Most cat litter is made of clay. Clay absorbes oils. When there is oil spilled on concrete take some kitty litter and pour it on the oil. You may need to rub it back and forth with a broom. This will absorb most but not all of the oil.
Rather than using traditional clay products like kitty litter, you might consider a "green" family of oil absorbent products. There are many products available online, including OilMaster. These products were developed at Cornell University and are made from renewable agricultural waste products. OilMaster has three loose granular products - 7X, SpeedyBlend, and EconoZorb - all of which are more absorbent than the normal clay absorbents. In addition, none of them contain hazardous dust, like most of the clay products. Each of the OilMaster products was developed for different uses. The best product for use on a concrete driveway would be EconoZorb, which contains a natural whitening dust that will hide the stain.
