High removal performance of dissolved oil from aqueous solution by sorption using fatty acid esterified pineapple leaves as novel sorbents

This paper demonstrates the potential use of the lignocellulosic biomass of pineapple leaves (PALs) as an oil sorbent by mercerization and esterification with long chain fatty acids in order to enhance the surface hydrophobicity and thus the oil sorption capacity for the treatment of dissolved oil c...
