Scientists from the CSIRO – Australia’s national science agency – have developed new technology that starts with the humble domestic sponge. The sponge is coated with a special ‘superhydrophobic’ polymer, which makes it extremely efficient at separating oil from water emulsions. Best of all, they can be used after the bulk of the oil is removed (the ‘skimming operation’), when the oil is at extremely low – though still environmentally harmful – concentrations. The sponges are cheap and scalable, and can be easily recycled and reused. The team is now scaling the synthesis of the materials and carrying out larger scale trials with the ultimate goal of large scale deployment.
