In this work, a number of experimental studies to determine effective soot by burning waste oils were carried out. The raw materials used waste oil from service stations to replace oil cars. Used oil burned using a conventional wick, by impregnating carbon and glass fiber fabric. The results showed that the surface of the soot produced by burning waste oil has a hydrophobic property to the wetting angle 145-1500. The experimental research on the production of soot by burning waste oils showed that the combustion of 100 grams of oil, depending on the combustion conditions can be obtained from 0.5 to 1.5 grams of soot. And, also was determined the elemental composition and the surface functional groups of hydrophobic sand by IR-spectroscopy. Flexible hydrophobic self-destroying carpet on the basis of hydrophobic sand was developed and built. For comparison was conducted studies of growth process of potato in the soil layer of earth on the surface of the usual soil and on the surface-degradable hydrophobic carpet based on hydrophobic sand under greenhouse conditions.
