FIBROUS-WOOD SORBENT FOR ELIMINATING OIL POLLUTION

Abstract In this paper, we examine the possibility of eliminating oil pollution by using fibrous-wood sorbents on the basis of short wool fibres, technical hydrolysis lignin, wood sawdust and barks. The sorption ability of waste fibrous-wood materials has been investigated by determination of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). The special sorption patterns by net cover and fibrous-wood compositions as a nucleus have been prepared. The sorbents on the basis of technical hydrolysis lignin (THL) and wool shoddy have high sorption ability to oil pollution.
