Abstract:

Although the global economy continues to expand rapidly because of the exploitation and production of crude oil, its transportation and derivatives potentially remain a serious threat to the environment. Among many other challenges, oil spills remain major ecological and environmental concerns. Oil spills release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and heavy hydrocarbons into the aquatic environment causing severe damage to the ecosystem. The intensive development of the pharmaceutical, agricultural and chemical industries has resulted in the release of a diverse range of chemical compounds such as antibiotics, plastics, pesticides, and dyes into aquatic environments. These industries serve as major contributors towards the contamination of aquatic environments since manifold chemicals are discharged directly and very frequently into the environment. This study aims to develop effective, flexible, sustainable, and environmentally friendly adsorbent-based multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) composites by adding polymers and metal oxides which make MWCNTs cost-effective and increase their removal efficiency of hydrocarbons and dyes from water.
