Modified sponge could recover oil contaminants from Arctic waters – Phys.org
Researchers have developed a sustainable and economical way to recover oil from ultra-cold industrial wastewater and oil spills.
Researchers have developed a sustainable and economical way to recover oil from ultra-cold industrial wastewater and oil spills.
Scientists from Imperial College London and the University of Toronto have designed a sponge that can remove hard-to-recover oil from Artic waters. Their research builds on previously developed sponge technology to target specific challenges with recovering oil from ultra-cold water.
The findings, published in Science Advances, present an economical and sustainable method…
