Can anyone suggest an experiment where we can determine the best substance to clean up grease or oil spills?

Hi patty_r66 - Here is one project on the Science Buddies site that deals with this subject. The difficulty level may be lower than your requirements, so look carefully at the variations as well:

Here is another project which is an "Abbreviated Project Idea." This one doesn't contain a full procedure but is an idea that can help get you started creating your own project:
