Water Remediation Based on Oil Adsorption Using Nanosilicates Functionalized with a Petroleum Vacuum Residue
Discharging water from oilfields has become one of the major environmental issues related to the oil industry. This work presents a study on the adsorption of oil onto nanoparticles of hydrophobic silica and silica nanoparticles functionalized with a petroleum vacuum residue (VR) at 2 and 4 wt% to r...
