Sometimes it pays to be a specialized, niche company. With the recent oil spill in The Gulf of Mexico, Advanced Clean Technologies (ACLH) stepped up and offered their services in the clean up which will take some time. 
Their wholly owned subsidiary, American Petroleum Solutions, has an oil extraction technology which should be able to remove over 99% of the oil from sand, clay and other earthy materials. This not only has benefits with the recent disaster, oil companies looking to maximize extraction from oil and tar sands also can use this technology.
Stock price for ACLH has jumped incredibly high in just a couple of days, growing over 1000%. Stock began to rise by late last Thursday and really took off Friday. As the spill progressed, more investors seemed to buy into the idea that ACLH would have a large role to play. 
When the oil reached the shore it was definite that ACLH would be an important contributor to the clean up efforts, and they announced as such yesterday.
Their cleaning technology is based in a liquefying solution, which allows oil, when in other material like sand, dirt or sludge, rise to the top easily. The use of high pressure hoses help as well, cutting through the sand particles to reach below the surface, making contact with oil that may have seeped deeper. This may not be the best for marshland, like seen in The Gulf of Mexico, having to tear through some of the vegetation growing there with the high pressure hoses, but since their solution is eco friendly it is far better than the alternative of leaving the oil sit there.
Advanced Clean Technologies Inc will be busy in the following weeks and months, and will gain recognition for their help. While working with the other major players in the oil industry to fix the spill, ACLH may be scouted to help with extraction for other projects that exist. If a strong marketing campaign is taken up by ACLH, be sure to expect another large boost in price, although it will unlikely be higher than the first.
ACLH is in a good position to benefit from this unfortunate disaster, keep an eye on the progression of the spill, and know that the more the coast is afflicted, the bigger a job ACLH will have to do, which is what pushed stock prices up in the first place.
