Assessment of Ceiba Pentandra (L.) Gaertn. (Kapok) as Absorbent Material for Oil Spill Control

A biomass product, kapok (Ceiba pentandra), identified as having high oil absorption capacity was thoroughly assessed for its feasibility to be used as an absorbent material for oil spill control. The effect of packing density on the oil retention and the capability to separate the binary oil-water...
