Sprayable Polyolefin Sorbents Enabled by Bio‐Solvents for Large‐Scale Oil and Chemical Spill Recovery

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A sprayable POE‐based sorbent formulated with a green solvent blend of α‐pinene, D‐limonene, and p‐cymene enables rapid in situ film formation via solvent evaporation, allowing efficient pollutant capture. The system exhibits high oil uptake (37.3 g g−1) and effectively removes up to 60 mL of VLSFO under simulated marine spill conditions.

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Torrefied Municipal Solid Waste Using Local Iron for Improved Bio‐Oil Yield and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Catalytic Pyrolysis of Torrefied Municipal Solid Waste to sustainable bio‐oil. ABSTRACT South Africa faces growing municipal solid waste (MSW) accumulation and energy insecurity due to fossil fuel dependence. Torrefaction improves MSW for waste‐to‐energy use, while conventional pyrolysis produces low‐quality oxygen‐rich bio‐oil.
