Application of Natural and Synthetic Microporous Materials for Oil Pollution Treatment: A Comparative Study
Konstantina Koukouza Michael Stamatakis Charalampos Vasilatos
The aim of this study was to indicate the probability of microporous materials, examined globally, in order to compare and ensure the best possible solution with regard to the absorption of petroleum products. By comparing different grain sizes and most of all different materials we can have a comprehensive picture of their potential use. Both on the basis of the composition and on the basis of the structure of each material, behaves differently, as a result it has a different capacity in terms of absorption in general and in particular in petroleum products. The result showed that oil absorption was highest by the natural clinoptilolite and motmorillonite mixture of Kimolos’ Island. Diatomite was characterized by the lowest sorption capacity with respect to the tested substances. The analyses also indicated the potential use of synthetic zeolites from lignite fly ash for the removal of oil spills. (EN)
