In current work, diffusion processes of oil spills through a thin layer of porous composite materials based on crumb rubber are investigated. Model setup includes a concept of layer built of crumb rubber particles (and composite constituents) distributed on the solid surface, gradually saturated by spilled oil product. Saturation crumb rubber layer with spilled oil taking into account a solid substrate is evaluated. In the current research the following COMSOL Multiphysics® 5.4 interfaces were used,  Chemical species Transport and Fluid flow. Examples of flow modeling through porous media presented in the COMSOL® Application Library have been analysed for current model setup. Modeling oil spills collection have demonstrated a correlation with experimental data obtained in laboratory experiments.
