An efficient auto-continuous globing process was developed with a self-built apparatus to synthesize pure silica aerogel microspheres (PSAMs) using sodium silicate as a precursor and water as a solvent. A hydrophobic silica aerogel microsphere (HSAM) was obtained by methyl grafting. A reinforced silica aerogel microsphere (RSAM) was prepared by polymer cross-linking on the framework of the silica gel. The pH value of the reaction system and the temperature of the coagulating bath were critical to form perfect SAMs with a diameter of 3.0 ± 0.2 mm. The grafted methyl groups are thermally stable up to 400 °C. Polymer cross-linking increased the strength significantly, owing to the polymer coating on the framework of silica aerogel. The pore volumes of HSAM (6.44 cm3/g) and RSAM (3.17 cm3/g) were much higher than their state-of-the-art counterparts. Their specific surface areas were also at a high level. The HSAM and RSAM showed high organic sorption capacities, i.e., 17.9 g/g of pump oil, 11.8 g/g of hexane, and 22.2 mg/g of 10 mg/L methyl orange. The novel preparation method was facile, cost-effective, safe, and eco-friendly, and the resulting SAM sorbents were exceptional in capacity, dynamics, regenerability, and stability.
