, and the oil collected from the surface of the water will be sent for processing. The processed sorbent will be sent to the box, where the body will join it and go to collect oil again.
In conclusion of my reasoning, I would like to say that in 2100 there will be various ways of sorbent regeneration and processing, transportation of raw materials will become safer, which will thereby save humanity from an ecological catastrophe, but despite all scientific achievements in the present, future, nature conservation is impossible without human participation. Until people realize that most of the pollution comes from themselves, we will face this problem. Everyone can take just one step to save the planet: to separate garbage, to throw garbage in specialized places, not to cut down trees, while developing scientific potential to remember the negative consequences of the development of science and try to minimize them. I want to end my argument with a quote from Roman Khoroshev from the book revolution
"Until each of us begins to take care of the reuse of available resources, based on personal gain, we will continue to kill the nature in which we exist by chopping the branch on which we sit."[5].
