Upcycling Waste Pine nut Shell Membrane for Highly Efficient Separation of Crude Oil-in-Water Emulsion

Haoyu Li et al.

Summary: The discharge of oily sewage and frequent oil spills have caused serious harm to human production, life, and the ecological environment. The presence of surfactants in water makes oil-water mixtures form oil-in-water emulsions which are difficult to separate using traditional methods. The oily wastewater containing water-soluble pollutants like dyes and heavy metal ions also poses great harm to human health and the environment. A cost-efficient and environmentally friendly underwater superoleophobic pine nut shell membrane (PNSM) was prepared, which allows the separation of oil-in-water emulsion and adsorption of dyes and heavy metal ions. The PNSM also showed excellent toughness and flexibility, making it a promising candidate for multifunctional oily water remediation.

Carbon nanofiber based superhydrophobic foam composite for high performance oil/water separation

Zheng Guo et al.

Summary: The study presents a method to fabricate flexible and superhydrophobic foam composites for efficient oil/water separation by decorating carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with a hollow structure uniformly onto the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) foam skeleton. The CNFs not only enhance the surface roughness and hydrophobicity, but also act as numerous capillary tubes, improving oil adsorption and oil/water separation performance. The CNFs network with strong light absorption enables the foam material to have superior photo-thermal conversion capability, excellent corrosion resistance, and the ability to adsorb various kinds of oil with different densities, resulting in high oil/water separation efficiency.
