“…Thermal treatment at low temperatures, i.e., drying, does not affect the oleophilic and hydrophobic properties of the sorbent ( Figure 4 ). Its main effect is to remove some impurities of the surface, allowing easier adsorption of oil [ 34 ]. On the other hand, a high-temperature thermal treatment like pyrolysis [ 57 ] leads to the carbonization of the sorbent.…”

“…Moreover, they were reusable for two absorption/desorption cycles [ 62 ]. Τhe surface alteration of thermally treated natural-based materials is reflected in the SEM images of El Gheriany’s study [ 34 ]. The SEM images ( Figure 5 a) revealed that the originally smooth and homogeneous structure of the raw orange peel appeared rough and of high porosity after thermal decomposition at 500 °C.…”

“…Currently, there is growing interest in finding inexpensive, abundant, and effective materials as oil spill sorbents in water, focusing on natural organic sorbents mainly from agriculture ( Figure 2 ). A wide variety of cellulosic materials such as banana fibers [ 27 ], corn stalk [ 25 ], cotton [ 28 ], milkweed fiber [ 29 ] curauna fibers [ 30 ], kapok [ 31 ], luffa [ 32 ], nettle fibers [ 33 ], orange peel [ 34 ], palm fibers [ 35 ], pineapple leaves [ 36 ], pistia leaves and roots [ 37 ], pomelo peel [ 38 ], rice husks [ 39 ], sawdust [ 40 ], wheat straw [ 41 ], sugarcane bagasse [ 42 ], and walnut shell [ 43 ] have shown good results, making them potential candidates for oil spill treatment.…”

Conventional synthetic sorbents for oil spill removal are the most widely applied materials, although they are not the optimal choices from an economic and environmental point of view. The use of inexpensive, abundant, non-toxic, biodegradable, and reusable lignocellulosic materials might be an alternative to conventional sorbents, with obvious positive impact on sustainability and circular economy. The objective of this paper was to review reports on the use of natural-based adsorbing materials for the restoration of water bodies threatened by oil spills. The use of raw and modified natural sorbents as a restoration tool, their sorption capacity, along with the individual results in conditions that have been implemented, were examined in detail. Modification methods for improving the hydrophobicity of natural sorbents were also extensively highlighted. Furthermore, an attempt was made to assess the advantages and limitations of each natural sorbent since one material is unlikely to encompass all potential oil spill scenarios. Finally, an evaluation was conducted in order to outline an integrated approach based on the terms of material–environment–economy.

“…Natural fibers are among the alternatives for oily wastewater treatment for their simplicity, excellent oil removal properties, environmentally friendly characteristics and easy availability and feasibility (Shi et al, 2019;Do et al, 2020;El-Gheriany et al, 2020). It was found that investments in natural sorbents as a sustainable oil spill cleanup technique will overcome the limitations of existing cleanup techniques (Wahi et al, 2013;Kyzas and Kostoglou, 2014).…”

The conservation of ocean and freshwater have been crucial issues over the past decades, and oil/water separation is a well‐known technology to restore polluted water systems. In the meantime, oil sorbents serve as a promising means of achieving water conservation to recover from oil spills, which require a multi‐factorial approach to review high selectivity, capacity, and rate of oil recovery. However, reusability is a critical component to consider in incidents with large‐scale spills. With the development of sorbent technology, some studies have progressed to explore surface engineering and material design for high oil sorption capacity and durability. Thus, this systemic review, a summary of sorbent developments, serves as a guide to understanding practical applications that can apply to large‐scale oil spills and recognize remaining issues. In this review, the oil weathering process and oil sorption mechanisms in relation to the characteristics of target pollutants are introduced. Then, this comprehensive review focuses on materials in advanced sorbents. These materials have properties including, aligned channels for fast sorption, self‐heating capabilities for viscous oil cleanup, and magnetic‐responsiveness to enhance a collection of final products. The perspective and challenges for the next generation of oil spills remediation technology‐based oil sorbents materials are finally presented in the last section.
